The Autonomous University of Barcelona (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona, UAB) is a public research university in Bellaterra, near Barcelona, Spain, founded in 1968 and ranked #175 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. UAB's public, machine-accessible footprint centers on its open scholarly infrastructure rather than a formal developer portal: the Dipòsit Digital de Documents (DDD), the institutional repository built on the Invenio platform, exposes an OAI-PMH 2.0 metadata endpoint and is OpenAIRE-compliant. Research data is published through the Catalan consortium (CSUC) federated research data repository. No dedicated, publicly documented UAB developer/API program or official institutional GitHub organization was confirmed; student-facing academic services (SIA) are gated login portals without public API documentation.
