Politecnico di Torino (PoliTO) is Italy's oldest technical university, founded in Turin in 1859, with roughly 38,000 students across engineering, architecture and design. Unusually for this cohort, its programmable footprint is genuinely its own rather than a vendor's: the university publishes the OpenAPI definition of the REST API behind its official student and faculty mobile applications in the verified @polito GitHub organisation (polito/api-spec, authored in TypeSpec and emitted as two client contracts, Polito Faculty API and Polito Students API), and the React Native apps that consume it are open-sourced under EUPL-1.2 in polito/rn-apps and polito/students-app. That API runs on the university's own host, app.didattica.polito.it, and covers announcements, authentication with MFA, room and slot bookings, courses, lectures, news, people, places, exams, grades, degree offering, job offers, surveys, support tickets and the European Student Card. It is not a self-service developer programme: the production base path returns 403 to an anonymous caller, every operation is bearer authenticated against a PoliTO account, and no key can be requested by an outsider. Two further institution-operated machine-readable surfaces exist and are recorded here for the first time — a Shibboleth SAML 2.0 identity provider registered in IDEM GARR and eduGAIN since 2020, and an OAI-PMH 2.0 harvesting service over the IRIS research repository, the latter a CINECA tenant deployment rather than PoliTO engineering. A fourth institution-operated surface was found on 2026-08-30 and is the only one an outsider can actually call: four keyless JSON web services behind the polito.it site search — staff, departments and teachings at mypoli.polito.it/dotnet/ws_anagrafe and a campus room locator at legacyprod.polito.it — all returning HTTP 200 and real data with no credential, on hosts inside the university's own GARR address space. They are undocumented and unversioned, PoliTO does not present them as a developer product, and the OpenAPI held here is derived from probing rather than published. The university also runs HPC@PoliTO, an academic computing service managed in-house, whose allocation process is entirely by email with no programmatic surface. The institutional open-data portal publishes downloadable datasets only, with no API behind it, and there is no data.polito.it or api.polito.it host in service.
Politecnico di Torino publishes 16 APIs on the APIs.io network, including Announcements API, Auth API, Bookings API, and 13 more. Tagged areas include Education, Higher Education, University, Technical University, and Italy.
The Politecnico di Torino catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 2 Spectral governance rulesets.
Politecnico di Torino’s developer surface includes authentication, GitHub presence, documentation, status page, and 25 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.
Open Source Surface applies to this provider. This product is open source and we
read its repository directly, so Open Source Surface carries
10 points of the composite. It is scored from what the repository actually
publishes — a security policy, a contribution guide, a release history, a code of conduct — read live from the
provider rather than inferred from our own catalog pointers.
This facet adds; nothing was taken away to make room for it. An open-source project is not excused from
the commercial facets, because exemption would strip it of the points it does earn.
If we have the wrong repository, or this product is not open source, say so on your
provider repo and we
will drop the facet rather than have you publish against 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 65 points between them,
because both conditional facets apply and carry
35 points together. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped
maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 65% of its nominal
weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

x-operator: institution
description: Four keyless JSON web services operated by Politecnico di Torino on its own hosts, found on 2026-08-30 in the
client JavaScript behind https://www.polito.it/en/search and probed live. search_people.ashx, search_departments.ashx
and search_teachings.ashx run at mypoli.polito.it/dotnet/ws_anagrafe (130.192.182.138); the campus room locator motore-di-ricerca/localijson.php
runs at legacyprod.polito.it (130.192.182.100). Both hosts sit inside the university's own 130.192.0.0/16 GARR address
space with no vendor CNAME, so this is institution-operated engineering rather than a tenant deployment. All four returned
HTTP 200 with application/json and real institutional data to an anonymous caller carrying no credential, which makes
this the ONLY Politecnico di Torino API surface an outsider can actually call — the documented app.didattica.polito.it
REST API behind the official mobile apps returns 403 without a PoliTO bearer token. The teachings service is the closest
thing the university operates to a public course-catalog API. Politecnico di Torino publishes no specification, documentation
or terms of use for any of them and does not present them as a developer product; the OpenAPI recorded here is DERIVED
from live probing by API Evangelist and is stamped as such. Paging is advertised and not honoured — current_page and page_size
echo back 1 and 5 whatever is sent — and omitting the required q parameter returns HTTP 500 rather than 400. The people
service returns personal data about named staff including institutional email addresses; no real personal record is reproduced
in the derived contract.

detail: 'Every surface class the university pipeline hunts was probed on 2026-08-30, and Politecnico di Torino is one of
the few institutions in this cohort whose headline API is genuinely its own. The REST API behind the official student
and faculty apps runs on app.didattica.polito.it, its OpenAPI is authored by the university in TypeSpec and published
in the verified @polito GitHub organisation, and no vendor appears anywhere in servers[], info.title, info.contact or
info.termsOfService. Nothing was removed for misattribution. What was repaired is ours: all 15 refined OpenAPIs wore the
welded title ''Polito Faculty Announcements <Tag> API'' because refine-openapis carried the first split output''s identity
onto every later one, and seven of them (Esc, Exams, Job offers, Offering, Student, Surveys, Tic
