Description

invalid_request: Missing parameter: redirect_uri — "" does not match registered client ""

This error has been reported a few times. It is indicative of an incorrect URL entered into ORCID during configuration.

We had some troubleshooting notes (private link), and want to combine these with the public doc on ORCID config as that means only one place to look, and they could be useful for others managing their own installs.

Type Redirect URI
Press (and everything within it) https://<press-domain>/
Individual Journal — domain config https://<journal-domain>/
Individual Journal — no press and on path config https://<press-domain>/<journal_code>/login/orcid/
