Ability to create a set of researchers using Internal Researcher ID
As part of smart harvest and CDI migration (i.e. adding assets in bulk via DOI or PMID or PMCID) we get a lot of non-affiliated researchers. Unfortunately, non-affiliated people may be conflated. We would like to add basic keywords to non-affiliated researchers (for example, co-authors on Nursing publications could have the keyword "Nursing" which would make it more obvious to the matching algorithm that they are not in Geology). The current functionality allows us to add keywords to a set of researchers, but we lack a way to easily make a set of non-affiliated researchers. We can get the internal researcher ID via analytics, but this does not seem to be usable as input to create as set. We also cannot find any other potential identifier that would work for non-affiliated researchers.

Hi,
there is an option to Import Non-affiliated researchers (Researcher > Import Non-Affiliated).
We also add the option to bulk update researchers (affiliated or non-affiliated) and this includes the option to add research topics (Admin --> Run a job --> Update Set of Researchers)

This is not about importing a set of researchers, nor is it about actually updating them. The issue is how to efficiently make a set of non-affiliated researchers so that the update process may be run. I do not believe you can currently make a set of non-affiliated researcher in any batch way.
