Obtaining the API Credentials

Hevo uses the Service Host and Port, and Account ID to establish a connection with the SuiteAnalytics Connect service, which enables Hevo to ingest data from NetSuite. To authenticate Hevo on your NetSuite account, various credentials are required, including the Consumer Key and Secret, the Data Warehouse Integrator Role ID, and the Token ID and Secret.

Note: You must log in as an Admin user to perform these steps.
