How to configure Lookup File Editor App for Splunk Enterprise to be called from other app's navigation menu?

Hi,

I want to call to "Lookup File Editor App for Splunk Enterprise" from another app. The idea is when you press over the option, launch lookup editor, and a specific cvs file.

It was working in old version of "lookup editor" but now it is not working. My navigation menu was:

.....
    'href="/app/Servicios/lookup_edit?path=myapp/mycustom.csv">Edit cvs'
....

Thank you

Hi apezuela,
in your default.xml you have to put

<a href="/app/lookup_editor/lookup_edit?owner=nobody&amp;namespace=yourapp&amp;lookup=yourlookup&amp;type=csv">Lookup Name</a>

You can see the correct command in your browser URL.
Bye.
Giuseppe

You might want to try something along these lines:

/lookup_edit?owner=<OWNER OF THE CSV>&namespace=<APP OF THE CSV>&lookup=<THE LOOKUP FILE>.csv&type=csv

So in your case (I'm guessing here):

/lookup_edit?owner=nobody&namespace=myapp&lookup=mycustom.csv&type=csv
