- In the [Component Registry](https://www.clarin.eu/componentregistry): open the drop down menu on the far right column of the profile’s row and select **Download XSD (CMDI 1.1)** or **Download XSD (CMDI 1.2)** depending on the support and requirements of your tools, repository etc ([more information](https://www.clarin.eu/cmdi12)).
- Or use the web service directly and download the XSD from the following url (if you know the profile ID)
  - For CMDI 1.1: [http://catalog.clarin.eu/ds/ComponentRegistry/rest/registry/1.1/profiles/ **clarin.eu:cr1:p\_1288172614017** /xsd](http://catalog.clarin.eu/ds/ComponentRegistry/rest/registry/profiles/clarin.eu:cr1:p_1288172614017/xsd) - where the part in boldface stands for the unique profile ID
  - For CMDI 1.2: [http://catalog.clarin.eu/ds/ComponentRegistry/rest/registry/1.2/profiles/ **clarin.eu:cr1:p\_1288172614017** /xsd](http://catalog.clarin.eu/ds/ComponentRegistry/rest/registry/profiles/clarin.eu:cr1:p_1288172614017/xsd) - where the part in boldface stands for the unique profile ID
