University of Texas at Austin

The University of Texas at Austin is a flagship public research university in Austin, Texas, United States, ranked #65 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. Its public, machine-readable API footprint is concentrated in its library and research-data infrastructure rather than a single centralized developer portal. The UT Libraries operate Texas ScholarWorks, a DSpace 8 institutional repository exposing a public DSpace REST API and an OAI-PMH metadata-harvesting endpoint, and the university participates in the Texas Data Repository, a Dataverse instance hosted by the Texas Digital Library that offers a documented REST API. Enterprise integration APIs (the UT Austin API Registry / Identity and Access Management services) exist but are gated behind UT EID authentication and internal ServiceNow access.

University of Texas at Austin publishes 3 APIs on the APIs.io network. Tagged areas include Education, Higher Education, University, Research, and Library.

The University of Texas at Austin catalog on APIs.io includes 1 JSON-LD context.
