The Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) operates an internal developer portal that exposes APIs for the institution's information systems. The MIT developer environment publishes APIs such as the Roles API for managing institutional roles and authorizations. Access to the developer portal and most APIs requires MIT authentication via Shibboleth / Touchstone single sign-on, making the catalog primarily available to community members, partners, and authorized integrators rather than to the general public.
