Decompressed Product Configuration RESTlet NetSuite 2025.1

Starting in NetSuite 2025.1, the introduction of a new RESTlet endpoint enables users to retrieve compressed product configurations stored on configuration records. This feature is particularly relevant for developers and administrators utilizing the NetSuite CPQ (Configure Price Quote) Configurator version 1.5.0.

What’s New

With this update, you can now access compressed product configurations programmatically through custom client and server scripts. The benefit of this is that it simplifies the process of obtaining product configurations and enhances integration possibilities with other systems or components.

How It Works

To utilize this new functionality, follow these steps:

1. Endpoint Activation: Ensure that your RESTlet endpoint is properly configured to handle requests for product configurations.
2. Parameter Inclusion: Call the endpoint with the configuration ID as a parameter. This identifies the specific configuration you wish to retrieve.
3. Decompression: The endpoint will return the compressed product configuration in string format.
4. Conversion to JSON: If necessary, convert the returned string into a JSON object for easier handling within your applications.

Example Code Snippet

Here's a basic example of how to call this endpoint using SuiteScript:

1"text-purple-400">var configID = '12345'; // Replace with your configuration ID
2"text-purple-400">var response = https.get({
3    url: '/services/rest/your_endpoint_path',
4    parameters: {
5        configId: configID
6    }
7});
8 
9"text-purple-400">if (response.code === 200) {
10    "text-purple-400">var decompressedConfig = JSON.parse(response.body);
11    console.log(decompressedConfig);
12} "text-purple-400">else {
13    console.error('Error retrieving configuration:', response);
14}

This snippet demonstrates the retrieval and conversion process, enabling developers to seamlessly integrate product configurations into their workflows.

Who This Affects

• Administrators: Configuration management becomes easier with access to product details.
