This is not our API. This repository is an independent, third-party profile of a company's publicly available API surface, maintained by API Evangelist. API Evangelist does not operate, host, resell, or support this company's APIs, and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the company unless stated on the profile.
Where the information came from. Everything here is assembled from material a member of the public can reach with a browser and no credentials — the company's own website, developer portal and documentation, the specifications it publishes for public use (OpenAPI, AsyncAPI, JSON Schema,
apis.json,llms.txtand similar), its public repositories, and its public status, pricing and changelog pages. Nothing here is obtained by breaching a system, defeating an access control, or using credentials of any kind.The rating is an independent assessment. The Kin Score and Agent Readiness rating are independently calculated scores of a company's public API artifacts, produced by API Evangelist against a published rubric. They are not certifications, endorsements, security assessments, or audits, and they score published artifacts — not the quality, safety, or security of the software.
Corrections, re-scores, and removal are free. No partnership, contract, or purchase is required, and you do not need to justify the request.
- Something wrong? Open an issue on this repository, or email info@apievangelist.com.
- Published something new? Ask for a re-score and we will re-run the rating.
- Want the listing taken down? Say so and we will honor it. The profile is reduced to your company name, a factual description, and a link to your own site, and the company is recorded as unrated — never scored zero for having asked.
Response times. Acknowledgement within one business day; removal or restriction within two business days; corrections and re-scores within five business days.
Not from the company, and here with a question? You are welcome here — we would rather be the front line and point you the right way than have a good report go nowhere. What this repository can answer is narrow, though, so it is worth knowing who you are actually looking for:
- A question about how the API works, an account, billing, or a bug in the service — that is the company's own support, not us. We profile this API; we do not operate it and cannot see your account.
- A bug in an open-source project we only catalog — file it on that project's own repository. This has happened with a real and correct bug report that reached us instead of the people who could fix it, which helped nobody.
- Anything about this listing itself — the description, the tags, the rating, a missing or wrong artifact — is ours. Open an issue here.
- Not sure, or something general about API Evangelist or APIs.io — open an issue on the APIs.io Inbox and we will route it.
This repository contains no software, and we will never ask you to download anything. There is no build, release, installer, or binary here — only text and machine-readable API descriptions, so there is nothing here that can be "corrupt" or need "repairing". Any issue, comment, or email claiming otherwise and offering a download link is not from us and is hostile. Do not follow the link; it is a lure. Report it to GitHub and, if you like, tell us at info@apievangelist.com so we can take it down.
On a security or compliance team? Email info@apievangelist.com with security in the subject line and you will get a person, not a form. We will tell you exactly which public URLs this profile was built from so your team can see the same surface we did, and we will take the listing down on request while you work through it.
Full detail: Where this data comes from
GoGuardian is a K-12 education technology company. Its suite - Admin (DNS and device content filtering for CIPA compliance across ChromeOS, Windows, and macOS), Teacher (classroom management and student engagement), and Beacon (student safety and suicide / self-harm risk detection) - is administered through web dashboards rather than a broadly published public developer API.
Access model (important): GoGuardian's own outbound developer API surface is partner / district gated. There is no public self-serve developer signup that yields an API key against a documented GoGuardian REST catalog. GoGuardian's documented integration model is primarily consumer-side roster ingestion: it syncs organizations (OUs), students, teachers, guardians, classes, and enrollments from a district's Student Information System via the 1EdTech OneRoster 1.1 REST API (using a Consumer ID / Secret and a OneRoster URL), and via Clever, ClassLink, and Google Classroom. The "Enable API Access" help articles concern enabling Google Workspace / Google Admin APIs for GoGuardian to consume, not exposing a GoGuardian API. A developer / partner documentation portal exists at based.goguardian.com ("GoGuardian Based Docs"), but it did not expose an openly enumerable public REST reference, base URL, or self-serve API-key flow at review time.
The API entries below are honestly modeled logical surfaces (endpointsModeled), not a confirmed public REST endpoint catalog.

Consumer-side roster synchronization. GoGuardian ingests organizations (OUs), students, teachers, guardians, classes, and enrollments from a district's Student Information System via the OneRoster 1.1 REST API (configured with a Consumer ID, Consumer Secret, and a OneRoster base URL), or via Clever, ClassLink, and Google Classroom. This is GoGuardian pulling standards-based roster data, not a GoGuardian-owned REST API.

GoGuardian maintains a developer / integration documentation portal at based.goguardian.com ("GoGuardian Based Docs"). Access to GoGuardian's outbound developer surface is partner-gated - there is no openly enumerable public REST reference, base URL, or self-serve API key flow published for third-party developers as of the review date. Documented as a gated developer surface; endpoints modeled, not confirmed.

GoGuardian Beacon analyzes student browsing (and, via a Google Docs API integration, document) activity to detect signals of suicide, self-harm, and other safety risk, then routes time-stamped alerts through dashboard, email, and SMS notifications with configurable escalation paths. Beacon's alerting is configured and consumed through the Admin dashboard and notification channels rather than a published public alerts REST API.
GoGuardian does not publish standard pricing. It is contact-sales, per-student, with volume and multi-year term discounts (widely reported in the roughly $1.50-$6.00 per student / month range depending on bundle and term). There is no published developer API plan or metered API pricing.
Does GoGuardian expose a documented public WebSocket API? No. See review.yml. GoGuardian publishes no WebSocket (ws:// / wss://) API; realtime behavior (live class views, Beacon alerts) is delivered inside GoGuardian's own hosted UI and notification channels, not as a public server-push transport.
