You should place the lookup file in your app directory, so for example if you are just using the default "search" app you would put it in (assuming Splunk is installed in "Program Files" under D drive:

 D:\Program Files\Splunk\etc\apps\search\lookups\keywords.csv

Or if you have set up your own app, for example "myApp", you would put it:

 D:\Program Files\Splunk\etc\apps\myApp\lookups\keywords.csv

You will also need to create/edit a transforms.conf file in the same directory to tell Splunk to use the lookup:

 D:\Program Files\Splunk\etc\apps\<appName>\local\transforms.conf

And with the contents of (where the file is new):

[keywords]
filename = keywords.conf

You do not need to restart Splunk for this usually.

Hope this helps
