Knowledge@UChicago Repository REST API

Knowledge@UChicago is the University's institutional repository, running self-hosted InvenioRDM 13.1 on the institution's own domain. Its REST API returns records, communities and files as JSON, with DataCite DOIs minted under the 10.6082 prefix and creator identifiers typed by scheme (orcid, ror, isni). The institution runs the software rather than renting a vendor tenancy, so this is an institution-operated surface, not a tenant relationship. Verified live 2026-08-19, HTTP 200, application/json; a nonsense identifier returns a real HTTP 404, not a soft-404.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Knowledge@UChicago Repository REST API, 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.
