University of Lisbon

The University of Lisbon (Universidade de Lisboa, ULisboa) is Portugal's largest public university, based in Lisbon, and is ranked #260 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. Its public developer/API footprint is decentralized across its schools and services rather than offered through a single institutional developer portal. The most prominent programmable interfaces are the FenixEdu academic API operated by Instituto Superior Tecnico (tecnico.ulisboa.pt) and the OAI-PMH metadata interface of the DSpace institutional repository (repositorio.ulisboa.pt). The ULisboa GitHub organization publishes open-source Java libraries focused on Erasmus Without Paper (EWP) data exchange. There is no single self-service commercial API program; most interfaces are open metadata endpoints or affiliation-gated systems.

University of Lisbon publishes 2 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Education, Higher Education, University, Portugal, and Open Data.

The University of Lisbon catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context.

University of Lisbon’s developer surface includes GitHub presence and 8 more developer resources.
