SPLK-1001 Exam - Question 23


What must be done in order to use a lookup table in Splunk?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: C

In order to use a lookup table in Splunk, the lookup file must be uploaded to Splunk and a lookup definition must be created. This is necessary to properly define how the lookup table should be used and accessed within Splunk searches. Simply copying and pasting the contents into the search bar, or relying on automatic configurations, does not fulfill the necessary requirements for setting up a lookup table in Splunk.

"All lookup types require a lookup definition. After you create a lookup definition you can invoke the lookup in a search with the lookup command." https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/9.1.2/Knowledge/Aboutlookupsandfieldactions
