DOI configuration
Overview
Digital Object Identifiers (DOIs) are a cornerstone of data citation and reproducibility. Redivis provides support for issuing DOIs through your institutional membership in either DataCite or EZID. By configuring DOI credentials within your organization's settings, you'll then be able to issue DOIs for any of the organization's datasets.
For more information about the DOI lifecycle for Redivis datasets, you can learn more in the dataset DOI documentation >
Configuration
If your organization is part of an institution, and the institution has already specified a DOI configuration, you can choose to inherit the institution's configuration.
Otherwise, in order to configure DOIs, you will need to specify:
Provider type
Either DataCite or EZID
Repository account ID
The account ID, or username, associated with the provider
Repository account password
The associated password for the account
DOI prefix
The prefix assigned to your repository. E.g., 10.82053
Default DOI behavior
Whether to automatically issue DOIs by default for all future created datasets. This will not change the DOI behavior of any existing datasets.
Back-issuing DOIs
Upon configuring DOI credentials for the first time, you will be presented with the option to enable DOI issuance for all of your existing datasets. If enabled, all existing datasets will have DOI issuance turned on, and a DOI will be issued for every (non-deleted) version of your existing datasets.
Like other DOIs on Redivis, after 7 days these DOIs will become permanent.
If you would prefer to back-issue DOIs for your datasets on a case-by-case basis, you can instead turn this option off, and go to each individual dataset's settings and configure DOI issuance there.
