Authentication


PropertyDescription
AuthSchemeThe type of authentication to use when connecting to NetSuite.
AccountIdThe company account your username is associated with on NetSuite.
RoleIdThe RoleId is the InternalId of the role that will be used to log in to NetSuite. Leave empty to use the user's default role.
UserThe user of the NetSuite account used to authenticate.
PasswordThe password of the NetSuite user used to authenticate.
VersionThe version of the NetSuite API in usage. Defaults to 2022_2.
IncludeChildTablesA boolean indicating if child tables should be displayed.
NetsuiteMetadataFolderA path to a directory to download metadata files from NetSuite. Set this for best performance.

OAuth


PropertyDescription
InitiateOAuthSpecifies the process for obtaining or refreshing the OAuth access token, which maintains user access while an authenticated, authorized user is working.
OAuthVersionThe version of OAuth being used.
OAuthClientIdSpecifies the client Id that was assigned the custom OAuth application was created. (Also known as the consumer key.) This ID registers the custom application with the OAuth authorization server.
OAuthClientSecretSpecifies the client secret that was assigned when the custom OAuth application was created. (Also known as the consumer secret ). This secret registers the custom application with the OAuth authorization server.
OAuthAccessTokenA token received after authentication to the OAuth network, granting the user access. The access token is used in place of the user's login ID and password, which stay on the server.
OAuthAccessTokenSecretThe OAuth access token secret for connecting using OAuth.
OAuthSettingsLocationSpecifies the location of the settings file where OAuth values are saved. Storing OAuth settings in a central location avoids the need for users to enter OAuth connection properties manually each time they log in. It also enables credentials to be shared across connections or processes.
CallbackURLThe URL users return to after authenticating to NetSuite via OAuth.
ScopeSpecify scope to obtain the initial access and refresh token with OAuth 2.0.
OAuthVerifierSpecifies a verifier code returned from the OAuthAuthorizationURL . Used when authenticating to OAuth on a headless server, where a browser can't be launched. Requires both OAuthSettingsLocation and OAuthVerifier to be set.
AuthTokenThe authentication token used to request and obtain the OAuth Access Token.
AuthKeyThe authentication secret used to request and obtain the OAuth Access Token.
OAuthRefreshTokenGets and refreshes the currently-active OAuth Access Token.
OAuthExpiresInSpecifies the duration in seconds, of an OAuth Access Token's lifetime. The token can be reissued to keep access alive as long as the user keeps working.
OAuthTokenTimestampDisplays a Unix epoch timestamp in milliseconds that shows how long ago the current Access Token was created.

JWT OAuth


PropertyDescription
OAuthJWTCertThe JWT Certificate store.
OAuthJWTCertTypeThe type of key store containing the JWT Certificate.
OAuthJWTCertPasswordThe password for the OAuth JWT certificate used to access a certificate store that requires a password. If the certificate store does not require a password, leave this property blank.
OAuthJWTEncryptionKeyThe key used used for HMAC signatures with JWT tokens.
OAuthJWTCertSubjectThe subject of the OAuth JWT certificate used to locate a matching certificate in the store. Supports partial matches and the wildcard '*' to select the first certificate.
OAuthJWTIssuerThe issuer of the Java Web Token.
JWTScopeThe scope of the JWT, which specifies the level of access the token grants to NetSuite data.
OAuthJWTEncryptionThe encryption algorithm to be used in JWT authentication.
OAuthJWTHeadersA collection of extra headers to include in the JWT.
OAuthJWTValidityTimeHow long the JWT should remain valid, in seconds.

Logging


PropertyDescription

LogModulesSpecifies the core modules to include in the log file. Use a semicolon-separated list of module names. By default, all modules are logged.
MaxLogFileSizeSpecifies the maximum size of a single log file in bytes. For example, '10 MB'. When the file reaches the limit, the provider creates a new log file with the date and time appended to the name.
MaxLogFileCountSpecifies the maximum number of log files the provider retains. When the limit is reached, the oldest log file is deleted to make space for a new one.

Schema


PropertyDescription
LocationSpecifies the location of a directory containing schema files that define tables, views, and stored procedures. Depending on your service's requirements, this may be expressed as either an absolute path or a relative path.
BrowsableSchemasOptional setting that restricts the schemas reported to a subset of all available schemas. For example, BrowsableSchemas=SchemaA,SchemaB,SchemaC .
