In specific circumstances, it may be necessary to create an Experience Data Model (XDM) schema with fields that are namespaced for usage only by a single dataset. This is referred to as an ad-hoc schema. Ad-hoc schemas are used in several data ingestion workflows, including ingesting CSV files and creating certain types of source connectors. For more information on ad-hoc schemas, including steps on how to create one in the Schema Registry API, please refer to the ad-hoc schema tutorial.
