More than 90% of ROR API users are using version 2 of the ROR API and schema, which is the recommended, stable version. Remember that version 1 will be deprecated in December 2025: doi.org/10.71938/y9p...
Timeline for the Sunset of Version 1 of the ROR API and Schema
Version 2 of the ROR API will become the query default in July 2025, and version 1 of the ROR API and dataset will be deprecated entirely in December 2025.

🔍 Builds trust through transparency
📑 Meets funder requirements
📈 Boosts discoverability & impact

bioRxiv now has an easy way to add standardized funder info at the time of submission.
