The University of Manchester is a public research university in Manchester, England, a founding member of the Russell Group and, on the QS World University Rankings, a consistent global top-40 institution. Its programmable footprint is small, real, and almost entirely mis-stated by its own domain names. The University operates exactly three machine-readable surfaces of its own: a IIIF Presentation API and a IIIF Image API serving the John Rylands Library's digitised manuscripts from the University's own hosts and its own JANET address space, and a Shibboleth SAML 2.0 Identity Provider registered in the Jisc UK Access Management Federation under entityID https://shib.manchester.ac.uk/shibboleth. Everything else that looks like a Manchester API is a tenancy: pure.manchester.ac.uk and research.manchester.ac.uk both CNAME to uom-aws.elsevierpure.com and serve Elsevier's Pure product API and OAI-PMH implementation; figshare.manchester.ac.uk CNAMEs to figshare.com. Those are Manchester's records on a supplier's platform, under a supplier's contract, and they are recorded here as tenant relationships rather than credited as the University's engineering. There is no central developer portal, no self-service API keys, no open data portal at data.manchester.ac.uk, and no public course, timetable or SIS API. Thirty-six OpenAPI documents previously held in this repository were Elsevier's Pure 5.35.2-2 specification split by tag and re-titled; they have been quarantined, not counted.
University of Manchester publishes 41 API contracts indexed on the APIs.io network, including Image API, Presentation API, Activity API, and 38 more. Tagged areas include University, Higher Education, Education, Research, and United Kingdom.
The University of Manchester catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context and 1 Spectral governance ruleset.
University of Manchester’s developer surface includes engineering blog, support, GitHub presence, authentication, and 27 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.
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/.
Standards this provider implements or carries. De facto ones are profiled and measured by the API Commons; formal ones come from the standards directory and are linked by the provider's own tags. The evidence column says how each claim was established — not that it was made.
