Connect to NetSuite

Let's configure the NetSuite connection properties to connect to NetSuite.

Before you begin

Before you configure the connection properties, you'll need to get service URL, account, token ID, and token secret from your NetSuite account.
The following video shows you how to get the information you need:

Connection details

The following table describes the basic connection properties:
Property
Description
Connection Name
Name of the connection.
Each connection name must be unique within the organization. Connection names can contain alphanumeric characters, spaces, and the following special characters: _ . + -,
Maximum length is 255 characters.
Description
Description of the connection. Maximum length is 4000 characters.
Type
NetSuite
Use Secret Vault
Stores sensitive credentials for this connection in the secrets manager that is configured for your organization.
This property appears only if secrets manager is set up for your organization.
This property is not supported by Data Ingestion and Replication.
When you enable the secret vault in the connection, you can select which credentials that the Secure Agent retrieves from the secrets manager. If you don't enable this option, the credentials are stored in the repository or on a local Secure Agent, depending on how your organization is configured.
For information about how to configure and use a secrets manager, see Secrets manager configuration.
Runtime Environment
The name of the runtime environment where you want to run tasks.
Select a Secure Agent, Hosted Agent, or serverless runtime environment.
Do not use a Hosted Agent if you use the connection in mappings in advanced mode.
Service URL
NetSuite Web Service Description Language (WSDL) URL to access NetSuite data.
Consider the following rules for the authentication type that you can use for the WSDL versions:
  • - WSDL version 2016_1 to 2019_2. You can use username and password or token-based authentication. If you use both, the agent considers the token-based authentication to access Netsuite.
    • Note: Informatica recommends you to use the token-based authentication for a more secure access to NetSuite.
  • - WSDL version 2020_1 and later - You can use only token-based authentication.
From version 2019_2 of the NetSuite WSDL URL, you can enter the WSDL URL used by your NetSuite account instead of the default service URL.
The service URL used by the NetSuite account is in the following format:
<NetSuite account URL>/wsdl/v2019_2_0/netsuite.wsdl
Informatica recommends that you use the WSDL URL that is specific to your NetSuite account. For more information, see Configuring NetSuite account-specific service URL.
By default, NetSuite connections use version 2021_2_0 of the NetSuite WSDL URL as shown in the following URL:
https://webservices.netsuite.com/wsdl/v2021_2_0/netsuite.wsdl
Informatica claims support for 2021_2, 2021_1, and 2020_2 WSDLs. You can continue to use WSDL versions older than 2019_2. However, these versions will not receive bug fixes or support.
You can use NetSuite Connector with the NetSuite 2023_2 sandbox account or release preview account.
Account
NetSuite account ID.
To get your account ID, log in to NetSuite, and then click Setup > Integration > SOAP Web Services Preferences.
Token ID
The token ID generated in NetSuite.
Applies to token-based authentication.
Token Secret
The token secret generated in NetSuite.
Applies to token-based authentication.

Advanced settings

The following table describes the advanced connection properties:
Property
Description
Username
Applicable only when you use the username and password for authentication. User name for a NetSuite account. User name is an email address.
Password
Applicable only when you use the username and password for authentication. Password for the NetSuite account.
Application ID
Optional. NetSuite application ID.
If the application ID property is blank, the agent uses the Informatica application ID.
To find your application ID, log in to NetSuite and click Setup > Integration > Manage Integrations.
If you do not have an application ID, you can create one. On the Manage Integrations page, click New . After you save the application ID, you can view the application ID number on the Manage Integrations page.
Record Custom Fields
Specify custom NetSuite fields.
  • - Add the custom fields using the following format, where the value of scriptId is the ID field in the NetSuite user interface for each custom field:
    • [<Object Name>] scriptIds = <custom field name1>, <custom field name2>,<custom field name3>
    For example, [Sales] scriptIds = discountPrice, salesDescription,salesEvent3
  • - Add the custom fields for NetSuite advanced search using the following format, where the value of scriptId is the ID field in the NetSuite user interface for each custom field:
    • [<Object Name>] scriptIds = <custom field name1>, <custom field name2>,<custom field name3>
    For example, [EmployeeSearchAdvanced]scriptIds = custentity74,custentity66
  • - To read custom segment data, use the following format to add the custom segment fields:
    • [<Object Name>] custSegScriptIds=custseg1: select,custseg2:multiselect,custseg3:select....
    Where the value of scriptId is the ID field in the NetSuite user interface for each custom segment field.
    For example, [Employee] custSegScriptIds=custentity_cseg1: select,custentity_csegcs_multsel:multiselect
  • - To read data from child record custom segments, use the following format to add the child custom segment fields:
    • [<Object Name>] custSegScriptIds =custseg1:select,custseg2: multiselect,custseg3:select....
    For example, [JournalEntry] custSegScriptIds =custbody_cseg1:select,custbody_cseg2:select, custbody_cseg3:select [JournalEntryLineList] custSegScriptIds =custcol_cseg1:select,custcol_cseg2:select, custcol_cseg3:select
Record Filter Fields
Map NetSuite record field names with related NetSuite search record field names so that you can use the fields in filters.
List the record field names and related SearchBasic field names, as follows:
[<record 1>] <record field name> =<SearchBasic field name><record field name2> =<SearchBasic field name2> [<record 2>] <record field name> =<SearchBasic field name><record field name2> =<SearchBasic field name2><record field name3> =<SearchBasic field name3>
For example, [Account] acctName=nameaddr1=address1
To read transactional data from NetSuite when memorized transaction is enabled in the NetSuite account, add the record field names and related SearchBasic field name in the following format:
[<record 1>] <record field name> =<SearchBasic field name> For example: [JournalEntry] reversalEntry=memorized
Saved Search Record Fields
Create a separate section for each NetSuite saved search record for which you want to add a saved search field, identified by a unique scriptId.
  • - Add the search fields using the following format:
    • <savedSearchId1>=<savedSearchDeclaredField1Name>, <savedSearchDeclaredField2Name>,<savedSearchCustomFieldScriptId1>, <savedSearchCustomFieldScriptId2>,<StandardJoin>|<FieldName1>, customSearchJoin|<scriptID1>
    For example, 1000=phone,email,custentity78,custentity65, userJoin|email,customSearchJoin|custrecord1424
  • - To read custom segment data, use the following format to add the search custom segment fields:
    • [savedSearchId1]=custseg1:select, custseg2:multiselect, custseg3:select...
    For example, [741]=custseg1:select,custentity_cseg1:select, custentity_csegcs_multsel:multiselect
  • - To override the metadata of a task, which is created to read custom record standard fields with custom join, use the following format to add the search custom record standard fields:
    • <savedSearchId1>=CustomSearchJoin| <scriptId of custom record>__<standard field name>
    For example, 356=CustomSearchJoin|uss_custom_code__internalId
