Inputlookup - Pulling Mutiple columns

Morning Community,

Looking at a way to pull multiple columns into an alert Im attempting to build. In the below syntax this gives me hits on the a src IP that appears in the lookupfile which is great however I also want to pull in extra columns associated with the hit on that IP.

The lookup file contains columns labelled "tag" "info" and "comment" which would further enhance the usefulness of this alert.

index=netscaler sourcetype="citrix:netscaler:syslog" citrix_netscaler_event_name=LOGIN action=success app=SSLVPN | search [| inputlookup my.csv | rename value as src | fields src ]

I've tried this and returns no results.

index=netscaler sourcetype="citrix:netscaler:syslog" citrix_netscaler_event_name=LOGIN action=success app=SSLVPN
| search [| inputlookup my.csv | rename value as src | fields src ]
| lookup my.csv info as src.info output info as src.info

Any thoughts at all? This article was a little similar to what Im trying to do, except I need the extra columns data from the src IP hits from the 1st part of the alert.  https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Pulling-multiple-Columns-from-an-inputlookup/m-p/42474...

index=netscaler sourcetype="citrix:netscaler:syslog" citrix_netscaler_event_name=LOGIN action=success app=SSLVPN  [| inputlookup my.csv | rename value as src | fields src | format ]
| lookup my.csv info as src.info output info as src.info

 

But you don't have the src field, do you?
