Target Service, API

The driver supports all editions of NetSuite including Standard, CRM, and OneWorld.

Schema, Data Model

The driver supports both all variations of SuiteQL and the SOAP-based SuiteTalk. The driver models NetSuite entities, transactions, custom records, and lists in these APIs as bidirectional tables. Saved searches are modeled as read-only views.

Key Objects

The metadata for the tables in NetSuite are obtained during run time based on a number of predefined schemas from NetSuite and your unique NetSuite account information. Custom tables and custom fields will be listed and available to work with just like any other table. Transaction Tables may have child tables (either directly as a table or as an XML aggregate column). SavedSerches can also be used in our driver.

Operations

CData NetSuite Driver supports SELCT, INSERT, UPDATE, UPSERT, DELETE and other SQL operations. In nserting operations, you may also insert Parent and Child Records in one operation. Up/Download files can be done thorugh Store Procedures.

Authentication

Supported Authentication Schemes are Basic, Token, OAuth, and OAuthJWT. Basic authentication is not supported after API version 2020.2.
