Indian Institute of Technology Delhi

IIT Delhi Institutional Repository DSpace REST API

The IIT Delhi Central Library institutional repository runs on DSpace 8.0 and exposes the standard DSpace REST/HAL API at /server/api on the institute's own host. The root endpoint is public and advertises dspaceVersion "DSpace 8.0", an authn link and roughly seventy resource links; discovery search answers anonymously; core content endpoints such as core/items return HTTP 401. The contract itself is the DSpace product's and belongs to DSpace, so no DSpace OpenAPI is saved under this institution — what IIT Delhi operates is the deployment and the data, which is what this entry records.
