Deep Blue Data REST API is one of 7 APIs that [University of Michigan-Ann Arbor](https://apis.io/providers/university-of-michigan-ann-arbor/) publishes on the [APIs.io](https://apis.io/) network. Tagged areas include Research Data, Repository, REST, Open Data, and Library. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes API documentation.

Public REST API for Deep Blue Data, the University of Michigan Library's open repository for research datasets produced by U-M researchers, with DataCite DOI persistent identifiers. Documented publicly at deepblue.lib.umich.edu/data/rest-api. Could not be described here: every request to deepblue.lib.umich.edu from an automated client — including the documentation page and /data/api/v1/works — returns a Cloudflare managed challenge (HTTP 403, body "Just a moment..."). That is a limit on our probing, not a finding about the API. No paths, parameters or schemas have been guessed; no OpenAPI is emitted for this surface until it can actually be read.
