I'm eager to try some of this out. I'm attempting to use delete.js with netsuite_toolkit.js as a library file, submitting this (or similar with different record types) as my post data: [{'record_type' : 'inventoryadjustment', 'internalid' : 7739344}].

I keep getting ReferenceError: "exports" is not defined. (netsuite_toolkit.js#500).

Any advice would be great!

Thanks

I have deployed rest_suite but am unable to use the upsert request. I am trying to update the memo field on a purchase order. Based on the README I have built the following cURL request:

curl -H "Authorization: NLAuth nlauth_account=12345,[email protected],nlauth_signature=mys3cr3tpass,nlauth_role=123" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '[{"internalid": "12345", "record_type": "purchaseorder", "literal_fields": {"memo": "test"}}]' https://rest.netsuite.com/app/site/hosting/restlet.nl\?script\=100\&deploy\=1

This fails to make any change to the purchase order record. However, the script appears to return a successful response:

{
    "params": [
        {
            "internalid": "12345",
            "literal_fields": {
                "memo": "test"
            },
            "record_type": "purchaseorder"
        }
    ],
    "success": true
}

If I change the internal ID and record type to nonexistent gibberish, I still get the same success message.

Is there something wrong with the format of the data I am posting, or is the upsert script somehow broken?

We need to tell folks how to get this up and running on their NetSuite instances.

Hello,

I have gotten the Saved Search to work but after several days I haven't been able to successfully upload params for a Custom Search. The puzzling part is the arrays of Search filters and columns. Can someone post a json example to return a Search?

I have tried several versions, here is what I have been sending:

{
"record_type": "item",
"lower_bound": "0",
"batch_size": "100",
"searchFilters": [
{
"name":"department" ,
"operator":"is",
"value":"my : department"
}
],
"searchColumns": [
"Name",
"Description"
]
}

Here is a small sample of what is returned:

"Result: {"params":{"record_type":"item","batch_size":"100","lower_bound":"0"},"result":[{"id":"7","recordtype":"inventoryitem","columns":{"internalid":{"name":"7","internalid":"7"}}},{"id":"8","recordtype":"inventoryitem","columns":{"internalid":{"name":"8","internalid":"8"}}},{"id":"10","recordtype":"inventoryitem","columns":{"internalid":{"name":"10","internalid":"10"}}},

It seems to pick up the first 3 params but then ignores the rest.

Thanks

So in case you didnt know , Netsuite have cracked down on this connection method's ability to have up to 50 concurrent connections at one time, and for example ours is dropping down to 5 total for all methods combined. My work around for this has been to install a message queue with 5 workers and have all calls via this api routed via the queue.

The function to instantiate a new record in NS...where did you get this from? This is not in Netsuite API. What is the intention here..am I missing something?

NetsuiteToolkit.initializeRecord = function(record_type) {
return nlapiInitializeRecord(record_type);
}

My testing code is just:

var options = {
uri:'https://rest.na1.netsuite.com/app/site/hosting/restlet.nl?script=293&deploy=1',
method: 'POST',
headers: headers,
json:{
'record_type': 'salesorder'
}
};

request(options, function(error, res, body) {
res.setEncoding('utf8');
console.log(prettyjson.render(body));

}).end();

Netsuite response:

params:
record_type: salesorder
result: null
exception:
message: "nlapiInitializeRecord" is not defined.
trace: Cannot find function getStackTrace in object ReferenceError: "nlapiInitializeRecord" is not defined..
success: false

Can anyone provide an example request for the Saved Search request? I have not been able to get it working. Based on the request structure provided in the readme, I am trying the following curl request to receive the results of the saved search of 321 (ie, the search is available at https://system.netsuite.com/app/common/search/searchresults.nl?searchid=321):

curl -H "Authorization: NLAuth nlauth_account=12345678,[email protected],nlauth_signature=s3cr3t,nlauth_role=123" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '[{"search_id": "321", "record_type": "search", "lower_bound": "0", "batch_size": "20"}]' https://rest.netsuite.com/app/site/hosting/restlet.nl\?script\=101\&deploy\=1 | python -m json.tool

This results in the following error:

{
    "params": {},
    "result": {
        "message": "The record type [UNDEFINED] is invalid.",
        "trace": [
            "restletwrapper(null$lib:4)"
        ]
    },
    "success": true
}

I built this request based on the readme and my successful curl requests for the Load end-point. For instance, this results in a successful request to load a vendor with ID 47434:

curl -H "Authorization: NLAuth nlauth_account=12345678,[email protected],nlauth_signature=s3cr3t,nlauth_role=123" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '[{"internalid": "47434", "record_type": "vendor"}]' https://rest.netsuite.com/app/site/hosting/restlet.nl\?script\=100\&deploy\=1 | python -m json.tool

What should the proper JSON request look like for the saved search?

A user was kind enough to add this additional documentation to our wiki: https://github.com/acumenbrands/netsuite-rest-client/wiki/Beginner-Documentation

We should pull the relevant bits out and move them over here. Also, it might be worth moving some of the stuff in the README to the wiki.

Beyond that, should we braindump some of our NetSuite lore into the wiki as well? @JamesChristie you're quite the font of knowledge. Things like the arbitrary point system and the way records are handled would be handy to have available.

Quite a few pull requests and issues lodged but no reply. Good to still be able to work on it all together in github... maybe we need a new primary fork to take over...

Is it possible to access subrecords for an item?

I am successfully able to use the load request to return an Inventory Item record, but the response does not include any inventory levels or locations. I believe this is because the inventory details are considered subrecords. How can I get all the subrecords associated with the Inventory Item?

Would rest_suite suffice to post a CashSale order (create customer, add line items, card details) getting NetSuite to process transaction and create a record of the order for shipping?
Or does one need to use the SOAP based API to access advanced functionality.

http://www.netsuite.com/help/helpcenter/en_US/srbrowser/Browser2016_2/schema/record/cashsale.html?mode=package

If rest_suite is indeed capable enough for the job a bit of example code to get us started would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

I'm just starting to learn the complexity of NetSuite's domain model. We're struggling to upsert a complex object (in our case, a PurchaseOrder) and could use some real examples of inserting a complex object including sublists with subrecords.

You do have some abstract documentation on the request structure but it's difficult for us to map that onto a real world example.

Hello, I had an issue where I couldn't move past this line:
record.setLineItemValue(sublist_name, index, field_name, value);

By looking at the SuiteScript API doc, I noticed that the order of the parameters is wrong (field_name is before index). Here's the function definition:

/**

• Set the value of a sublist field.
  *
• @param {string} group sublist name
• @param {string} name sublist field name
• @param {int} line line number (1-based)
• @param {string} value sublist field value
  *
• @method
• @memberof nlobjRecord
  *
• @SInCE 2008.1
  */
  nlobjRecord.prototype.setLineItemValue = function( group, name, line, value ) { ; }

One big hassle to figuring out custom searches is figuring out the names and structure of the json criteria.

Is there a way to have the filters and columns returned with "saved searches" to get how exactly how Netsuite wants to expects the format?

It returns the ones you send during an exception error using "search" but it would be nice to be able to create a search in Netsuite then pull it using "Saved search" to see the filter and column it used. Would save a bunch of trial and error.

Thanks

A skeleton exists in the README, but it needs to be fleshed out. Several things could be stuffed in there beyond what we see already.

Currently Initialize is the only function that does not return its response as an array. In order to continue sane development with wyatt_netsuite, this should be changed.

This is probably due to a lack of understanding of the proper way to document these via JSDoc, but the functions are all documented multiple times on the global namespace doc page.

It seems that the operator isn't getting passed in when create the search filter object:

https://github.com/acumenbrands/rest_suite/blob/master/lib/netsuite_toolkit.js#L177-L179

Receiving this error:

"result" : {
    "params" : null,
    "result" : null,
    "success" : false,
    "exception" : {
      "trace" : [
        "restletwrapper(null$lib:4)"
      ],
      "message" : "An nlobjSearchFilter contains an invalid operator, or is not in proper syntax: internalidnumber."
    }
  },

Even if I pass the operator in to seemingly properly create the filter, it fails.

For some context, i'm using the following request body:

{
  "record_type": "customer",
  "search_filters": [
    {
      "name": "email",
      "operator": "is",
      "value": "[email protected]"
    }
  ]
}

How do I use rest_suite with a Rails app? Am I supposed to use the netsuite-rest-client Ruby API in my Rails app talking to the JS in this project?
