file definition refers to the specifications and structure for reading or writing files used in integrations. These file definitions outline the format, fields, and data types expected in files (such as CSV, JSON, or XML) when transferring data between systems. The file definition helps to ensure that the data being imported or exported is consistent and can be mapped correctly to target fields in an integration flow.
