Splunk Search

How do you find the properties/metadata of a lookup file via REST API?

We have certain automated lookup files, which get updated by various feeds. Any chance to get the properties of these lookup files like last modified, size ? i.e. metadata about the lookup file using REST API?

As per Splunk API, i checked below properties endpoint, but it can drill down up-to the list of lookup files and not specific lookup/csv files. The last_updated field is incorrect in this endpoint and hence this doesn't work. I'm looking for a similar one

| rest splunk_server=local /services/properties/lookups/
