Anyone know what parameters need to be passed for GET https://demo123.suitetalk.api.netsuite.com/services/rest/record/v1/customer?q=email START_WITH barbara it's from https://docs.oracle.com/en/cloud/saas/netsuite/ns-online-help/section_1545222128.html I passed in Bearer token, and I still get Invalid login using postman

Do you recommend OAuth 2.0 or OAuth 1.0 (which is basically Token Based Authenthication TBA. I think)

tba is easier

So I shouldn't follow the documentation in the link you sent me because it's for OAuth 2.0 right? I should find one for TBA? the thing is that I was following the TBA instructions, and I got stuck on the step where I need to generate a Obtain An Unauthorized Request Token

failed login attempts go to the same place no matter the authentication method

what do you mean goes to the same place?

the login audit trail covers successful and failed login attempts

i'm not sure if I setup the filter in the login audit trail search wrong, but whenever I search, I never see the failed attempts from my postman. Would you have any ideas?

it suggests thats your attempts dont contain enough information to identify the user

okay, I already set it up. However, I am not sure how to use it in the API's

as in you dont know how to send the requests in the collection?

Yeah. I am not sure how to use the collection in the requests. However, all the requests I send, I put in the right credentials. Like Consumer_key, consumer_secret, ETC.

you wouldnt if you have all the tokens already

Okay thanks for that. I will check it out. Thank you so much btw for assisting me with this.

anything in the login audit trail

No, there doesn't look like there is anything. Just to confirm, I set the DATE as "within today"

im usually lazier than that

Yeah, there isn't anything in the login audit trail search, besides myself logging in, successfully

which environmental values did you fill in

just to confirm, this is where I choose to select which environment I want, and that's all I have to do? I just click the dropdown, select the right environment, and it'll automatically apply to all requests I do?

it looks like you have a duplicate, so i would delete the duplicate

Account_id: i got from being logged in, and looking at URL Consumer_key, i got that from integration record consumer_secret: got that from integration record token_id: i got from when I created the token token_secret: same thing from creating token company_url: I went into company information to find that rest_services: i left it the way it is

url isnt good enough for account id

oh

oh wooow

Regenerating a Consumer Key and Secret is next

okay, so basically, i'll just reset credentials, and copy that into the environment

okay. I will do those both right now, and store the new credentials into the environment

follow the full instructions for the login audit trail

Hello, I am trying to find the login audit trail details. When I just do a regular search, there is no details tab. only these:

Did you use User Access Token – Create a TBA Token to create the token?

wooooooooow. i cannot believe this. In the documentation you sent me, i've seen that before. But I couldn't find "In the settings portlet, click the manage access token link" so i've used the search bar and searched "manage token" and i used that page to create the token. But now, I found the manage access token link from settings portlet, and i created a new token, and that token credentials and secret works now.

Access Token Management – Create and Assign a TBA Token is for assigning tokens to other users

wooooow. that's crazy

user access token is different in that it assigns the token to the current user/role, including administrator

So, how would I go about using this say an API? Like lets say I want to make an API, and if someone calls the API, it just returns all the customers. Should I create a process.env, and in it will be the credentials? The thing is that the token is under my name.

assuming you didnt choose the wrong employee or role, you want to make sure that you Set Up Token-based Authentication Roles with the correct permissions

Yeah, so I would just make it "log in using access tokens" and that's it

you wouldnt really want to make a public api using any of the integration methods

Oh. well, i don't know if you would consider it public. But like only employees will use the API.

all requests will be made using your login and role

Ah I see. So, how would you go about making an API? Like lets say you're making a website, and you want to display all the current employees on the website. What method would you use?

depends on the website

Lets say it's a website for only the employees to look at. So not just anybody will visit the website

but if its a self hosted website, then you would be using the server hosting the website to make the api requests

Right, so it'll have to be the client makes an API request to a server. then the server makes the API request to netsuite

depends on how fancy the website is

Right, that makes sense. I wouldn't be having the credentials of netsuite being passed into the frontend client code. so what do you mean by "fancy" for website

there are lots of solutions for generating dynamic content on websites

Thank you so much for your help. You told me so many things that aren't said in the docs. Like how would I know the importance of setting up the postman environment. I would've followed the other step. and also, the tokens and the account_id is different
