Politecnico di Milano
Politecnico di Milano is Italy's largest technical university — engineering, architecture and design — and a public research institution in Milan, ROR 01nffqt88. Like almost every university it is a federation of buyers rather than an API producer: there is no developer portal, no public API key, no status page and no changelog anywhere on polimi.it. What it does operate itself is real and was verified live on 2026-09-01. An open data portal at www.opendata.polimi.it publishes a DCAT-AP_IT catalogue in RDF Turtle describing 25 datasets, each with a CSV and a JSON distribution at a stable unauthenticated URL — all 25 returned 200 and 38,255 rows on probe, covering the course catalogue, enrolments, graduates, mobility, internships, grade distributions and research output under CC BY 4.0. Two separate OAI-PMH 2.0 endpoints are served from its own hosts: Re.Public@Polimi for research products and POLITESI for theses, the latter also harvestable in the DataCite kernel-4 metadata schema. It runs its own Shibboleth identity provider, shibidp.polimi.it, whose SAML 2.0 metadata is public and whose entityID is registered in the Italian IDEM GARR federation. Against that, the surfaces it does NOT own are recorded as such: the authenticated IRIS REST API on its repository host is CINECA's product contract, not the university's, and api.polimi.it is a live Kong gateway with no publicly routable endpoint behind it. This profile saves contracts only for the surfaces the institution itself operates.
Politecnico di Milano publishes 7 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Catalog API, Distributions API, Federation API, and 4 more. Tagged areas include Education, Higher Education, University, Technical University, and Research.
The Politecnico di Milano catalog on APIs.io includes 2 JSON-LD contexts and 1 Spectral governance ruleset.
Politecnico di Milano’s developer surface includes engineering blog, support, authentication, code examples, and 23 more developer resources.
Kin Score
Markets this provider is in provisional
The Kin Score Market layer reads a provider inside its market: its position, and how deep its integrations go. Depth is only comparable within a position. Provisional and unweighted: not part of the Kin Score or agent readiness.
| Market | Position | Depth | Registered MCP server | Declares compatibility |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Open Data Portals (CKAN / DCAT) | standard | 17.2 (thin) | - | - |
Registered MCP server and declares compatibility are report only — not weighted. Undeclared means we found nothing we can read, so there is no number: we never infer integrations.
