  note: Fetched verbatim from the UW-IT IAM tools API documentation host on 2026-08-30 (HTTP 200). servers[] resolve to University of Washington registrable domains (uw.edu / washington.edu), so the operator is the institution, not a vendor. Only externalDocs, x-operator and x-provenance were added; info and paths are as published.
