Hi everyone
“The following requirements must be met before this can be published.
I click on the contributors part and click the check box in ORCID Authorization part for sending authorization link to the author…
when author wants to verify the authorization link this error appears on orcid site:
"Error: The provided client id is invalid.
Hi @monirehbastami ,
Can you please indicate which version of the ORCID plugin and which specfic version of OJS you are using (e.g. 3.3.0-13)?
Thank you,
Roger
thanks for your attention
And which version of the ORCID plugin (you can check this in the plugin gallery)?

I use OJS version 3.2.1.4 and orcidProfile-v1_1_2-28 (version suitable for OJS 3.2) and I have the same problem, I thought it was only a problem of older versions of OJS.
There is a discussion in Git Hub, I do not know if the discussions should be done in GitHub or in this forum.

**Describe the bug**
**To Reproduce**
Steps to reproduce the behavior:
1. With orcidProfile-v1_1_2-28 version
2. After requesting a publication author the authorization for binding ORCID
3. And after the author received the email and click the "Register or connect your ORCID iD" link
4. And after he log in in ORCID and authorize
5. The "ORCID authorization link has already been used or is invalid" message is shown.
**Expected behavior**
A successfully binding is expected.
**Additional context**
The issue is related with the interaction with ORCID API, after the users authorized, a request is made to ORCID to grab a token using the URL:
```
https://pub.orcid.org/oauth/token
```
but Orcid is retrieving an `307 Temporary Redirect HTTP Code` to a different URL:
```
https://orcid.org/oauth/token
```
currently the orcidProfile plugin doesn't know how to deal with this redirect, so that error is shown.
A quick workaround for this is to change the `ORCID_API_URL_PUBLIC` setting to:
``` php
define('ORCID_API_URL_PUBLIC', 'https://orcid.org/');
```
In the discussion, a person found a temporal solution to the problem, maybe it helps you too. I am still trying if it works in my journals.

Isn’t the proper solution, but to have still working you can change this line:
use PKP\plugins\Hook;
use PKP\plugins\PluginRegistry;
use PKP\services\PKPSchemaService;
use PKP\submission\PKPSubmission;
use PKP\submission\reviewAssignment\ReviewAssignment;
use PKP\submission\reviewAssignment\ReviewAssignmentDAO;
use Sokil\IsoCodes\Database\Countries\Country;
define('ORCID_URL', 'https://orcid.org/');
define('ORCID_URL_SANDBOX', 'https://sandbox.orcid.org/');
define('ORCID_API_URL_PUBLIC', 'https://pub.orcid.org/');
define('ORCID_API_URL_PUBLIC_SANDBOX', 'https://pub.sandbox.orcid.org/');
define('ORCID_API_URL_MEMBER', 'https://api.orcid.org/');
define('ORCID_API_URL_MEMBER_SANDBOX', 'https://api.sandbox.orcid.org/');
define('ORCID_API_VERSION_URL', 'v3.0/');
define('ORCID_API_SCOPE_PUBLIC', '/authenticate');
define('ORCID_API_SCOPE_MEMBER', '/activities/update');
define('OAUTH_TOKEN_URL', 'oauth/token');
define('ORCID_EMPLOYMENTS_URL', 'employments');
define('ORCID_PROFILE_URL', 'person');
define('ORCID_EMAIL_URL', 'email');
from:
define('ORCID_API_URL_PUBLIC', 'https://pub.orcid.org/');
to:
define('ORCID_API_URL_PUBLIC', 'https://orcid.org/');
and it will work (you may need to save plugin configs at the interface after this change - save without change anything).
Hello @RCUB ,
Thank you for the additional information. @Dulip_Withanage : are you able to speak to this?

Thanks for this report.
The reason for these errors was a recent renaming of the Orcid.org public API URL.
We have released an update for all major releases to reflect the changes in the Orcid API URL.
Please install the plugin for your OJS version from the OJS Plugin Gallery.
