Working with the SuiteScript Records Browser

To access the SuiteScript Records Browser, use the following link:

Go to the SuiteScript Records Browser

Important:

When writing SuiteScript, you must use the IDs listed in the NetSuite Help Center. You can access IDs by viewing a NetSuite record's page source, but not all IDs in the source code are supported in SuiteScript. If you create a script that references an unsupported or undocumented ID, and NetSuite later changes the ID, your script may break.

Not all fields in the SuiteScript Records Browser can be set using SuiteScript. Some fields are read only. Check the NetSuite UI to see if a field can be set. Generally, if you can set a field in the UI, you can set it using SuiteScript. If you cannot set a field in the UI, you cannot set it using SuiteScript. However, you can still get the field's value using SuiteScript.

The SuiteScript Records Browser provides a summary of all records, fields, sublists, search joins, search filters, search columns, and record transformations that are supported in SuiteScript. Information about elements is displayed as a series of tables.

To find SuiteScript-supported records and IDs:

Open the SuiteScript Records Browser.

Only records that officially support SuiteScript are listed in the SuiteScript Records Browser.
Click the record you want to reference in SuiteScript.

You will see all IDs currently supported for the record.

The following table provides examples of objects and methods that use each type of ID:

ID Type	Object Examples	Method Examples
Field IDs	serverWidget.Field record.Field record.Record currentRecord.CurrentRecord	Record.getField(options) CurrentRecord.getField(options) Record.setValue(options) CurrentRecord.setValue(options) record.submitFields(options) search.lookupFields(options)

Search join, filter, and column IDs	search.Search search.Filter search.Column search.Result search.ResultSet	search.create(options) search.load(options) search.createFilter(options) search.createColumn(options)
