Utrecht University (Universiteit Utrecht) is a public research university in Utrecht, Netherlands, ranked #105 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. Its public developer and API footprint is centered on open research infrastructure rather than a formal developer portal: the Utrecht University Library runs a DSpace institutional repository exposing publication metadata via OAI-PMH, the university maintains a large public GitHub organization (UtrechtUniversity) that publishes open-source research software, and it develops Yoda, an iRODS-based research data management platform. There is no single consolidated, self-service API developer portal; most administrative and identity systems are gated behind institutional SolisID/SSO.
