University of Western Australia

aid: uwa
name: University of Western Australia
description: 'The University of Western Australia (UWA) is a public research university in Perth, Western Australia, and ranked
  #80 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. Its public developer/API footprint is modest and primarily institutional:
  UWA operates an Azure API Management developer portal where APIs and products are published and consumed via API keys behind
  a sign-in, and exposes an Elsevier Pure CRIS Web Service for its Profiles and Research Repository that returns research
  outputs, people, projects, and related metadata via an API-key-protected REST interface. Most other interfaces are gated
  behind institutional affiliation or federated identity rather than open self-service.'

  name: UWA Developer Portal (Azure API Management)
  description: UWA's developer portal, built on Microsoft Azure API Management, where published APIs and products can be discovered,
    tried interactively, and subscribed to for API keys. The catalog of products and APIs is presented behind a JavaScript
    app and sign-in, so individual endpoints are not publicly enumerable without an account.

    in the Pure administrator interface; the versioned web service (5.24 / "524") publishes interactive API documentation.
