  title: IRIS Repository (DSpace REST API) Core API
  description: Public DSpace 7 REST/HATEOAS API (IRIS version 1.3.8) serving the IRIS institutional research repository at the University of Lausanne (UNIL). Exposes communities, collections, items, bundles and bitstreams via a HAL-based hypermedia API. Anonymous read access is available for public content; some endpoints (e.g. /core/items listing) require authentication. This specification was reconstructed from the live API root at https://api.unil.ch/iris/server/api and confirmed against live responses; only confirmed public read endpoints and observed object shapes are included.
