GUPEA DSpace 8 REST API is one of 14 APIs that [University of Gothenburg](https://apis.io/providers/university-of-gothenburg/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Library, Research Repository, DSpace, HAL, and Open Access.

The HAL+JSON REST API of the same repository, on the same University host. Verified live 2026-09-01: anonymous GET https://gupea.ub.gu.se/server/api returned HTTP 200 application/hal+json, 8,531 bytes, with "dspaceName": "GUPEA" and "dspaceVersion": "DSpace 8.3-SNAPSHOT". DEPLOYMENT RECORDED, CONTRACT NOT STORED: DSpace is open-source software whose REST contract belongs to the DSpace project and is shared by every DSpace installation in this cohort. The University operates the deployment, the host and the content; it did not write the interface, so no generic DSpace specification is saved under this slug.
