Connection configuration in Nango

Netsuite requires a user specific account id to run OAuth.

You should request this from the user and pass it to Nango in the nango.auth() call:

nango.auth('netsuite', '<CONNECTION-ID>', {params: {accountId: '<netsuite-account-id>'}});

For more details see the docs here.

​

API gotchas

• There doesn’t seem to be a way to create a Netsuite account without scheduling a call.
• The netsuite integration which uses OAuth 2.0 has a refresh token that has a fixed expiration of 7 days. After which point the refresh token becomes invalid and a new access token must be obtained by making users go through the authorization code flow again. To avoid this we recommend using the machine to machine flow which is called the netsuite-tba integration in Nango

Admin Setup for netsuite-tba

• Ensure you have admin privileges and login to your Netsuite account and navigate to Setup > Company > Enable Features
• Under the “SuiteTalk” header make sure the SOAP WEB SERVICES and REST WEB SERVICES checkboxes are checked

• Under the “Manage Authentication” header make sure the TOKEN-BASED AUTHENTICATION checkbox is checked

• Click the save button
• Navigate to Setup > Integration > Manage Integrations > New
• Set the desired name of this integration
• Enable TOKEN-BASED AUTHENTICATION and disable TBA: AUTHORIZATION FLOW and AUTHORIZATION CODE GRANT

• Click the save button
• The client credentials will now be displayed and be sure to copy the Consumer Key, Client ID, Consumer Secret, and Client Secret
• Navigate to the homepage by clicking the home icon

• In Nango create a new integration using the netsuite-tba and leave the “Client Id” and “Client Secret” values empty.
• Create a new connection and for the “OAuth Client Id Override” value paste in the value you received from Netsuite called “Client ID” and for the “OAuth Client Secret” value paste in the value you received from Netsuite called “Client Secret”. For “Token ID” & “Token Secret” paste in the values you received from Netsuite from the access token step. The account ID value can be found from your Netsuite URL instance
• If done programmatically using the Nango frontend sdk:

nango.auth('netsuite-tba', connectionId, {
  params: { accountId: ACCOUNT_ID },
  credentials: {
    token_id: TOKEN_ID,
    token_secret: TOKEN_SECRET,
    oauth_client_id_override: CLIENT_ID,
    oauth_client_secret_override: CLIENT_SECRET,
  }
})
