Cannot expand lookup field 'triggertype' due to a reference cycle in the lookup configuration.

Hi Team,

After the upgradation to splunk version 8.2.2.1, we have started seeing "warn" in the one specific dashboard with warning as "cannot expand lookup field 'triggertype' due to a reference cycle in the lookup configuration.check search.log for details and update configuration to remove th reference cycle".

I have seen others splunk community answers for field userid.

But i would like to know the exact resolution for this triggertype field.

Regards,
