    <title>topic How to use an index for a lookup in Splunk Search</title>
    <link>https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/How-to-use-an-index-for-a-lookup/m-p/368136#M162125</link>
    <description>&lt;P&gt;Noob question.&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;I had about a dozen CSVs that had the same information on them but the columns were out of order.  I imported them all into a new index and splunk sorted it out no problem.  The information on the tables is for the most part static and I would like to use the lookup command and automatic lookups to enrich other indexes with the information in the new index.  Is this possible or do I need to export the index as a csv and re-upload it as a lookup table?&lt;/P&gt;</description>

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Hi There,&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;You could quite possibly be looking for the inputlookup and outputlookup commands, if you were to write a search using the index that has your csv data in then you could use the above commands to essentially create a new lookup file to be used elsewhere as an automatic lookup&lt;/P&gt;

      <description>&lt;P&gt;Well one of the option is definitely outputlookup your current "index made of lookups" and the use the &lt;STRONG&gt;lookup&lt;/STRONG&gt; command to enrich other data with it.&lt;/P&gt;

&lt;P&gt;If you really want to stick with the index format, I'd suggest you to take a look at the join command:&lt;/P&gt;
