Your test (https://doi.test.datacite.org/) and production (https://doi.datacite.org/) Fabrica account userIDs are the same with different prefixes assigned.
Keep in mind that DataCite’ test system is completely separate from production.
Accessing DataCite Fabrica
Requirements:
-
Repository account ID
-
Password
Login procedure
-
Go to https://doi.datacite.org/ (test: https://doi.test.datacite.org/)
-
Click on the upper right hand corner of the screen and enter your account ID and password
-
Once logged in, you will be presented with your Repository Dashboard which gives you:
-
the account information overview which includes the name of the Repository and the total number of DOIs.
-
repository settings
-
the prefix(es) assigned to your repository
-
list of all DOIs minted by the repository
The way the DataCite Fabrica system works is that there is no way to edit or update the organisation name or repository ID once it’s created. If there is a valid business need to change the organisation member ID and/or repository ID, the only way to do this is by creating a new repository under a new consortium organisation. DataCite would then transfer the DOIs and prefix from the old repository to the newly created account. Send an email to services@ardc.edu.au if you require a change in account ID.
You, however, can change your repository name when you are logged in to Fabrica.
