Data dump from the Research Organization Registry (ROR), a community-led registry of open identifiers for research organizations.

\n

Release v2.12 contains ROR IDs and metadata for 137,398 research organizations in JSON and CSV format, in schema version 2. This includes the addition of 1688 new records and metadata updates to 2990 existing records. See the release notes.

\n

Data format

\n

Beginning with release v2.0 on 16 December 2025, data releases contain JSON and CSV files formatted only for schema v2. In addition, v2 files will no longer have `_schema_v2` appended to the end of the filename, ex v2.0-2025-12-16-ror-data.json. 

\n

The CSV file contains a subset of fields from the JSON file, some of which have been flattened for easier parsing. As ROR records and the ROR schema are maintained in JSON, the CSV is for convenience only. JSON is the format of record.

\n

Release versioning

\n

Beginning with data release 2.0, files in the ROR Data dump on Zenodo will no longer include CSV and JSON files of the registry in the v1 schema. The ROR API default version is v2 as of July 2025, and v1 of the ROR API and dataset has been deprecated entirely, as of 8 December 2025. The data dump major version has been incremented to 2 per below.

\n

Data releases are versioned as follows:

\n\n

For convenience, the date is also included in the release file name, ex: v2.0-2025-12-16-ror-data.zip.
