Introduction:
SuiteQL, NetSuite’s SQL-based query language, provides a powerful tool for retrieving data. One lesser-known but useful feature is the customScriptId option available in the query.runSuiteQL method. This unique identifier proves valuable in identifying and resolving potential performance issues with queries.
Using customScriptId:
To leverage the customScriptId option, include a unique string value in the options parameter when invoking query.runSuiteQL. Here’s an example:
var results = query.runSuiteQL({
query: ‘SELECT customer.entityid, customer.email FROM customer WHERE customer.isperson = ?’,
params: [true],
customScriptId: ‘myCustomScriptId’
});
Benefits of customScriptId:
If a query triggers performance concerns, NetSuite support can utilize the customScriptId to quickly pinpoint and address the issue. While not mandatory, incorporating customScriptId is highly recommended, particularly for intricate queries or those anticipated to yield substantial data sets.
Conclusion:
The customScriptId option simplifies the troubleshooting of SuiteQL queries, enhancing the efficiency of NetSuite support in diagnosing and resolving performance-related challenges. Whether your queries are straightforward or intricate, considering customScriptId is a proactive step towards ensuring optimal query performance.
