so i have a index paloalto and a lookup file both have 1 field common app , now i want app which are present in lookup and index as well but there is a problem like in lookup if there is Alexa as an app then in index its amazon-alexa , or in lookup it is "windows xbox" in index it is "xbox-live" and some matches perfectly lilke spotify now tell me a spl where if any part of the name matches just display the app name from lookup as well as index.

To further @PickleRick 's recommendation, how about you tell us how that lookup is produced?  What control do you have over that production?

One way or another, you need to describe the logic to "match" index field app to lookup field app.  Why does windows xbox match xbox-live?  Does windows-xbox match xbox-unalive, too?  Why doesn't windows-xbox match mail box?

Hi @SN1 ,

you could try something like this:

index=paloalto [ | inputlookup your_lookup.csv | rename app AS query | fields query ]

Ciao.

You either need to fix your lookup or make an intermediate lookup for matching one set 0f values with another. How else is your Splunk supposed to know which values match which ones? Guess? Pick at random?
