DOCUMENTATION STEPS

Connecting NetSuite to Postman to pull customer data involves several steps, including setting up an integration record in NetSuite, configuring Postman with the necessary authentication details, and making a request to the NetSuite REST API.

Here’s a basic step-by-step guide:

📖 Step 1: Set Up an Integration Record in NetSuite
Log in to your NetSuite account.
Navigate to Setup – Integrations – Manage Integrations – New.
Enter a Name for your integration, e.g., “Postman Integration”.
Ensure the State is set to Enabled.
Note down the Consumer Key and Consumer Secret provided; you’ll need these later.
Save the integration record.

📖 Step 2: Create a Role and User for API Access
Navigate to Setup – Users/Roles – Manage Roles – New.
Create a role with permissions that include Web Services and Access Token Management.
Assign this role to a user or create a new user specifically for API access.

📖 Step 3: Generate an Access Token
Log in as the user assigned to the API role.
Navigate to Setup – Users/Roles – Access Tokens – New.
Select the application you created in Step 1, the user, and the role, then click Save.
Note down the Token ID and Token Secret.

📖 Step 4: Configure Postman
Open Postman and create a new request.
Set the request type to GET.
Enter the URL for the NetSuite REST API endpoint to pull customer data. The format is usually:
https://{account_id}.suitetalk.api.netsuite.com/services/rest/record/v1/customer

Replace {account_id} with your actual NetSuite account ID, often referred to as the portal number.

📖 Step 5: Set Up Authentication in Postman
In the Postman request, go to the Authorization tab.
Select Type as OAuth 1.0.
Enter the following details from your NetSuite integration and user tokens:
Consumer Key: From Step 1
Consumer Secret: From Step 1
Token: From Step 3 (Token ID)
Token Secret: From Step 3 (Token Secret)
Signature Method: HMAC-SHA256
Timestamp: Leave as is (Postman generates this automatically)
Nonce: Leave as is (Postman generates this automatically)
Version: 1.0
Realm: Your NetSuite account ID
Ensure the Add params to header option is checked.

📖 Step 6: Send the Request
Click Send to make the request to NetSuite.
If everything is set up correctly, you should receive a JSON response with customer data from NetSuite.
Dummy Keys and Values
Consumer Key: YourConsumerKey
Consumer Secret: YourConsumerSecret
Token ID: YourTokenID
Token Secret: YourTokenSecret
NetSuite Account ID/Portal Number: 123456
Troubleshooting
Ensure your NetSuite role has the necessary permissions.
Double-check the OAuth settings in Postman.
Verify that the account ID and endpoint URL are correct.
