UNIverse Research Information System API is one of 7 APIs that [University of Basel](https://apis.io/providers/university-of-basel/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Research Information, CRIS, Publications, OpenAPI, and Internal. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an API reference and API documentation.

The REST backend of UNIverse (universe.unibas.ch), the University of Basel's research information system, at https://universe-intern.unibas.ch/api. It is the only OpenAPI contract the university itself serves: OpenAPI 3.1.0, title "Super MedMe API", version 1.16.2.191, 1,671 paths and 1,170 schemas, one securityScheme ("Bearer Token"), covering publications, books, persons, departments, reviewers, stakeholder review workflow and room/meeting administration. The contract names no vendor — no info.contact, no license, and its only server is the unibas.ch host itself, which resolves into the university's own network (lzm-medme-fe-prod1.meddek.unibas.ch, 131.152.217.196). A springdoc Swagger UI is served alongside it. Verified live 2026-08-30: the contract and Swagger UI answer 200 anonymously, and a data path answers 401 with {"timestamp":…,"status":401,"error":"Unauthorized","path":…}, which establishes the token is enforced rather than merely declared.
