I know how to do it via NetSuite UI and the HelpCenter article _/app/help/helpcenter.nl?fid=section_1532218021.html_ makes it seem like you can do it via SDF as well, but I cannot seem to find a "GetCustomRecordWithInstances" command exposed by the CLI or IDE plugins.

05/14/2019, 3:53 PMI'd suggest the command name have import in it since that's what's used to pull down other definitions?

05/14/2019, 3:55 PMI think it is clear enough now that I have had some coffee 🙂
especially in Eclipse help text it additionally does say "...from Account"
