Acquire NetSuite SuiteAnalytics credentials

You need to create an app integration in Netsuite.

1. Follow the Oracle documentation here: Create Integration Records for Applications to Use OAuth 2.0.

   • Check the boxes for Client Credentials (Machine to Machine Grant) and SuiteAnalytics Connect.

2. Copy the Client ID and Client Secret at the end of this process. You won't have another opportunity to copy the secret.

3. Create a user role and add the required OAuth access to that role, following the process here: Getting Started with OAuth 2.0.
4. Add the following permissions to your user: Log in Using OAuth 2.0 Access Tokens and OAuth 2.0 Authorized Applications Management.

5. Generate and upload a certification to NetSuite, following the Oracle documentation here: Creating a Mapping for the Client Credentials Flow.

   • From the example certificate generation commands given in that document, use the RSA - PSS command.
   • When you click Save in the certificate mapping dialog, note down the certificate ID as you will need this later.
