  2. Save the configuration.

Create an Integration Role

We recommend creating a separate integration role specific to the LeanIX SMP integration. This integration role must have permissions to retrieve employees. This integration role must have the ability to login through web services. This role can then be assigned to the integration user.

  1. Navigate to Setup \User/Roles \Manage Roles \New (link)

  1. Enter role name “LeanIX SMP integration” and enable “Web services only role”

  1. Under Permissions \Transactions, Permissions Lists and Permissions \Setup, add the permissions listed in the table below
    | Sub-tab | Permission | Level | |---------|------------------------|-------| | Lists | Employees | View | | Lists | Employee Record | View | | Lists | Departments | View | | Setup | Web Services | Full | | Setup | User Access Token | Full | | Setup | View Login Audit Trail | View |
  2. Save the new role

Setup an Integration User

Once you've set up our integration role (LeanIX SMP integration), you need to assign this role to your integration user. We recommend creating a separate user for your integrations.

  1. ​Navigate to Lists \Employees \Employees \New

  1. Enter a new user name “LeanIX SMP User”

  1. Navigate to the Access tab and check off “GIVE ACCESS”
  2. Assign the newly created role (LeanIX SMP integration)

  1. Save the new user

Create an Integration Record

You need to create an integration record to represent the LeanIX SMP application connecting to NetSuite.

  1. Go to Setup \Integration \Manage Integrations \New.

  1. Add a name for this integration “LeanIX SMP”
  2. Select Enabled in the State pick list
  3. Check the Token-based Authentication checkbox on the Authentication subtab
  4. Save this integration
  5. Now that we have created an integration record, save the consumer key and consumer secret. You’ll enter this into LeanIX SMP to connect NetSuite later

Create Access Token

The next step is to create an Integration record in NetSuite and to generate the authentication information needed to allow LeanIX SMP to integrate.

  1. Go to Setup \Users/Roles \Access Tokens \New (link)

  1. Select the integration record, integration user and role we created earlier.
  2. Save the newly created access token.
  3. Save the token ID and token secret somewhere and keep it confidential - these will not be retrievable again from NetSuite. You’ll enter token ID and token secret into LeanIX SMP to connect NetSuite later.
