Splunk CSV Lookup

Loves-to-Learn

Hello Guys,

I've run into a problem. I created a dashboard where you can edit and delete lookup entries by user input. The problem is that when the user deletes the last entry of the lookup, the header of the CSV disappears and when a Saved Search is run, it cannot find the defined fields.

Does anyone have a solution to keep the header fields even if the last line is deleted, apart from creating a KV store?

With friendly greetings
Christoph
