    <title>topic How to automatically call REST API on specific event field? in Getting Data In</title>
    <link>https://community.splunk.com/t5/Getting-Data-In/How-to-automatically-call-REST-API-on-specific-event-field/m-p/586638#M103111</link>
    <description>&lt;P&gt;I have an external API subscription that I want to call when a specific field in my Splunk event is present (e.g. City_Name). The REST API call would query the external API for &amp;lt;City_Name&amp;gt; and add the returned data (in JSON format) into Splunk to enrich the event.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;I've seen something similar with using "lookup" but looking for a tutorial on how to build this so that when the event field is present, the external API can be called to download the additional enrichment data.&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Suggestions / tutorials on how I might go about implementing this in Splunk?&lt;/P&gt;
&lt;P&gt;Thanks.&lt;/P&gt;</description>
