Always see this errors:

This is a permission error in some way.
Sometime it is becuase a user have shared something globally.

When an app have the error it is often that it is not shared globally or not shared to the correct users, or from the wrong app.

Apps -> Manage Apps -> Sharing -> Permission

It can also be a good idee to search for the lookup yourself from other apps or the same and see if it will give you some hints)
Settings -> Lookups -> Lookup Definitions and search for the reported lookup. There you will see the name of the lookup file being used and the app which should own it. Create/replace the lookup file with the same name in that app

What happens when you search for the lookup from an other app, or the same?

Go to Settings -> Lookups -> Lookup Definitions and search for the reported lookup. There you will see the name of the lookup file being used and the app which should own it. Create/replace the lookup file with the same name in that app and the error will go away (its worth a test)

And try change the permission on the other way so they are not shared globally only in app, but everyone can read them.

How about read permission? And is it shared globally and not just in app?

I updated my answer.
I have the app shared globally with everyone read and admin to write.
It maybe some local config errors on the lookup so try if you can use them urself.

Check your local.meta file at the following path:

/opt/splunk/etc/apps/Splunk_TA_cisco-asa/metadata

and look for this stanza

[lookups]
access = read : [  power, sc_admin ],
write : [ ess_analyst, power, sc_admin ]
export = system
version = 9.1.2308.201
modtime = 1710775209.916764000



then add the role to the access like so:

access = read : [  user ,power, sc_admin ]




If this answer helped, let me know.
