Shanghai Jiao Tong University
Shanghai Jiao Tong University (SJTU), founded in 1896 and located in Shanghai, China (Mainland), is one of China's top research universities and is ranked #56 in the QS World University Rankings 2025. SJTU operates an official developer platform (developer.sjtu.edu.cn) that exposes internal data resources and infrastructure to authorized developers. Its public-facing programmable footprint centers on the jAccount single sign-on system (OAuth 2.0 / OpenID Connect) and a GraphQL-based data resources platform covering account, faculty, undergraduate teaching, and academic paper data. Access to the data APIs is gated behind an application and approval process; the SSO/OIDC integration is documented publicly.
More than an index entry, but the surface is still mostly links rather than artifacts — the cohort most likely to move a full band from modest, well-targeted work.
API Evangelist profiles Shanghai Jiao Tong University the way a machine reads it — 12 machine-readable artifacts across 6 APIs, pulled from the provider's own public surface and indexed so a developer, an analyst, or an AI agent can evaluate it against every other provider on the network.
Every provider in the network is reduced to the same set of machine-readable artifacts — OpenAPI contracts, event specifications, GraphQL schemas, runnable collections, pricing and rate-limit signals, security posture, OAuth scopes, and the agent surfaces (MCP servers and skills) that let software drive the API on its own. We profile them because the interface is the part of a company you can actually inspect: it is a truer signal of what a provider does than any marketing page. From those artifacts we compute the Kin Score — Shanghai Jiao Tong University scores 25.6/100 (emerging), with a separate agent-readiness read of 16/100 (agent aware). The full breakdown is below, followed by every artifact we hold — each card links through to its machine-readable definition on apis.io.
Kin Score
This is the API Evangelist rating — a single, repeatable read computed from the artifacts on this page. Green fill is points earned; the red track is points possible, so every bar shows earned-versus-possible at a glance.

How we profile Shanghai Jiao Tong University
Each block below is one kind of artifact we hold for Shanghai Jiao Tong University. For each we say what it is and why it earns a place in the profile, then list every one we've indexed — capped at two rows, scroll within the panel for the rest.
APIs 6
Each API is captured as its own OpenAPI definition — every operation, parameter, and response. This is the single most useful machine-readable description of what an API does, and it's what lets us score, lint, mock, and generate against it without asking the provider for anything.
Individual APIs this provider publishes, each with its own machine-readable definition.
jAccount Single Sign-On (OAuth 2.0 / OIDC)
jAccount is SJTU's identity and single sign-on system. It provides OAuth 2.0 and OpenID Connect authorization for third-party member sites, including an authorization endpoint, ...

Undergraduate Teaching APIs
GraphQL APIs exposing undergraduate teaching and course-related information. Course interfaces return current academic year data. Part of the gated data resources platform.
Faculty APIs
GraphQL APIs providing faculty and staff profile data. Part of the gated data resources platform requiring an approved application.
Academic Paper APIs
GraphQL APIs providing access to academic paper and publication metadata. Part of the gated data resources platform requiring an approved application.
Account APIs
GraphQL APIs used to retrieve account-related information. Access requires an approved data resource application.
GraphQL 1
Where a provider ships GraphQL, the schema is the contract. We profile it alongside the REST surface so the whole interface is legible in one place.

GRAPHQLPricing Plans 1
Pricing is part of the interface. Machine-readable plans tell you what a tier costs and includes before you commit — one of the six things the Kin Score reads for commercial clarity.
Published pricing tiers and plan structures.
Rate Limits 1
Rate limits are the difference between a demo that works and a production integration that doesn't fall over. Publishing them is an operational-transparency signal — and a hard requirement for any agent that plans its own throughput.
Documented rate limits and quota policies.

RATE LIMITSFinOps 1
Cost, billing, and metering signals let a buyer model the financial operations of an API before it's live. We profile them for the same reason we profile pricing: the money is part of the contract.
Cost, billing, and metering signals for API financial operations.
Semantic Vocabularies 1
JSON-LD contexts give the data shared meaning across APIs. We profile them because semantics are what let a machine reconcile 'customer' here with 'customer' somewhere else.
JSON-LD contexts and semantic vocabularies used across these APIs.
Security Posture 1
Authentication, domain security, vulnerability disclosure, and trust-center signals — the evidence that a provider takes security seriously enough to document it. We profile it because you can't govern what you can't see.
