To include 80+ applications in SPL

Hello Everyone,

I have got the list of 80+ applications this I want to include in my SPL. Is there a way I can use CSV lookup to do that? The applications list look like:-

APP-ID,DESCRIPTION
A1*,test app 1
B2*,test app 2
C3*,test app 3
D4*,test app 4
...

Sample SPL I would like to create to include these applications:-

index=app-data  APP-ID=A1* OR APP-ID=B2* OR APP-ID=C3* OR APP-ID=D4*.... | 

I am not using the DESCRIPTION as mentioned in the sample CSV above at this stage. I am just trying to figure out if there is a way to look up these applications from a CSV file rather then having to type these in the SPL or if there is any other alternative please suggest.

Thank you,
Rajat

Hello,

If you already have the csv as a lookup, it's perfect.
You can do something like that in your SPL :

index=app-data [|inputlookup yourLookup | fields APP-ID]

It should work for you.
