Research Data Archive REST/XML

EPrints REST/XML interface for the University of Bath Research Data Archive, on the same institution-operated host. Confirmed live 2026-08-30: /rest/ returns an "EPrints REST: Datasets" index exposing the eprint, user and subject datasets. The interface is EPrints open-source software, deployed and run by the University rather than consumed as a hosted service, so both the host and the operation are Bath's. No OpenAPI is published for it and none is generated here.
