SADVR REST API (Vitrine-Recherche)

REST API from the Service d'accès aux données de la Vitrine-Recherche, redistributing UdeM research data. Provides five JSON services: resource value exposure (faculties, departments, functions, programs, study domains, research expertise, languages, unit types), persistent identifier search for individuals and research units, extended identifier search, full data retrieval by persistent identifier, and a SOLR-backed search engine service. The documented base path is a testing/legacy endpoint and may not currently resolve.
