Info

Repeated values in the key field

The field selected as key upon the lookup definition should not contain repeated values. If so, only the last value in the file will be kept, and the rest of the events with that value repeated will be discarded.

In the example below, if you select user as key field, only the second event for Mike will be considered.

User, Count;

Mike, 23; Lisa, 423; Mike, 54; Lara, 21

Click Create Lookuplookup. You will receive a notification when the file is uploaded. Note this may take a few minutes.

Once uploaded, you can find the lookup in:

  • Data Searchsearch → Lookup Managementmanagement. Here you can manage and edit lookup tables (visit this article to know more). The lookup table will be ready when the indicator in the Status field turns green.

  • Data Searchsearch → Explore Your Datayour data. Select the tags in the finder my.lookuplist.<lookupname> to open lookups as data tables and apply operations as you would do with any other data table.
