The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill is a leading public research university in Chapel Hill, North Carolina, United States, ranked #155 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. Its public developer and API footprint is centered on research and open-data infrastructure rather than a single unified developer portal: UNC Dataverse exposes a live, documented native REST API for social-science and research data (running Dataverse 6.8), the campus ArcGIS Hub open-data site publishes geospatial data through DCAT-US feeds and ArcGIS REST services, and the UNC Libraries software-development team maintains a public GitHub organization with the box-c Digital Collections Repository and other open-source tooling. Most administrative and student-information-system APIs (such as the Facilities SPOTS REST API and campus single sign-on) are gated behind Onyen/Shibboleth authentication.
