I have a dataverse table with a lookup column to another dataverse table (one is customer accounts, the other is additional customer information) - the lookup is on the Additional Customer table looking up the customer account.
I was given the data to import and it contained the account number as a text field.
Is there a way - rather than me manually selecting the account from the dropdown - to populate all the lookup fields for this existing data???? It's only another 687 records, so not an impossibly long job, but would love to know if it's possible to do with a patch or update from within my app!
When we import data we can use the default functionality of importing data from Excel
Here you have the documentation that tells you about other ways to do it, I recommend Excel, it will be faster and easier.

When you are important in the Lookup field you can select the field for which you want to make the type of match
Notice how the fields of the related table appear in the image, by putting a value of one of the fields in the column you can import it from excel or csv. However, it is advisable to do it by the identifier or by a field whose value is unique.
