Excel Power Query faces significant challenges with NetSuite’s OAuth 2.0 authentication requirements, often failing due to token management complexity and NetSuite’s security model.
Here’s how to eliminate these authentication barriers through automated token handling that prevents the common authentication failures that plague Power Query connections.
Skip Power Query authentication complexity using Coefficient
Coefficient eliminates authentication barriers through automated token handling for NetSuite . Automated OAuth 2.0 provides complete authentication handling after one-time admin setup with seamless 7-day token renewal.
How to make it work
Step 1. Complete automated OAuth 2.0 setup.
Your NetSuite admin configures OAuth settings once. The system handles all authentication complexity automatically, eliminating Power Query’s insufficient authentication capabilities.
Step 2. Deploy pre-built RESTlet scripts.
Managed deployment and version control eliminates the need for custom RESTlet script development that Power Query requires. No complex parameter configuration needed.
Step 3. Configure secure domain email authentication.
Use company domain emails only for secure authentication with proper role-based permissions. SuiteAnalytics Workbook and REST Web Services access managed automatically.
Step 4. Access full NetSuite data without limitations.
Unlike Power Query’s restricted endpoint access, get full API access to all NetSuite records, lists, saved searches, and reports with automatic token refresh.
Focus on data analysis, not authentication
This eliminates the common “authentication failed” errors that plague Power Query NetSuite connections while providing broader data access capabilities. Get started with reliable NetSuite authentication for Excel.
