Warwick Moodle Web Services

Warwick runs a Moodle virtual learning environment at moodle.warwick.ac.uk. The Moodle web service endpoint is live and responds to unauthenticated requests with a well-formed Moodle exception, confirming the surface exists. Recorded for completeness with an important caveat: the host and the instance are Warwick's, but the API contract is upstream Moodle's, so no specification is derived or saved here — crediting Warwick for Moodle's engineering would be the same error this pipeline exists to prevent. Note also that the Moodle homepage returned HTTP 500 when probed on 2026-08-19.

x-operator: institution
x-operator-evidence: moodle.warwick.ac.uk is under Warwick's own registrable domain and is a self-hosted
  instance; however the contract itself is defined by the Moodle project, not by Warwick.
baseURL: https://moodle.warwick.ac.uk/webservice/rest/server.php
x-humanurl-note: No humanURL is emitted. https://moodle.warwick.ac.uk/ returns HTTP 500 to anonymous visitors
  on every attempt — a Shibboleth "Single Sign-on - Stale Request" page served with a 500 — and Warwick
  publishes no public Moodle information page (/services/its/servicessupport/web/moodle/ and /services/academictechnology/moodle/
  both 404). Only the web service endpoint is live, so only it is emitted.
