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.

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.

The six quality facets above are damped to 85 points between them, because the conditional facet above carries the other 15. That is why each facet's contribution is shown against a damped maximum: raising a quality facet moves the composite by 85% 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/. This rating is computed from github.com/api-evangelist/university-of-lisbon: open an issue to ask a question, or submit a pull request to add artifacts. Want it done for you?
