# ANU Open Research DSpace REST API

**Canonical:** https://apis.io/apis/anu/openresearch-rest/

**Documentation:** https://openresearch-repository.anu.edu.au/

ANU Open Research DSpace REST API is one of 6 APIs that [Australian National University](https://apis.io/providers/anu/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Repository, REST, HAL, DSpace, and Research. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

The HAL+JSON REST API of ANU's self-hosted DSpace 7.6.7 repository, reachable anonymously at /server/api for the root and discovery resources; /server/api/core/items returns 401, so the surface is genuinely access-controlled rather than uniformly open. Recorded as an ANU-operated surface because ANU runs the instance on its own infrastructure, but no specification is saved for it: the contract shape is DSpace's upstream design, not ANU engineering, and saving a generic DSpace spec under an institution's slug is precisely the misattribution this profile exists to avoid.
