Hi Splunk Experts, I hope to get a quick hint on my issue. I have a Splunk Cloud setup with two search heads, one of which is dedicated to Enterprise Security. I have different lookups on this search head containing, e.g., all user attributes. I wanted to enhance a specific search using the lookup command as described in the documentation. Additionally, I can access and view the lookup with the inputlookup command, confirming the file’s existence and proper permissions on the search head. The search I have trouble with (simplified): index=main source_type=some_event_related_to_users
| lookup ldap_users.csv identity as src_user However, this search instantaneously fails with: [idx-[...].splunkcloud.com,idx-[...].splunkcloud.com,idx-[...].splunkcloud.com] The lookup table 'ldap_users.csv' does not exist or is not available. I must confess I am rather new to Splunk and even newer to running a Splunk cluster. So I do not really understand why my indexers are looking for the file in the first place. I assumed that the search head would handle the lookup. In addition, as I am a Splunk Cloud customer, I don’t have access to the indexers anyway. Can someone give me a pointer on how to achieve such a query in a Splunk Cloud Environment?
