Tel Aviv University

Tel Aviv University (TAU) is Israel's largest public research university, located in Tel Aviv, and is ranked #209 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. TAU does not publish a centralized, public developer portal or open-data API program. Its confirmed machine-accessible surface is limited to standard third-party platform endpoints: an ExLibris Primo discovery interface (institution code 972TAU_INST:TAU) backed by an Alma library services platform that exposes the usual Primo Search REST API and Alma OAI-PMH harvesting endpoints. Student-built, unofficial tooling also scrapes/wraps TAU's Moodle and information-management (IMS) systems. No officially documented, self-service public API was found.

Tel Aviv University publishes 3 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Education, Higher Education, University, Israel, and Library.

The Tel Aviv University catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context.

Tel Aviv University’s developer surface includes GitHub presence and 8 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.

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/.

Improve this rating by publishing the missing artifacts — every area above can be raised, and the full rubric is at apis.io/rating/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/tel-aviv-university: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you?
