So that I can display the ID in the recommended format

I need to harvest information from ORCID public profiles

So that I can populate item records with information

Tier 2 (private) API connection

As a repository connecting to ORCID through this system

I need to communicate with ORCID

So that I can authenticate ORCID IDs
