# Khazna OAI-PMH Repository

**Canonical:** https://apis.io/apis/khalifa/khazna-oai-pmh/  
**Provider:** Khalifa University — https://apis.io/providers/khalifa/  
**Base URL:** https://khazna.ku.ac.ae/ws/oai  
**Documentation:** https://khazna.ku.ac.ae

Khazna OAI-PMH Repository is one of 10 APIs that [Khalifa University](https://apis.io/providers/khalifa/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification. Tagged areas include Research Data, Research Repository, OAI-PMH, Metadata Harvesting, and Open Access. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, sample payloads, authentication docs, and API documentation.

OAI-PMH 2.0 metadata harvesting endpoint for Khazna, Khalifa University's research portal, at https://khazna.ku.ac.ae/ws/oai. Open and anonymous. Identify (probed 2026-09-01, HTTP 200) reports repositoryName "Pure OAI Repository", baseURL https://khazna.ku.ac.ae/ws/oai, adminEmail khazna@ku.ac.ae, earliestDatestamp 2023-01-11T09:41:56Z, granularity YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ, and declares the OpenAIRE CERIF 1.2 profile. ListMetadataFormats returns 7 formats including oai_dc, MODS 3.8 and xmetadiss; ListSets returns a full set hierarchy. The base URL is on the institution's own registrable domain and the admin contact is an institution address, so the harvesting surface is the institution's — even though the repository software underneath it is an Elsevier Pure tenant. Elsevier's own "Pure API" contract is served from the same host at /ws/api/openapi.yaml and is deliberately NOT catalogued here: it is Elsevier's contract, not Khalifa's.
