University of California, Davis

The University of California, Davis is a public land-grant research university in Davis, California and a member of the ten-campus University of California system. Its programmable footprint is real but decentralized: there is no campus-wide developer portal, no API gateway, no published deprecation policy and no self-service signup for anything. What UC Davis genuinely operates and authored itself is three things — the Aggie Experts API (UC Davis Library, OpenAPI 3.0.0 v5.0, twelve operations over experts, works and grants, callable anonymously and returning JSON-LD with ORCID iDs and UC Davis ARK identifiers), the DAMS API behind digital.ucdavis.edu (built on the Library's own open-source 'fin' framework, though several documented operations return soft-200 errors), and the PEAKS asset- and access-tracking API run by the College of Agricultural and Environmental Sciences (MIT-licensed, source at github.com/ucdavis/Peaks, API-key gated). Alongside those it runs a SAML 2.0 Shibboleth identity provider published to InCommon as urn:mace:incommon:ucdavis.edu, and UC Davis Health operates a live FHIR R4 endpoint on its own domain — although that endpoint's CapabilityStatement is Epic's work, not UC Davis's, and is deliberately not claimed here. Two further surfaces are TENANT relationships and are labelled as such rather than credited as UC Davis engineering: scholarly output in eScholarship (operated by the California Digital Library for all of UC) and library discovery on Ex Libris Primo. Several campus surfaces that plainly exist — the open data portal aggiedata.ucdavis.edu, the registrar's course search, research computing at hpc.ucdavis.edu — sit behind a Cloudflare bot challenge and could not be read; that is a limit on this profile, not evidence of absence.

University of California, Davis publishes 13 APIs on the APIs.io network, including PEAKS (CAES) — Access API, PEAKS (CAES) — Documents API, PEAKS (CAES) — Equipment API, and 10 more. Tagged areas include University, Higher Education, Education, United States, and California.

Kin Score Kin Score How this is scored →
scored 2026-09-08 · rubric v0.20.0
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.
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 75 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 25. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 75% 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/. Every facet and dimension name above is a link: it opens that measurement's own page — what it means, the exact checks that feed it, how the whole catalog distributes on it, and the providers at the top of it. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/uc-davis: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts.

  detail: 'Three genuinely institution-authored contracts were found, fetched and verified callable, so this is not a thin
    profile. It is a GATED one. Everything UC Davis operates is either open with no registration path at all (Aggie Experts,
    DAMS — no securitySchemes, no plans, no rate-limit headers) or closed behind institutional affiliation with no public
    onboarding (PEAKS API keys, IET middleware, UC Davis Health integration). Separately, a cluster of campus surfaces that
    certainly exist sits behind a Cloudflare bot challenge and returned 403 to every user agent tried, including a current
    desktop browser string: the AggieData open data portal, the registrar''s course search, research computing, and the campus
    IT AI pages. Those 403s are a limit on this measurement, not a finding about UC Davis — they are live hosts we could not
    read. eScholarship and ucdavis.figshare.com answer automated clients with an AWS WAF challenge (HTTP 202, zero bytes);
    the eScholarship tenant relationship was confirmed instead through its OAI-PMH verbs, and no Figshare tenant was claimed
    because none could be verified. No campus-wide developer portal, changelog, deprecation policy, pricing or rate-limit
    documentation exists to find.'
