SCORECARD

ExistenceGOODDatahub exposes a configuration-driven GraphQL endpoint plus a read-only Simple REST API over objects and assets, with webhooks.
AccessMIXEDOpen source and self-hosted: access is whatever each deployment configures, endpoint by endpoint.
CoverageGOODGraphQL with a generated schema and GraphiQL explorer, plus REST tree-items, search, and get-element operations.
AuthMIXEDStatic per-endpoint API keys are the only auth mechanism on every Datahub surface.
Docs & DXMIXEDDocs and a GraphiQL explorer exist, but the schema is generated per deployment, so references differ install to install.
StabilityMIXEDEach of the 118,000+ installs generates its own schema, so there is no single stable contract across deployments.

Supergood: Pimcore has an API, with gaps. We cover what it's missing: stable endpoints, normalized JSON, managed auth.
