Grant access to a trusted individual

You can designate trusted individuals who have an ORCID iD to update your ORCID record, or remove trusted individuals from your ORCID record.

To designate a trusted individual on an ORCID record, both the researcher and the trusted individual must have an ORCID ID.
Please follow the steps below:

1. Login to ORCID record at https://orcid.org/signin.
2. Click the "Accounts Settings" tab in the menu bar above your ORCID record.
3. Scroll down to the "Trusted individuals" section.
4. In the search box, enter the ORCID ID, e-mail address, or name of the person you want to make a trusted individual, then click "Search".

If you enter an email address or ORCID iD, a pop-up box will ask you to confirm adding that user as a trusted individual, click "Add". A user must have an ORCID iD before you can make him a trusted individual.  

 

   Tips!
You can also grant permission to the Library's ORCID record to help you manage your ORCID. To do this, please add "liborcid@ln.edu.hk" to your list of trusted individuals.

If you search for a trusted individual by name, a list of matching ORCID records will be listed. Click on the "Add" button next to the name of the user you wish to make a trusted individual, or click on the user's name to be taken to their ORCID record.
