If that is correct, what you need to do is to change the sharing permission of the TA lookup(s) to Global, with allowing read to all roles that you want to have access to the lookups. See this for the instruction on changing sharing permission:<BR /> <A href="http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.5.2/Knowledge/Manageknowledgeobjectpermissions#Permissions_-_Getting_started">http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.5.2/Knowledge/Manageknowledgeobjectpermissions#Permissions_-_Getting_started</A><BR /> <A href="http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/SplunkCloud/6.5.1612/PivotTutorial/AddlookupfilestoSplunk#Share_the_lookup_definition_with_all_apps">http://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/SplunkCloud/6.5.1612/PivotTutorial/AddlookupfilestoSplunk#Share_the_lookup_definition_with_all_apps</A></P> Thu, 23 Feb 2017 19:04:15 GMT somesoni2 2017-02-23T19:04:15Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Is-it-possible-to-use-inputlookup-from-a-file-in-a-different/m-p/323965#M20909 <P>I have an add-on (TA) and dashboard apps. The TA creates data in the lookups that I want the dashboard to access. Is there a way the dashboard can get access to the TA directory?</P> Thu, 23 Feb 2017 16:50:45 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Is-it-possible-to-use-inputlookup-from-a-file-in-a-different/m-p/323965#M20909 joel_ebrahimi 2017-02-23T16:50:45Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Dashboards-Visualizations/Is-it-possible-to-use-inputlookup-from-a-file-in-a-different/m-p/323966#M20910 <P>If I'm guessing right, there is lookup file available with TA apps context (only shared within TA) and you want to use it from other apps.
