Before you connect

Questions about Zenodo.

The practical details behind the request, access and result.

Can I use the Zenodo MCP to upload my research files?

Yes, you can use the upload capability to add text files directly to your depositions from your AI client.

How do I manage metadata without opening the Zenodo website?

The Connector lets your agent update titles, creators, and descriptions for you through plain language commands.

Can I delete a research record that is already published?

No, Zenodo doesn't allow deleting live records. You can only delete unpublished drafts using the Connector.

Is this Zenodo MCP good for finding existing datasets?

Yes, it can search the entire public database for specific research topics and return the relevant records.

How do I keep track of different versions of my research?

You can use the versioning capabilities to create and manage new versions of your depositions as your work evolves.

Does this work with Cursor or Claude?

Yes, it connects to any MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf.

Can I delete a deposition that has already been published?

No. The delete_deposition capability only works for unpublished depositions. Once a record is published on Zenodo, it is permanent to ensure scientific traceability.

How can I search for public datasets about a specific topic?

You can use the list_records capability with a search query. For example, ask the agent to 'Search Zenodo records for climate change' and it will return matching public entries.

Is it possible to see which files are included in a deposition before downloading them?

Yes! Use the list_deposition_files capability with the Deposition ID. The agent will provide a list of all filenames and metadata associated with that specific deposition.
