Hi

I am going to create a DC list lookup daily using nslookup

how I can I define the lookup without a header  or I should create a header manually  ?

Hi @rayar,

no you have only to create your lookup and the Lookup Definition (don't forget it!) and then save the nslookup command output in it.

Ciao.

How I can define that the lookup doesn't have a header  and the first line is a value  ?

Hi @rayar,

how do you think to populate the lookup, using a search or a script?

is using a search, at the end of the search (before the outputlookup command) you'll use the table command listing all the fields that are the output of your search, this will be the header for your lookup defining the lookup fields list.

Ciao.
