Data Overview

OwlAPI serves data directly from MyPortal. It does not try to filter or add anything new to the format to maintain purity to the original. For now, only the most recent quarter's data is pulled from MyPortal. On opencourse.dev (opens new window), seat data is synced every 5 minutes with MyPortal.

This following, including data formats, is subject to change with the latest ongoing development.
