Does anyone know if there is a method for me to get the "Access Key" from Netsuite Auth2.0.
Currently I need to login, then copy the code from the url and make a post request to token endpoint

Only step I am confused about is how can I automatically login to my admin account after I make a get request to netsuite for login, and they send me an html login form.
I understand the redirect URL and token after this.

battk
10/27/2021, 4:24 PMyou get the token once and can use it forever
battk
10/27/2021, 4:25 PMthe alternative is OAuth 2.0 Client Credentials Flow, which is so new that its documentation is still wrong

10/27/2021, 4:28 PMI see, I believe that is what I am using right now
Ken
10/27/2021, 4:28 PMI initially thought I could automatically get access key using that but I understand now
