Hi,

I am getting below error while uploading a csv in lookup table file.

 

Your entry was not saved. The following error was reported: SyntaxError: Unexpected token < in JSON at position 0.

Where and how are you uploading the CSV file? Are you talking about WebUI? Are you talking about lookup editor API? Something else?

May be its because of authentication issue, log out from the splunk web and try to upload again.

Make sure that the csv file format is not changed.

for better clarification upload some other small csv file and check if you are facing the same issue by the way you can confirm there is no issue with csv file format.
