• Hover over RegionsByCounty and press - Add a new Connector
• Move the pointer over the top of Customer Details with Region and select – this will attach the end of the pipe to the selected Stream
• In the Pipe Setup form that pops up:
  • Enter the Name: region
  • Type: Look-up
  • Data To Read: leave as the default – Latest
  • Press Press Image Modified
  • In the matching attributes form that pops up create a match:
    • Drag the attribute County from the left hand box into the list of matching attributes
    • Drag the attribute in_County from the right hand box into the list of matching attributes – on top of the entry for County you created above

This means that the lookup will match records in the reference data (RegionsByCounty) where County = in_County in the output data (Customer Details with Region)
