Dapr

Dapr (Distributed Application Runtime) is a portable, event-driven runtime that makes it easy for developers to build resilient, stateless, and stateful applications that run on the cloud and edge. It provides building block APIs for state management, pub/sub messaging, service invocation, bindings, actors, workflows, secrets, configuration, distributed locks, cryptography, jobs scheduling, health checks, and metadata.

Dapr publishes 13 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Actors API, Bindings API, Configuration API, and 10 more. Tagged areas include Distributed Systems, Microservices, Platform, Pub-Sub, and State Management.

The Dapr catalog on APIs.io includes 1 event-driven AsyncAPI specification, 1 JSON-LD context, and 3 Spectral governance rulesets.

Dapr’s developer surface includes documentation, getting-started guide, engineering blog, changelog, Stack Overflow tag, and 13 more developer resources.

Create-or-Update Ergonomics applies to this provider. This API accepts writes, so it carries 10 points of the composite. It is scored from the published contracts themselves: whether a caller can create-or-update in one call, whether the write accepts a key the caller already holds, and whether the response says which branch ran. Without that, every write needs a search-and-branch in front of it, and the first time that check is skipped a duplicate record is created. Scored against the observed mean rather than raw — a provider at the catalog average is unchanged by this facet, not penalised by it.

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/dapr: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

get_provider_toolsEvery MCP tool they ship, with the operation each wraps.
get_provider_evidenceHow each part of their score was established. Free — the basis for a claim should not sit behind it.
get_provider_ratingPRO — composite, band, trend and facet scores.
apis_io_searchSTART HERE — APIs, providers and tags for one query, each with its total.
resolveTurn a domain, URL or GitHub org into the provider it belongs to.
