- Are Figshare items included in Google Dataset Search results?

Yes, Figshare items with the type dataset are included in Google Dataset Search results. This is achieved by including [schema.org](https://schema.org/)[JSON-LD](https://json-ld.org/) markup in the public item’s metadata HTML pages. For example, for [https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.5590852.v1](https://doi.org/10.6084/m9.figshare.5590852.v1) the following markup is included:

You can test the JSON-LD markup of any public Figshare dataset using[Google’s Structured Data testing tool.](https://search.google.com/structured-data/testing-tool) The general discoverability tips elsewhere in this guide can help improve your dataset’s visibility in Google Dataset Search; don’t hesitate to contact us at support@figshare.com if you spot any issues or require further information!
