Affiliation parameter
ROR REST API v2This page documents v2 of the ROR REST API. For v1 documentation of the ROR REST API, see https://ror.readme.io/v1/docs/api-affiliation. You can also read more about ROR API versions and a summary of what's new in Schema 2.0 and Schema 2.1.
Version 1 of the ROR schema and API will be sunset in December 2025In December 2025, version 1 of the ROR schema and API will be sunset, meaning that ROR API requests with v1 in the path will no longer return a response, v1 files will no longer be included in the ROR data dump, and v1 documentation will no longer be available. Read more in our changelog.
About the affiliation parameter
For many years, publishers of scholarly information often captured author and contributor affiliation information as unstructured data, sometimes storing an organization's name, a sub-unit or department's name, a street address, and a geographical location along with copious irregular punctuation as a text string in a single field. Some affiliation strings even include multiple affiliations.
The affiliation parameter of the ROR API is designed to help match these messy text strings to ROR records to produce cleaner affiliation data. The affiliation service attempts to find the ROR record that is the most probable match for the given affiliation string; if it finds a likely candidate, it returns that result with a chosen:true value. Additional possibilities that might match the string are also included in results, listed in descending order by confidence score.
An API-based approach to matching affiliation strings to ROR IDs can work well for large-scale systems where human review of every proposed match is impractical, but no large-scale programmatic approach to matching is perfect, especially since there are many similar and even identical names and acronyms among research organizations globally. Often, the matching service will not be able to suggest a match for a particular string, and in some cases, the matching service might suggest an incorrect match. Human review is always the best fallback.
Consider a different method of matching if you have structured organization dataYou can also match organization data to ROR IDs using the ?query parameter or ?query.advanced parameter with filters and field-specific queries. If your data is structured such that it separately stores an organization's name, city, country, website, and organizational identifiers such as GRID, Wikidata, or Funder IDs, we recommend that you use the ?query parameter or ?query.advanced parameter of the ROR API to match your data to ROR.
Formatting searches
All request strings must be URL-encoded. The affiliation parameter is specifically designed to handle strings with punctuation, special characters, and spaces, so it is not necessary to enclose multi-term search strings in quotation marks or to escape special characters.
Paging and filtering
The affiliation parameter does not accept filters and results are not paginated. If filter syntax is added to the end of an affiliation search, the terms will be treated as part of the affiliation search. All results will be returned, not just the first 20, since matching strategies typically return a small number of results. Results are listed in descending order by matching confidence score.
Be aware of differences between the affiliation parameter and the query parametersUnlike the ?query parameter and the ?query.advanced parameter, the affiliation parameter does not accept filters, and results are not paginated -- all results will be returned, not just the first 20. If filter syntax is added to the end of an affiliation search, the terms will be treated as part of the affiliation search.
Also unlike the query and advanced query parameters, the affiliation parameter expects multi-word strings that include spaces, punctuation, and special characters. Surrounding terms in quotation marks or escaping special characters can produce worse results when using the affiliation parameter.
Multisearch strategy
The default matching strategy for the ROR API affiliation parameter, in place since November 2019, breaks long search strings into separate substrings, performing multiple searches with these values and limiting results to records matching any countries that can be derived from the text. It then returns (if possible) the most likely match to a ROR record, as identified by a chosen:true indicator.
Additional candidates also appear in the results list and are ranked in descending order by confidence score. Only results with a score of at least .5 are returned. No more than one record in the results list receives a chosen:true indicator, and that record (if present) will always be listed first.
Affiliation parameter multisearch format
https://api.ror.org/v2/organizations?affiliation=[URL-encoded-string]
The matching types used in the multisearch strategy include the following:
PHRASE: the entire phrase was matched to a variant of the organization's nameCOMMON TERMS: the matching was done by comparing the words separatelyFUZZY: the matching was done by a fuzzy comparison of the words separatelyHEURISTICS: "University of X" was matched to "X University"ACRONYM: matched by acronymEXACT: exact match of the entered string in name values in thenamesfield excluding acronyms
Example
The default multisearch strategy allows you to find a matching ROR record for a long, complex affiliation text string such as "Department of Civil and Industrial Engineering, University of Pisa, Largo Lucio Lazzarino 2, Pisa 56126, Italy".
curl 'https://api.ror.org/v2/organizations?affiliation=Department%20of%20Civil%20and%20Industrial%20Engineering%2C%20University%20of%20Pisa%2C%20Largo%20Lucio%20Lazzarino%202%2C%20Pisa%2056126%2C%20Italy' | json_ppThe first item in the results list, the ROR record for the University of Pisa, has a chosen value of true, indicating that the affiliation service considers this record a sufficiently likely match to the text string. Not all affiliation searches will produce a "chosen" result.
The matching_type is given as "COMMON TERMS", indicating the method by which the affiliation parameter chose the matching record. The confidence score is 1, the highest possible level of confidence in the match. Results are listed in descending order by matching confidence score.
The substring used to find the match in this case is "Department of Civil and Industrial Engineering University of Pisa Largo Lucio Lazzarino 2 Pisa Italy", or the entire text content of the entered string excluding punctuation and the numeric postcode.

}Example
The default multisearch strategy uses multiple search algorithms to find matching ROR records for complex affiliation text strings such as "International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP), Trieste, Italy".
curl 'https://api.ror.org/v2/organizations?affiliation=International%20Centre%20for%20Theoretical%20Physics%20(ICTP),%20Trieste,%20Italy' | json_ppThe ROR record for the Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) has a chosen value of true, indicating that the affiliation service considers this record a sufficiently likely match to the text string. Not all affiliation searches will produce a "chosen" result.
The matching_type is given as "PHRASE", indicating the method by which the affiliation parameter chose the matching record. The confidence score is .95, with 1 being the highest possible level of confidence in the match. Results are listed in descending order by matching confidence score.
The substring used to find the match in this case is "International Centre for Theoretical Physics ICTP", which is the text of the organization name and its acronym excluding punctuation and the organization's location in Trieste, Italy.

}Single search strategy
As of November 2025, the affiliation parameter also supports a single search strategy that outperforms the multisearch strategy in terms of precision and recall while also being faster and more computationally efficient.
Affiliation parameter single search format
https://api.ror.org/v2/organizations?affiliation=[URL-encoded-string]&single_search
The single search matching strategy uses only a single query to find potential matches between affiliation strings and ROR records. Unlike the multisearch strategy, the single search strategy does not break up the search string into substrings, but instead always uses the entirety of the text string as the search term.
Example
The single search strategy allows you to find a matching ROR record for a long, complex affiliation text string such as "Department of Urology, Grenoble Alpes University Hospital, Université Grenoble Alpes, CNRS, Grenoble INP, TIMC-IMAG, Grenoble, France".
curl 'https://api.ror.org/v2/organizations?affiliation=Department%20of%20Urology,%20Grenoble%20Alpes%20University%20Hospital,%20Universit%C3%A9%20Grenoble%20Alpes,%20CNRS,%20Grenoble%20INP,%20TIMC-IMAG,%20Grenoble,%20France&single_search' | json_pp The first item in the results list, the ROR record for Université Grenoble Alpes, has a chosen value of true, indicating that the affiliation service considers this record a sufficiently likely match to the text string. Not all affiliation searches will produce a "chosen" result.
The matching_type is given as "SINGLE SEARCH", which will always be the case for queries that use the &single_search parameter. The confidence score for the match is 1, the highest possible level of confidence in the match. Results are listed in descending order by matching confidence score.
The substring used to find the match in this case is "Department of Urology, Grenoble Alpes University Hospital, Université Grenoble Alpes, CNRS, Grenoble INP, TIMC-IMAG, Grenoble, France", which is the entirety of the text string including punctuation.

}No matches found
When there's no result with the chosen:true indicator (meaning that all results of a query are chosen:false) it can mean that the string does not include enough information for the algorithm to find a match, or that there are several good matches but no clear winner, or that the organization is not in ROR. If there is no result with chosen:true, some additional review by humans or machines is almost always needed.
Don't automatically select the first result of an ?affiliation queryWhen no result has the
chosen: trueindicator, there might be no match with a high score, or several results might have the exact same score. In these cases, it is best to respect the absence of thechosen:trueindicator and leave the string unmatched or add an additional layer of human or machine matching, at your discretion.
Example
An affiliation string such as "UCL School of Slavonic and East European Studies" does not contain enough identifying information for the ROR API affiliation matching service to choose a matching ROR record.
curl 'https://api.ror.org/v2/organizations?affiliation=UCL%20School%20of%20Slavonic%20and%20East%20European%20Studies' | json_ppThe response returns results with confidence scores ranging from .7 to .54 listed in descending order, but the affiliation matching service does not rate any of these results as a recommended match.

## Example
The affiliation string "CNRS-CRHEA, rue Bernard Grégory, 06560 Valbonne, France" represents an organization that is not in ROR, and therefore the ROR API affiliation matching service cannot find a matching ROR record.
```curl
curl 'https://api.ror.org/v2/organizations?affiliation=CNRS-CRHEA,%20rue%20Bernard%20Gr%C3%A9gory,%2006560%20Valbonne,%20France&single_search' | json_pp
```
The response returns results with confidence scores ranging from .82 to .74 listed in descending order, but the affiliation matching service does not rate any of these results as a recommended match.
