Aalto Research Publications API (Acris gateway)

Aalto's own four-path gateway contract over Acris, its research information system, exposing research outputs, a single output by id, an enhanced output view and output fingerprints. OpenAPI 3.0.0 served from research.api.aalto.fi with a USER-KEY header. This is Aalto's wrapper, not Elsevier's contract: the underlying Acris/Pure web service at acris.aalto.fi/ws/api is a separate tenant surface recorded below, and its generic Pure specification is deliberately NOT saved under Aalto's name. info.version reads "Pure v5.15/" because it names the upstream release being wrapped.

Aalto Research Publications API (Acris gateway) is one of 13 APIs that Aalto University publishes on the APIs.io network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification.

Tagged areas include Research, Publications, Research Data, CRIS, and Open Access. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification and API documentation.

This API exposes 4 operations across 4 paths, organized into 2 resource areas. It is described by OpenAPI 3.0.0, at version Pure v5.15/.

Requests are made against a single base URL, https://research.api.aalto.fi/api/acris/v1.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Aalto Research Publications API (Acris gateway), published by API Evangelist. We do not operate, host, resell, or support these APIs, and we are not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated above. Everything here is built from publicly available information — the company's own site, developer portal, documentation, public repositories, and the specifications it publishes for public use. Nothing is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials.

The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated assessments of a company's public API artifacts, scored against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits.

Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free — no partnership or purchase required, and you do not need to justify the request. A removed company is recorded as unrated, never scored zero for having asked. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal within two.
