I have 1 CSV file and that CSV file will be recreated everyday (not updated but totally recreated). i need the new data and compare the data to one of my index. How do i do this? Creating an index would not be good idea as there are 23 CSVs and moreover comparing 2 indexes is quite complicated. Any ideas how to solve this?</P> <P>please ask if you need more info.</P> Mon, 24 Oct 2016 08:51:51 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Can-we-schedule-Splunk-to-monitor-a-lookup/m-p/269267#M80991 ivar9692 2016-10-24T08:51:51Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Can-we-schedule-Splunk-to-monitor-a-lookup/m-p/269268#M80992 <P>maybe, check time-based lookup... <BR /> <A href="https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.5.0/Knowledge/Usefieldlookupstoaddinformationtoyourevents">https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.5.0/Knowledge/Usefieldlookupstoaddinformationtoyourevents</A><BR /> <STRONG>Configure a time-based lookup</STRONG><BR /> File-based and external lookups can also be time-based (or temporal), if the field matching depends on time information (a field in the lookup table that represents the timestamp).</P> <P>To Configure a time-based lookup, select Configure time-based lookup, then specify the Name of the time field.
