SuiteAnalytics Connect – Read All Permission
As of 2018.2, the SuiteAnalytics Connect – Read All permission enables users to have read-only access to NetSuite data using the Connect Service, regardless of what they can access in the NetSuite user interface. This permission applies to the NetSuite.com data source only.
Assign this permission to the role created in the previous step.

Details required to establish Netsuite2.com Data Source connection

To connect to the netsuite2.com Data Source you will again need to navigate to the SuiteAnalytics Connect service configuration page (Settings->Set Up SuiteAnalytics Connect) and get the following.

  • Account ID
  • Service Port
  • Role ID (Ensure this Role has Token Based Auth enabled, See below for more on TBA)

You will however also need to configure some other settings to get the following.

  • Consumer Key
  • Consumer Secret
  • Token ID
  • Token Secret

Follow the following steps in order to get the information above.

To set up TBA in your NetSuite account:

  • Enable the Token-based Authentication Feature. (Docs)
    TBA is a compulsory setting to access the Netsuite2.com Data Source

  • Set Up Token-based Authentication Roles. (Docs)
    The Role used to authenticate must have TBA set as an authentication method, this can be done by creating a new role or modifying an existing one

  • Assign Users to Token-based Authentication Roles. ([Docs] (https://docs.oracle.com/en/cloud/saas/netsuite/ns-online-help/bridgehead_4249025340.html))
    The User used to authenticate must have a Role with TBA authentication set to true.

  • Create Integration Records for Applications to Use TBA ([Docs] (https://docs.oracle.com/en/cloud/saas/netsuite/ns-online-help/bridgehead_4249032125.html))
    The system displays the consumer ID and consumer secret only the first time you save the integration record. In cases where an application previously used user credentials as an authentication method, you must reset the consumer ID and consumer secret. Resetting the consumer ID and client secret invalidates the previous consumer ID and client secret.

  • Create and Assign Access Token (Docs)
    For security reasons, the only time the Token ID and Token Secret values are displayed is on the confirmation page after creation. After you leave this page, these values cannot be retrieved from the system. If you lose or forget these credentials, you will need to create a new token and obtain new values.

  • Manage TBA Tokens in the NetSuite UI. (Docs)
    You can see your existing TBA Tokens through the Netsuite UI by going to Setup > Users/Roles > User Management > Access Tokens

  • If your Employee record is inactive.
  • When your role with the SuiteAnalytics Connect permission is inactive. Also, you must ensure that you meet all.
  • Connect permission considerations. See Connect Permissions.
