Overview

SDMX structural metadata (structures for short) describe the data and need to be created before you can start working with the data itself. They are equivalent to the empty tables and relationships in a SQL database before any data is inserted.

If you have access to structures in a suitable SDMX format like SDMX-ML (ML) or SDMX-JSON the you can start working immediately with those. Login using the admin account created at install and click the LoadStructuresOrReferenecMetadata.PNG button to load from file.

The rest of this guide explains how to download some example structures from Metadata Technology's cloud demonstration Fusion Registry service https://demo.metadatatechnology.com/FusionRegistry
