Hi @aaa2324,

you have to use a subsearch of the main search containing an inputlookup command, only one attention: fieldnames must be the same both in main search and lookup or remene one of them.

Please try something like this:

index=abc sourcetype=xyz NOT [ | inputlookup data.csv | rename ccid AS found | fields found ]
| ...

Ciao.

Giuseppe
