In a mapping, you can configure a Source transformation to represent a single NetSuite RESTlet V2 source or multiple NetSuite RESTlet V2 sources.
You can use multiple related NetSuite RESTlet V2 standard objects as sources. You can select a standard search object as the primary source. You can then add one or more sibling objects. NetSuite RESTlet V2 Connector does not support the use of child and sibling objects at the same time.
The following table describes the NetSuite source properties that you can configure in a Source transformation:
Property
Description
Connection
Name of the source connection.
Source type
Select Single Object or Multiple Objects. Select Single Object to read data from a child object. Select Multiple Objects to read data from sibling objects.
Object
Applicable for a single source. Select the source object.
Add Source Object
Applicable for multiple sources. Select the primary object.
Add Child Object
Not applicable for NetSuite RESTlet V2 Connector. You can add a child object by selecting a single standard child object.
Add Sibling Objects
Applicable for multiple sources. Select the desired sibling objects.
Filter
Filters value in a read operation. You can add conditions to filter records and reduce the number of rows that the Secure Agent reads from the source.
Sort
Not supported.
The following table describes the NetSuite source advanced properties that you can configure in a Source transformation:
Advanced Property
Description
Page Size
Page size used to get data from a source.
Minimum value is 5. Maximum value is 1000. Default value is 100.
Maximum Records to Read
Maximum number of records read from the source. For example, a value of 100 means that the Secure Agent reads 100 records from the source. The default value is 0, which means that the Secure Agent reads all records.
Maximum number of concurrent threads
Number of concurrent threads. Specify the number of concurrent threads that you want to use.
To optimize performance results with concurrent threads, your administrator might need to adjust the heap size. For example, a heap size of 512 MB for 10 threads might optimize performance results.
Default value is 4.
Tracing Level
Amount of detail that appears in the log for this transformation. You can choose terse, normal, verbose initialization, or verbose data. Default is normal.
Configuring NetSuite RESTlet V2 Sibling Objects
To read data from a NetSuite RESTlet V2 sibling object, you must select the source type as Multiple Objects. You can add one or multiple siblings.
1In the mapping, click the Source transformation, and then click the Source tab.
2Select the NetSuite RESTlet V2 connection that you want to use.
3Select the Source Type as Multiple Objects.
4In the Objects and Relationships section, click the arrow to open the Action menu and then select Add Source Object.
5Search for the primary source object that you want to add. Enter the search phrase in the following format: <objectname>_SR
6Select a source object from the list. Click OK.
7In the Objects and Relationships section, click the arrow to open the Action menu corresponding to the primary source object and then select Add Sibling Objects.
8Select one or more sibling objects from the list. Click OK.
9Configure the other transformations in the mapping.
Configuring NetSuite RESTlet V2 Child Objects
To read data from a NetSuite RESTlet V2 child object, you must select the source type as Single Object and then select the child object from the list.
Note: You cannot use the Add Child button to add child objects.
1In the mapping, click the Source transformation, and then click the Source tab.
2Select the NetSuite RESTlet V2 connection that you want to use.
3Select the Source Type as Single Object.
4Click Select.
The Select Source Object page appears.
5Enter a search phrase and click Search to search for the child object.
You can use double quotes to search for objects whose names start with the search phrase. For instance, if you enter the search phrase as "employee", the Secure Agent lists all objects whose names start with the term employee.
You can differentiate between parent and child objects based on the naming convention that the objects use. Child objects use the following naming convention: <parentobjectname>_child_<childobjectname>
For instance, the customerpayment_child_paymentevent object selected in the following image is a child object and the customerpayment object listed in the previous row is a parent object.
6Select the child object from the list and click Select.
7Configure the other transformations in the mapping.
Retry Mechanism
When the Secure Agent tries to read data from a NetSuite RESTlet V2 source object but does not receive a response, it tries to send the request again. The Secure Agent makes a maximum of 7 retry attempts to the NetSuite REST server.
The retry delay is in exponential powers of 3. For example, the 6th retry takes place after 243 seconds from the 5th retry.
