# HKU ITS API Developer Portal and Gateway

**Canonical:** https://apis.io/apis/hku/its-api-portal/  
**Provider:** University of Hong Kong — https://apis.io/providers/hku/  
**Base URL:** https://api.hku.hk  
**Documentation:** https://developer.hku.hk/

HKU ITS API Developer Portal and Gateway is one of 7 APIs that [University of Hong Kong](https://apis.io/providers/hku/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Developer Portal, API Gateway, Artificial Intelligence, Gated, and Azure API Management. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

HKU Information Technology Services runs an Azure API Management gateway at api.hku.hk and a developer portal at developer.hku.hk. Since 17 March 2026 the portal has issued subscription keys to students as well as staff for chat-completion, embedding and image-generation APIs across several hosted models. The gateway is live and answers in the APIM error envelope ({"statusCode":404,"message":"Resource not found"}), but every portal route — /apis, /docs/services — redirects to /signin, so the API catalog, its specifications, its scopes and its rate limits are not publicly enumerable. Catalogued as a real institution-operated surface whose contract is not published, not as an absence.
