The Node Drive Panel does not only contain the Drive, but also has a tab for Contributors. This is where you add the names and information of those who have contributed to the Node.

When opening the Contributors tab in the control panel on the left, click on the '+' button in the top right, next to the title 'Contributors'.

Hit 'Continue' to add the contributor.
You can view the contributor and any additional data imported from an associated ORCID profile.
