description: 'The University of Campinas (Universidade Estadual de Campinas, Unicamp) is a public research university in Campinas,
  Sao Paulo, Brazil, and one of Latin America''s largest producers of research output. It publishes no central developer portal
  and no public API documentation, but it does operate more machine-readable surface than that absence suggests, and all of
  it sits on its own registrable domain: REDU, a self-hosted Dataverse 6.2 research data repository with a live Native/Search
  API and an OAI-PMH endpoint over 2,149 datasets; the EDAT data platform, whose Kong gateway at api.dados.unicamp.br serves
  at least one publicly callable JSON endpoint and gates the rest behind Unicamp''s own Keycloak realm with full OIDC discovery;
  per-journal OAI-PMH across the SBU journal portal; and a Shibboleth identity provider registered in CAFe, Brazil''s academic
  identity federation. Two further gateways are live but closed - the registrar API at api.dac.unicamp.br (403 on every path)
  and an institutional Sensedia gateway at api.unicamp.br (routing but no public route). Unicamp is also a DataCite provider
  in its own right and a Crossref member. Nothing here is documented for third-party developers; the contracts in this repo
  were reconstructed by probe, not published by the university.'

  detail: 'Unicamp operates no public developer portal and publishes no API documentation or OpenAPI, but it is not empty:
    four institution-operated machine-readable surfaces were probed live on 2026-09-01 - the REDU Dataverse API and its OAI-PMH
    endpoint, the EDAT Kong gateway with one publicly callable JSON route, the EDAT Keycloak OIDC discovery document, and
    per-journal OAI-PMH on the SBU journal portal - plus a Shibboleth IdP registered in the CAFe federation and DataCite /
    Crossref / ROR registry memberships. Two further institution-operated gateways are live but closed to the public (api.dac.unicamp.br
    returns 403 everywhere, api.unicamp.br routes nothing publicly). No vendor contract is attributed to Unicamp: the Dataverse
    and OJS interface designs belong to their projects and are deliberately not saved here, and the only OpenAPI in the repo
    is one API Evangelist reconstructed by probe and marked as such. Portuguese-language surfaces were searched directly.'
