I have a lookup with 461 usernames. I want to input the lookup to Splunk and display corresponding First and Last name from Splunk Enterprise Security Identities.

Any ideas how to construct that search?

|inputlookup users | `identities`

the search was missing `` around drop_dm_object_name("All_Identities")

Corrected and run it but it does not populate first and last name.
