OpenAPI Specification

openapi: 3.2.0
info:
  title: Knowledge@UChicago Repository Communities API
  version: '13.1'
  description: 'Read API for Knowledge@UChicago, the University of Chicago''s institutional repository, running self-hosted InvenioRDM 13.1 on the institution''s own domain. PROVENANCE: the University does not publish an OpenAPI description for this surface. This document was DERIVED by API Evangelist from live probe responses on 2026-08-19 — it describes observed behaviour, not a contract the institution authored, and must not be read as one. Write, draft and file-upload operations exist in InvenioRDM but require authentication and were not probed; they are deliberately absent here rather than guessed.'

    method: derived
    source: Live unauthenticated HTTP probes of https://knowledge.uchicago.edu/api/ on 2026-08-19; response shapes read from the returned JSON. Platform version read from the <meta name="generator" content="InvenioRDM 13.1"/> tag served by the application.
    x-operator: institution
    x-operator-basis: Host knowledge.uchicago.edu is under the institution's own registrable domain uchicago.edu, and InvenioRDM is open-source software the institution self-hosts rather than a vendor tenancy.
