Hi Guys,

I have created a kvstore lookup file with collection name as kvstore_collection and corresponding lookup file under transforms as kvstore_transforms
When i write the data into this lookup file it is showing as results written to collection "kvstore_collection" . But im not able to find the results file on the server.
What is the location of this file on the server ??

This kvstore lookup file is setup under search app.

Thanks for any help..

The kvstore lookups reside in mongodb.

They will not be "viewable" on the command line without running a splunk search command or curl, etc.

Ok the actual problem here is as an admin i have setup everything and im able to load the data into the lookup file.But when user is trying to add the data into this file he is getting "error in outputlookup command have insufficient priviliges" but for both collections and lookup i have given them the write access
How to troubleshoot this
