NetSuite

The data source for NetSuite enables users to download data from NetSuite using the SuiteAnalytics Connect Service. Leveraging the ODBC driver, this data source connector provides the same capabilities as other Keboola database data source connectors, including incremental fetching.

Prerequisites

SuiteAnalytics Connect Service must be enabled for your account. Find more information in the official documentation.

Configuration

Authorization and Credentials

First, it is necessary to set up the connection parameters in the Credentials section. The Account ID and Role ID variables correspond to your account ID and role ID. These values, along with the hostname and role, are available on the SuiteAnalytics Connect Driver Download page under Your Configuration.

You can access the SuiteAnalytics Connect Driver Download page using the Set Up Analytics Connect link in the Settings portlet when you are logged in to NetSuite. For more information, see Finding Your Settings Portlet.

Row or Table Configuration

The configuration concepts are the same as for standard SQL DB data sources.

You may select specific columns and tables to be downloaded, or switch to Advanced mode to provide a custom query. Data may be imported incrementally using the incremental fetching feature, allowing the user to retrieve only new or updated data from their NetSuite account.

Custom query notice: “Due to Oracle SQL syntax working internally with NetSuite Analytics, you should use Oracle SQL syntax when creating SuiteQL queries. Although SuiteQL supports ANSI SQL-92, there is a risk of critical performance issues, such as time outs that are not operationally remediable, that may occur if a SuiteQL is converted to SQL. This approach helps avoid the worst performance scenario, regardless of other factors.” Netsuite documentation
