SuiteScript File Upload

Uploading Files

SuiteScript file upload uses N/file for File Cabinet storage.

Introduction to SuiteScript File Upload

SuiteScript allows you to interact with the NetSuite File Cabinet using the N/file module. This is useful for uploading, downloading, and managing files programmatically. In this guide, we will focus on how to upload a file to the File Cabinet using SuiteScript.

Setting Up the N/file Module

Before you can upload a file, ensure you have included the N/file module in your script. This module provides the necessary methods for handling files in the File Cabinet.

Creating a File Object

To upload a file, you first need to create a file object using the file.create method. You will need to specify the file's name, type, and content.

Saving the File to the File Cabinet

After creating the file object, you can save it to the File Cabinet using the fileObj.save() method. This will return the internal ID of the newly created file, which can be used for future references.

Error Handling and Validation

It's important to handle errors and validate the data before uploading. You should check for file size limits, valid file types, and ensure the folder ID is correct.

Conclusion

Uploading files to the NetSuite File Cabinet using SuiteScript is a straightforward process with the N/file module. By following the steps outlined above, you can easily manage files within your SuiteScript applications. Remember to handle errors and validate file attributes to ensure smooth operation.
