Figshare

Figshare is a research data repository platform that enables researchers, institutions, and organizations to upload, manage, and publicly share scientific outputs including datasets, figures, media, papers, posters, and software. The platform provides persistent DOI assignment for all published research outputs, enabling proper citation and long-term discoverability. Figshare's REST API v2 allows programmatic access to articles, collections, projects, file uploads, statistics, and administrative functions. The platform is built on AWS infrastructure and supports both individual researchers with a free 20GB tier and institutional deployments with custom storage configurations up to multiple terabytes.

Figshare publishes 10 APIs on the APIs.io network, including altmetric API, articles API, authors API, and 7 more. Tagged areas include Research Data, Data Repository, Open Science, DOI, and Datasets.

The Figshare catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 1 Spectral governance ruleset.

Figshare’s developer surface includes authentication, documentation, engineering blog, pricing, support, and 17 more developer resources.

Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the Education & Research regime, so Regulatory Posture carries 15 points of the composite. If this regime is wrong for your business, say so on your provider repo — the applicability map is public and we will correct it.

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.

The six quality facets above are damped to 75 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 25. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 75% of its nominal weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

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