No,Actually using flatfile dictionary we can create flatfileSchema this is the standard behaviour by referrencing the dictionary/fields.

Hi sarita,
generally we create a flat file dictionary and create schema from it by referencing it. What do you exactly mean by flat file definition. i didn’t get it. can you elaborate?

Have a look at these 2 services:
pub.flatFile.generate:getFFDictionaryAsXML
pub.flatFile.generate:saveXMLAsFFDictionary

You can try saving the schema as xml and creating the Dictionary xml from it and then using the get service to read it.

Worth a try if you absolutely need to do this.
