NOTE
“Field Group” was previously referred to as a “Mixin” so these terms may be used interchangeably throughout the API requests and guide.

Request XDM standard field groups

  1. Click on Step 1 - Get XDM Standard Field Groups API call in the XDM Schema Lab -> Create Schema folder
  2. Execute the call by clicking the Send button

Request

Step 1 - Get XDM Standard Field Groups API request

NOTE
Note the use of global value in the requests URL below:
https://platform.adobe.io/data/foundation/schemaregistry/global/mixins
global is used to request only XDM standard components (field group/mixin in this case). There are two types of owners in the Experience Platform XDM registry: Adobe and Tenant (i.e. custom).
  • Adobe created objects always use the word global in any XDM listing or lookup requests
  • Tenant created objects (i.e custom) always use the word tenant in any XDM listing or lookup call
