NetSuite - connect to Source Medium

Follow this integration guide to connect your NetSuite data to Source Medium.

Requirements

• Administrator access for NetSuite

If you do not have Admin access, share this article with your Admin.

Steps

1. Whitelist Source Medium's IP addresses
1. Note: This step is required only if IP address rules (Setup > Company > Enable Features > Company > Access) are enabled for your NetSuite account. Otherwise, skip to Step 2
2. Sign into your NetSuite account as an administrator
3. In your NetSuite account, click Setup > Company > Company Information
4. In the Allowed IP addresses field, add a comma-delimited list of the Source Medium IP addresses:

52.23.137.21/32,52.204.223.208/32,52.204.228.32/32,52.204.230.227/32

5. Note: Make sure you don’t overwrite or change any existing IP addresses in this field - doing so could cause access issues for you and other NetSuite users in your account

f. Click Save

2. Configure Web Services and authentication settings
1. Enable Web Services
1. In this step, you’ll enable Web Services for your NetSuite account. This is required to use NetSuite’s SuiteTalk API, which is what we will use to extract data
2. Sign into your NetSuite account as an administrator, if you aren’t already signed in
3. Using the global search, type page: enable and click the Page: Enable Features result. For example:


iv. On the Enable Features page, click the SuiteCloud subtab

v. Locate the SuiteTalk (Web Services) section

vi. Check the Web Services box

2. Enable token-based authentication
1. Next, you’ll enable token-based authentication for your NetSuite account. This is required to generate tokens and authenticate to the SuiteTalk API
2. On the Enable Features page, locate the Manage Authentication section. This should be after the SuiteTalk section
3. Check the Token-based Authentication box. Your settings should look like this when finished:

4. Scroll to the bottom of the page and click Save
3. Create an integration record for Source Medium
1. Next, you’ll create an integration record for Source Medium. This will uniquely identify Source Medium in your NetSuite account
2. Using the global search, type page: integrations and click the Page: Manage Integrations result
3. On the Integrations page, click the New button
4. On the New Integration page, fill in the following fields: 1. Name: Enter a name for the integration. For example: Source Medium 2. State: Select Enabled
5. In the Authentication tab, select the Token-based Authentication option
6. Click the Save button. The confirmation page will display a Consumer key/secret section
7. Copy the Consumer Key and Secret somewhere handy. You’ll need these credentials to complete the setup in Source Medium.
4. Create a Source Medium NetSuite role and configure permissions

We recommend that you create a Source Medium-specific role and user for us. We suggest this to ensure that we don’t encounter issues with replication due to NetSuite’s API limitations.

Currently, a single NetSuite user is allowed to only have a single open API session at a time. If the user connected to Source Medium has another connection elsewhere, replication problems will arise.

1. Create a Source Medium NetSuite role
1. Using the global search, type page: new role and click the Page: New Role result
2. On the Role page, enter a name for the role in the Name field. For example: Source Medium
3. In the Authentication section, check the Web Services Only Role box
2. Configure role permissions
1. Next, you’ll grant permissions to the role. In the tabs below, you’ll find the following:
• Adding permissions - Step-by-step instructions for adding permissions to the role on the Create Role page.
• Required permissions - The minimum permissions required to successfully connect Source Medium to NetSuite.
• These permissions are the minimum required to successfully connect.
• Object permissions - The permissions required to access and replicate data for specific objects in NetSuite. We recommend granting only the permissions required for the objects you want to replicate.
