Create-or-Update Ergonomics could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero: never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and several others — scorable at all.
Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/anixter-international: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

  detail: Anixter runs a real MuleSoft Anypoint API platform — api.wesco.com resolves to api-wesco.lb.anypointdns.net and
    the Anypoint Exchange organization domain "anixter" has its public portal switched on — but that portal publishes zero
    public assets, so every API asset sits behind an Anypoint login, and the eCommerce integrations page that describes the
    EDI and punchout surface answers 403 behind a Cloudflare managed challenge on top of it.
