09/20/2018, 1:39 PMI've created a ton of suitelets in the past and I'm experimenting with the idea of using Assistants for multi-step processes. In this particular instance, I'm letting a user upload a file, move to the next step to validate the results, and then the last step will process the file

09/20/2018, 2:20 PMAssistants have some nice functionality around navigating between steps, and getting the values that were entered at other steps. They also present a nice UI for a multi-step process.

09/21/2018, 4:43 PMhey @mattdahse is it possible to get values from Step 1 at Step 2 if 2 is an intermediary step? I'm having a lot of trouble trying to get anything at all

assistant.getSteps()[0].getValue({fieldId: 'custpage_my_field'})
