  Live probes of La Trobe University hosts and of the third-party registries that hold
  La Trobe's own entries (AAF/eduGAIN SAML metadata, DataCite, Crossref, ROR, the
  Figshare OAI-PMH provider serving the La Trobe portal set). No conformance below is
  read from a prose claim on a La Trobe web page.
note: >-
  Education-regime domain standards (Kin Score 0.12.0). La Trobe University publishes no
  OpenAPI, AsyncAPI or GraphQL schema of its own, so nothing here is derived from an
  institution-authored API contract; every hit is a machine-readable registry entry or a
  live protocol endpoint carrying La Trobe's own identifiers. Where the endpoint is run
  by a platform on La Trobe's behalf, the operator is stated on the entry.

    SAML 2.0 EntityDescriptor served at https://aaf.latrobe.edu.au/idp/shibboleth (HTTP 200,
    application/xml, 4,447 bytes, 2026-08-30). entityID="https://aaf.latrobe.edu.au/idp/shibboleth";
    IDPSSODescriptor with protocolSupportEnumeration="urn:oasis:names:tc:SAML:2.0:protocol";
    SingleSignOnService bindings HTTP-POST and HTTP-Redirect at
    /idp/profile/SAML2/POST/SSO and /idp/profile/SAML2/Redirect/SSO;
    OrganizationName "latrobe.edu.au", OrganizationURL "https://latrobe.edu.au".
- id: shibboleth
  conforms: true
  operator: tenant
  evidence: >-
    The same EntityDescriptor carries the Shibboleth metadata extension
    <shibmd:Scope regexp="false">latrobe.edu.au</shibmd:Scope> and SAML1 artifact-resolution and
    attribute-query endpoints on :8443, the Shibboleth IdP signature. The host
    aaf.latrobe.edu.au is a CNAME to 50fc96936b5e207719a6a235131a8150.idp-cname.aaf.edu.au,
    so the software is run by the Australian Access Federation under La Trobe's domain and
    entityID — the identity namespace (scope latrobe.edu.au) is La Trobe's, the deployment is AAF's.

    OAI-PMH 2.0 provider answers for the La Trobe set. GET
    https://api.figshare.com/v2/oai?verb=ListIdentifiers&metadataPrefix=oai_dc&set=portal_234
    returns HTTP 200 text/xml with <setSpec>portal_234</setSpec> headers dated 2026-08-28
    (checked 2026-08-30). portal_234 is the OPAL (Open @ La Trobe) portal set. The verb=Identify
    response is HTTP 200. The provider is Figshare's; only the set is La Trobe's — no OAI-PMH
    responder was found on a latrobe.edu.au host (opal.latrobe.edu.au/oai returns HTTP 202,
    0 bytes).
- id: datacite
  conforms: true
  operator: institution
  evidence: >-
    La Trobe University is a DataCite member in its own right. GET
    https://api.datacite.org/providers/latrobe returns HTTP 200 with
    memberType "consortium_organization", organizationType "academicInstitution",
    website https://www.latrobe.edu.au/, created 2020-05-14. One repository
    (latrobe.repo) and one DOI prefix, 10.26181, are registered to it; a prefix query
    (https://api.datacite.org/dois?prefix=10.26181) reports 47,824 DOIs, resolving to
    opal.latrobe.edu.au landing pages.
- id: crossref
  conforms: true
  operator: institution
  evidence: >-
    Crossref member 11371, primary-name "La Trobe University". GET
    https://api.crossref.org/members/11371 returns HTTP 200 (2026-08-30).
- id: orcid
  conforms: unknown
  evidence: >-
    No machine-readable evidence of an institutional ORCID membership or an ORCID
    integration endpoint on a latrobe.edu.au host was found. OPAL records carry ORCID
    identifiers on author objects, but that is a Figshare platform field, not a La Trobe
    interface, so it is not counted here.
- id: scim
  conforms: false
  evidence: >-
    No SCIM endpoint found. The only institution-operated API host, api.latrobe.edu.au,
    is an Azure API Management developer portal that redirects every unauthenticated path
    to /signin (HTTP 200 on the sign-in page), so nothing it fronts is externally visible.
- id: lti
  conforms: false
  evidence: >-
    No LTI tool or platform registration endpoint (/.well-known/lti-*, /lti/) responded on
    any latrobe.edu.au host probed on 2026-08-30.
- id: oneroster
  conforms: false
  evidence: No OneRoster endpoint or claim found on any La Trobe host.
- id: ed-fi
  conforms: false
  evidence: No Ed-Fi endpoint or claim found; Ed-Fi is a US K-12 standard and is not expected here.
- id: caliper
  conforms: false
  evidence: No Caliper Analytics endpoint or claim found on any La Trobe host.
- id: qti
  conforms: false
  evidence: No QTI item bank or assessment interface found on any La Trobe host.
