ScreenCloud is a cloud digital signage platform that turns any screen into a managed display for content, dashboards, and apps. Its developer surface is the ScreenCloud Studio API - a single public GraphQL endpoint (bearer-token authenticated, region-specific, copied from the DEVELOPER tab in Studio) that lets you automate anything you can do in Studio by hand - pairing and managing screens, building playlists and channels, uploading media and files, casting content, installing and configuring signage apps, and exporting playback logs and QR metrics. ScreenCloud also runs a Developer Platform / App framework for building custom HTML/JavaScript signage apps that can be published (with approval) to the App Store. There is no documented public WebSocket API - the Studio API is request/response GraphQL over HTTPS.
ScreenCloud is listed with 6 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Digital Signage, Screens, Content Management, GraphQL, and Media.
ScreenCloud’s developer surface includes documentation, signup flow, engineering blog, and 8 more developer resources.
Regulatory Posture applies to this provider. Its tags matched the
Horizontal (data, software, accessibility, platform) 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 could not be measured. We hold no machine-readable contract for
this provider to read, so there is nothing to measure a write surface against. Excluded rather than scored zero:
never-measured and measured-empty are different facts. Publishing an OpenAPI is what makes this facet — and
several others — scorable at all.
The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them,
because the conditional facet above carries the other
15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped
maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% of its nominal
weight, not 100%. The full arithmetic is at apis.io/rating/.

Agent readiness — checks not met, largest first (exact, from this profile):
MCP Server+12 pts — deployment.mode + probe verdict on the mcp/ manifest, not the pointer; an unprobed slug falls back to authorship
Machine-Readable Auth+10 pts — a served openid-configuration/oauth-authorization-server carrying `issuer` (served), else the securitySchemes class in the provider OpenAPIs — bound (mutualTLS, DPoP, Signature) > negotiable (oauth2 authorizationCode/clientCredentials, openIdConnect) > bearer (http bearer, apiKey)
Idempotency+9 pts — OpenAPI mutating operations declare an idempotency key — a header, a request-body property, or a named de-duplication token whose own description says so (verified); else common[].type matches /idempoten/i (documented)
Stable Error Semantics+8 pts — OpenAPI $refs a shared error schema across 4xx/5xx responses (verified), else common[].type includes ErrorCatalog / ErrorCodes / DeclineCodes
A2A Agent Card+8 pts — a2a/-a2a.yml manifest, graded on conformance.grade against A2A 1.0.0

Standards this provider implements or carries. De facto ones are profiled and measured by the API Commons; formal ones come from the standards directory and are linked by the provider's own tags. The evidence column says how each claim was established — not that it was made.
