Research Repository UCD — OAI-PMH 2.0

Keyless, anonymous OAI-PMH 2.0 metadata harvesting for UCD's open-access institutional repository. Verified live 2026-08-30: all six verbs return HTTP 200 with a well-formed envelope, ListIdentifiers reports completeListSize 17167, earliestDatestamp is 2007-08-22, granularity is YYYY-MM-DDThh:mm:ssZ, and fourteen metadata formats are advertised (oai_dc, qdc, dim, didl, mets, mods, ore, rdf, marc, marc21, etdms, uketd_dc, rian_dc, rms_oai — rian_dc for the Irish national aggregator RIAN, uketd_dc and etdms for theses). A second base URL, /server/oai/openairecris, serves the OpenAIRE Guidelines for CRIS Managers 1.1 CERIF profile. Protocol errors behave correctly: badVerb, cannotDisseminateFormat and idDoesNotExist are returned inside HTTP 200 envelopes. Records carry Handle identifiers under UCD's prefix 10197 and, in the dim format, qualified ORCID fields. NOTE the base URL: the /oai/request path recorded in this file in June 2026 returns 405; the working path is /server/oai/request. The OpenAPI below is DERIVED by API Evangelist from live probes — UCD publishes none.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Research Repository UCD — OAI-PMH 2.0, 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.
