Course Explorer (CISAPI) is one of 8 APIs that [University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign](https://apis.io/providers/university-of-illinois-urbana-champaign/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Course Catalog, Courses, Schedule, Registrar, and Open Data. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

The Course Information Suite API — RESTful resources over Class Schedule and Course Catalog data, organised as Schedule, Catalog, GenEd, Term and Subjects modules and served as XML in a campus-local namespace (http://rest.cis.illinois.edu). No authentication, no rate limit published, no versioning: content versions by academic term rather than by API version. Operated by the university on its own host. No OpenAPI is published for it and none is derived here.
