The Autonomous University of Madrid (Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, UAM) is a public research university in Madrid, Spain, founded in 1968 and ranked #198 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. Its primary public, machine-readable API footprint is delivered through Biblos-e Archivo, the UAM institutional repository running DSpace 7.6.5, which exposes a HAL-based REST API and an OAI-PMH 2.0 metadata-harvesting endpoint. UAM does not publish a centralized developer portal; authentication is handled through the gated ID-UAM federated identity service, and most institutional systems (secretaria virtual, mobile app backend) are not openly documented.
