I followed the instructions in the help guide, but, when creating the custom columns, I didn't know / couldn't find what to put in the 'lookup' field for those custom columns, which may be why I can't get them to work. The columns were created and show up correctly and I chose them within the plugin customization, but they are still blank, I can't get it to display the percent completion of my books. Any tips / help?

In particular what confused me is the guide says to create custom columns, but doesn't say what to put in the lookup field, and the custom columns can't be created without putting something in that field, so I just put some random letters. The guide also says to select a device, but no devices show up for me because I'm using this on windows desktop, not an on e-book reader.
Why is this in Kobo Utilities??
That PI queries the attached Kobo for the reading progress.
