Can you let us know the steps you tried?

Open Lookup Editor
Select "Create New Lookup" and select CSV lookup from the drop down
Enter the CSV Name and choose the appropriate App Context
Enter your CSV data and hit save.

If that doesn't work can you get us the version of Splunk that you're on along with the App Version?

My splunk version is 6.1.1, App version is 2.3.1

My step is following

Open Lookup Editor
Select "Create a New Lookup"
Select "Import" and select file to import
Choose "Search & Reporting" in App column
Select "Save Lookup"

Then it show
"This lookup file could not be found"

Hello,

For some reason, Lookup File Editor doesn't work on some occasions.
I managed to upload a lookup file by manually uploading it on the Settings > Lookups > Lookup table files > New

Thanks,
