= 1 Introduction =

At the core of the [[SDMX>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Statistical data and metadata exchange.WebHome]] XML messages are the message namespaces. These namespaces define the general structure of all messages and define the specific messages that are available for exchange in [[SDMX>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Statistical data and metadata exchange.WebHome]].

8

9

There are two namespaces associated with the messages. The main namespace schema which defines every message in [[SDMX>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Statistical data and metadata exchange.WebHome]] is http://www.sdmx.org/resources/sdmxml/schemas/v3_1/message. Associated with this is another sub-namespace, http://www.sdmx.org/resources/sdmxml/schemas/v3_1/message/footer. This namespace defines footer (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)level(%%) information that is available in messages which might require non-standard payload information to be transmitted.

10

11

In general, every message in [[SDMX>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Statistical data and metadata exchange.WebHome]] follows common format of:

* Header

* Payload (0..n)

* Footer (0..1)

The header and payload elements exist in the message namespace, but the content of the payload is defined in the namespaces that are specific the functionality of the messages. Note that the header follows a common construct, which is then restricted according to the requirements of the message which is using it.

=== 2.1.2 Global Elements ===

45

46

**Structure (StructureType):** Structure is a message that contains [[structural metadata>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Structural metadata.WebHome]]. It may contain any of the following; categorisations, [[category schemes>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Category scheme.WebHome]], [[code lists>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Code list.WebHome]], (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)concepts(%%) ([[concept schemes>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Concept scheme.WebHome]]), data and metadata (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)constraints(%%), [[data flows>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dataflow.WebHome]], [[hierarchical code lists>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Hierarchical code list.WebHome]], [[metadata flows>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Metadataflow.WebHome]], [[metadata structure definitions>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Metadata structure definition.WebHome]], organisation schemes, processes, [[reporting taxonomies>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Reporting taxonomy.WebHome]], structure (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)maps(%%), [[representation>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Representation.WebHome]] (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)maps(%%), .

47

48

**StructureSpecificData (StructureSpecificDataType):** StructureSpecificData is used to convey data structure specific according to [[data structure definition>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data structure definition.WebHome]]. The payload of this message (i.e. the [[data sets>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data set.WebHome]]) will be based on XML schemas which are specific to the [[data structure definition>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Data structure definition.WebHome]] and the orientation (i.e. the observation [[dimension>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Dimension.WebHome]]) of the data.

49

50

**GenericMetadata (GenericMetadataType):** GenericMetadata contains reported metadata in a format which supports any metadata structure definition.

51

52

**RegistryInterface (RegistryInterfaceType):** RegistryInterface is used to conduct all interactions with the [[SDMX Registry>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.SDMX Registry.WebHome]] Services.

53

54

**SubmitStructureRequest (SubmitStructureRequestType):** SubmitStructureRequest is used to submit structure definitions to the repository. The structure resources (key families, agencies, (% style="color:#e74c3c" %)concepts(%%) and [[concept schemes>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Concept scheme.WebHome]], [[code lists>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.Code list.WebHome]], etc.) to be submitted may be communicated in-line or be supplied in a referenced [[SDMX-ML>>doc:sdmx:Glossary.SDMX-ML.WebHome]] Structure messages external to the registry. A response will indicate status and contain any relevant error information.

55

56

**SubmitStructureResponse (SubmitStructureResponseType):** SubmitStructureResponse is returned by the registry when a structure submission request is received. It indicates the status of the submission, and carries any error messages which are generated, if relevant.

57

58

**Error (ErrorType):** Error is used to communicate that an error has occurred when responding to a request in an non-registry environment. The content will be a collection of error messages.

59

60

=== 2.1.3 Complex Types ===

61

62

***MessageType:** MessageType is an abstract type which is used by all of the messages, to allow inheritance of common features. Every message consists of a mandatory header, followed by optional payload (which may occur multiple times), and finally an optional footer section for conveying error, warning, and informational messages.

Content:

Header, {any element with namespace of http://www.sdmx.org/resources/sdmxml/schemas/v3_1/message}*, Footer?

**StructureSpecificDataType:** StructureSpecificDataType defines the structure of the structure specific data message. Note that the data set payload type is abstract, and therefore it will have to be assigned a type in an instance. This type must be derived from the base type referenced. This base type defines a general structure which can be followed to allow for generic processing of the data even if the exact details of the data structure specific format are not known.
