Description

Overview of the Feature Request

Support ORCID links (and other currently supported ids) on the frontend, making these identifiers clickable and navigable to the corresponding landing pages.

In the current Dataverse UI, this logic is handled in the frontend side (JSF), so it is not straightforward to return these links via API (See: https://github.com/IQSS/dataverse/pull/7979). It is necessary to rethink the existing solution and find the optimal balance between frontend and backend logic to support this functionality.

This issue will potentially split into more spike issues.

Research direction

Start with the related dataverse-frontend issue #115 and the linked Dataverse PR #7979, then trace how identifier links are currently handled in the JSF frontend. Define the frontend/backend split for ORCID and other supported identifiers; done means SPA users can click author identifiers and reach the corresponding landing pages.
