SDMX-ML Structure

Overview

The Structure message is an official SDMX format used for transmission of structural metadata. It is known as one of the SDMX-ML formats, in that it is SDMX whose representation is in XML.

XML schemas formally specifying the structure of the message are maintained in the SDMX GitHub Repository with additional PDF documentation on the SDMX Website.

The SDMX-ML Structure message closely mirrors the SDMX Information Model. For this reason, the current SDMX-ML 2.1 message is specific to the version 2.1 information model. Similarly, SDMX-ML 2.0 and SDMX-ML 1.0 reflect the information models of those versions of the Standard to which they relate.
