How to return values from lookup table based on input given?

amitrinx

I have a lookup table with three columns Endpoints, Rate, Window
I want to get the window value for a particular endpoint provided by me which i will use in my main query

The Query looks like this

sourcetype="blabla" http_url = "some endpoint"
minutesago= |inputlookup SomeFile.csv | search Endpoint = "Some endpoint" | return Window

I get an error running this query
Error in 'search' command: Unable to parse the search: Comparator '=' is missing a term on the right hand side.

Can anyone help?

It looks like you're trying to use a subsearch without putting the subsearch inside brackets.

sourcetype="blabla" http_url = "some endpoint"
minutesago=[|inputlookup SomeFile.csv | search Endpoint = "Some endpoint" | return $Window]

Using $Window tells the return command to return only the field value rather than a key/value pair.
