Acceleration - Search including lookup

[HeinzWaescher]

Hi,

I would like to use Report Acceleration. My search is using a lookupfile and this lookupfile is updated once a day. Will the acceleration write the summary before using the lookup? So that the search will always use the latest version/information of my lookupfile?

Hello Heinz,

If you create an Automatic lookup with your lookupfile the updated information will be accelerated when you modify your file.

Best regards,

Hello again,

So your CSV file contains the last activity and the other info is from your search ?

Try using Automatic lookups instead of a lookup file that way you won't need to use the 'lookup' command but as far as Acceleration goes I think that once you accelerate a certain search, the results of the acceleration dont get modified over time unless you explicitly program schedule the search to run everyday after the lookupfile is re-written.

Best regards,
David

Hi,

I do it like this in the search string:

my search | lookup file.csv user_id OUTPUT last_activity |

The last_activity per user is written to the lookupfile each day at 00:00. So the last activity can change every time per user_id when the lookupfile is updated.

What I need is, that the latest last_activity is used for all former events per user_id, when I run the accelerated search.
