Purdue RCAC API

The Rosen Center for Advanced Computing publishes its own OpenAPI 3.0.0 description at www.rcac.purdue.edu/api - 206 paths and 452 operations covering research computing groups and their members, departments and fields of science, course allocations and enrollments, staff contact reports, and the RCAC service finder with its facets and facet tree. This is Purdue's own software on Purdue's own host (www.rcac.purdue.edu -> web.rcac.purdue.edu, 128.211.157.46), and it is the single largest institution-authored machine-readable artifact found anywhere in this profile. The contract is public; the endpoints are not - an unauthenticated call returns 500 with a Purdue Web Authentication login page, and the declared api_token apiKey header has no documented self-service issuance. Declared version is 0.0.1 with no stability, deprecation or changelog statement.

Purdue RCAC API is one of 7 APIs that Purdue University publishes on the APIs.io network, described by a machine-readable OpenAPI specification.

Tagged areas include Research Computing, HPC, Allocations, and Institution-Operated. The published artifact set on APIs.io includes an OpenAPI specification, an API reference, API documentation, a support channel, and authentication docs.

Where this information came from

This is an independent, third-party profile of Purdue RCAC 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.
