What Is It Used for

The author ID is the Scopus' tool to distinguish different authors and build your author profile in the database. It helps managing publication lists and citations.


How to Get One

All authors with publications indexed by Scopus have automatically been assigned a Scopus author ID. To check your ID, Search for a Scopus Profile.


How to Edit Your Author Profile

You can merge your publications with the Author feedback wizard if your publications are spread over a number of different author profiles. Run an author search and click on the author's name. Then, click on "Edit profile". For further instructions, check the Author Feedback Wizard FAQ.
