Mastering url.resolveScript in SuiteScript

Introduction In NetSuite development, Suitelets and RESTlets often need to be accessed from other scripts, records, or even external systems. Hardcoding URLs is fragile because account domains, environments, and deployments can change. SuiteScript 2.x solves this problem with the url.resolveScript function, which dynamically generates the correct URL for a script deployment. This article explores how… Continue reading Mastering url.resolveScript in SuiteScript
