lookup input value null

Hey,

I am trying to work with lookup table where input contains 3 fields (A,B,C) and output is D

Lookup table structure:

ABCD
ab d

 

Here is my configuration:

props.conf:

LOOKUP-result = lookup_table A B C OUTPUT D

transform.conf:

[lookup_table]

filename...

 

When I run query where there is no field named C (for example: A=a, B=b), the returned output is "a" which is not what I expect it to be "d".

What am I missing here? How can I fix it?

Try something like below:

LOOKUP-result = lookup_table A as A, B as B, C as C OUTPUT D
