is there any way to edit an app-level lookup table

[bjalex80]

I have a user who has created a lookup table and given it app-level permissions. Now the same user wants to add new entries to the lookup table. They can upload it as private, but cannot update the app-level table without deleting the existing one first. Any way around this that can be accomplished in the UI?

You have 3 methods to edit lookup

• Access the lookup file in the filesystem
• Upload the new version of the lookup file in the UI (after changing the read permissions on the object in the UI)
• Or a third method is to use a search to update the lookup table. inputlookup mylookup | append [ search to add my new lines ] | dedup uniquefields | outputlookup mylookup

so if the issue is a permission issue, have an admin change the permissions on the lookup file/definition for a role, and add the user to this role.
