DataCite: Setup automated search on Organisation level

An automated search on organisational level for DataCite will ensure that new content in DataCite that will match the configuration will be flagged as a new import candidate. This way you do not have to search DataCite regularly to keep you content up to date.

 

To enable automated search on Organisation level you must modify the DataCite configuration in  Administration > Dataset > Datacite > Automated search on organisation level

After enabling this setting a search profile needs to be set up in the organisation where you with to import records. This can be done on the Organisation editor > Automated search

Once the “Search for import candidate” job as run, the results will appear as Candidates available for import in Editor > Datasets > Organisations with import candidates

Any changes to DataCite configuration, such as modifying the types to import or adding/removing names in the automated search profile, will delete your current import candidates. These candidates will be re-added when the “Search for import candidates” job runs again, ensuring that your import candidates always reflect your most up-to-date search criteria.
