Hey, I'm totally new to netsuite I don't even have...
# general

Hey, I'm totally new to netsuite I don't even have idea how to use its interface. I've a account which has admin access and there is a live website deployed on it I want to find all the endpoints created on for that website can anyone help me, where I can find those? Or how I can get most out of NetSuite interface?
b
netsuite had different interfaces which makes asking for endpoints an unusual question
website wise, there are generally multiple options available
built in options that come from NetSuite's SuiteCommerce offerings may not actually use an endpoint you can access with your mobile app
if its an external website outside of NetSuite, then there are multiple integration options that could have been used
options include web services like SuiteTalk SOAP, scripting options like SuiteScript RESTlets, or database access through SuiteAnalytics Connect.
s
I've tried hitting some API's on postman and I get proper response for them but for some API's I'm getting permission error? Any idea about this?
b
postman suggests a restlet or the mostly beta SuiteTalk REST webservice
s
Yes I think Restlets have been used, so any idea how I can see needful information from netsuite UI
b
share the url you are using
s
I'm directly using an netsuite sandbox account given by client not referring any url
b
postman makes http requests to a server
the server is usually identified by a url
s
Yes right
b
if you have been trying anything with postman, you should have had to use a url at some point
s
Client has web application which is live and deployed on netsuite
Ok you're talking about the endpoint url
b
if you have been using postman, i want what you entered in the request url
s
{{REST_SERVICES}}/record/v1/metadata-catalog/customer
b
thats the mostly beta SuiteTalk REST web service
s
yes this is {{rest_service}}
b
id be surprised if your website was using that
s
Not sure but the postman collection has this url in it
message has been deleted
This is how my dashboard looks like
Until now I've understood that the client has implemented SuiteCommerce in his product
b
as i said, you keep on switching between different technologies
its unlikely that all are are being used
if all are being used, you are in for a huge learning curve
s
As I've seen in code at many places many of things have been imported from SC
b
suitecommerce websites and mobile applications do not share the same tools
s
But they might be using same endpoints for accessing the database isn't it?
b
no
s
Ooh this is something new I didn't knew before, Is there any way I can get something out of the dashboard I shown you, can I get what is implemented for mobile applications or can I see database through this account?
b
a user logged into a webstore and a user from an application are very different authentication wise
s
I don't have Idea what kind of login this is? Can you tell me?
b
your dashboard means nothing
i can tell from your recent file list that you have files that look related to SuiteCommerce and SuiteScript
s
Yes
b
again, my advice is to get information from your client about their website
s
Like what all information is needed?
b
if its suitecommerce related, then there isnt anything there for you to reuse for a mobile application
s
ok
b
if its an external website, then they might have an integration that uses things like SuiteTalk, SuiteScript, or SuiteAnalytics Connect
s
What do you follow for mobile applications the?
then*
?
b
i would be mildly impressed if that was a suitecommerce advanced website
s
why isn't it?
b
much more modern than i would expect it to be
s
Ooh ok, so the website is ready the client has the app but the app developer doesn't have the endpoints to integrate in the app so I need to find out the endpoints from whatever is given to me. I need help
b
if the app is built already, then ask the developer what technology they used to build the app
s
ok, isn't it created in android or ios?
b
there are many different ways to communicate with netsuite
s
Its too vast than I thought
So with this what I've with me as of now, I can't move forward?
b
im personally confused, i thought you wanted to build a mobile app
but you say your client already has it
s
Maybe the app screens are ready but have not integrated API's
b
again, my advice is to find out how the website was built and how it is integrated with netsuite
in the unlikley case its suitecommerce, then there is nothing to reuse and you can pick whatever SuiteCloud Platform Customization you think will work
s
Ok, as you advised I will get more information from the client and look into it
Thank you so much for all the information you've provided. All my questions must be very basic or rather weird I don't know but thanks 🙂
