What does this mean: Enable OAuth 2.0 to allow (after user authorization) integrations to access REST web services and RESTlets on your users' behalf. NetSuite as OIDC Provider

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

Enabling OAuth 2.0 in NetSuite allows integrations to access REST web services and RESTlets on behalf of your users, after they have authorized it. This is particularly useful for creating secure, authenticated connections between NetSuite and other applications or services. OAuth 2.0 is a protocol that allows a user to grant limited access to their resources on one site, to another site, without having to expose their credentials. In the context of NetSuite, this means that a user can grant an integration access to their NetSuite data (via REST web services or RESTlets) without having to provide their NetSuite login credentials to that integration. NetSuite as an OIDC Provider means that NetSuite can provide identity information about a user that is authenticated by NetSuite to other applications. OIDC stands for OpenID Connect, which is a simple identity layer on top of the OAuth 2.0 protocol. It allows clients to verify the identity of the end-user based on the authentication performed by an authorization server, as well as to obtain basic profile information about the end-user. In the context of server-side scripts, OAuth 2.0 can be used to connect from NetSuite to another REST API without user intervention. This typically involves three parts: getting the access token, using the access token, and optionally refreshing the access token. When it comes to authenticating using an OAuth integration to a restlet, it's important to ensure that the integration record is configured correctly and that the RESTlet audience includes the appropriate role.
