Here you can find the old version of DDEX Standards. DDEX recommends to always implement the latest version but sometimes users require access to an older version (e.g. for debugging or maintaining an implementation based on an older version, or even for planning to upgrade to the latest version). This page does not provide versions that have been withdrawn because of bugs.
All old versions are provided in the form of a zip archive that can be downloaded. The XSDs for all old standard remain valid and remain to be hosted on the DDEX website.
The allowed value sets provided on this page provides only those values that were included in the standard at the time of publication. Where DDEX has added further values into such allowed value sets over time, these may not be provided in in the XSDs reference from this page. The XSDs hosted on ddex.net/xml will always provide the latest set of allowed value sets for the relevant standards.
