What our users say


"The intake layer of Datadog’s self-serve analytics platform is largely built on Airbyte.Airbyte’s ease of use and extensibility allowed any team in the company to push their data into the platform - without assistance from the data team!"


“Airbyte helped us accelerate our progress by years, compared to our competitors. We don’t need to worry about connectors and focus on creating value for our users instead of building infrastructure. That’s priceless. The time and energy saved allows us to disrupt and grow faster.”


“We chose Airbyte for its ease of use, its pricing scalability and its absence of vendor lock-in. Having a lean team makes them our top criteria. The value of being able to scale and execute at a high level by maximizing resources is immense”
1. Identify the Data: Determine which records or fields you want to move from NetSuite to Google Sheets.
2. Create a Saved Search or Report: In NetSuite, create a saved search or report that includes all the data you want to export.
3. Export Data: Use the export feature in NetSuite to export the saved search or report results to a CSV file. This can typically be done by clicking on the "Export" button and selecting CSV as the format.
1. Create a New Google Sheet: Open Google Sheets and create a new spreadsheet where you want to import your NetSuite data.
2. Set Up Import Structure: Define the structure of your Google Sheet, matching the column headers to the fields you exported from NetSuite.
1. Access Script Editor: In your Google Sheets, go to Extensions > Apps Script to open the script editor.
2. Write a Script to Import CSV Data: Create a script that will parse the CSV file and import the data into your Google Sheet. Here's a simple example of how you might write a script to import data from a CSV file:
```javascript
function importCSVFromWeb() {
var csvUrl = "URL_OF_YOUR_CSV_FILE"; // You'll need to host the CSV file online temporarily
var csvContent = UrlFetchApp.fetch(csvUrl).getContentText();
var csvData = Utilities.parseCsv(csvContent);
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSpreadsheet().getActiveSheet();
for (var i = 0; i < csvData.length; i++) {
sheet.appendRow(csvData[i]);
}
}
```
3. Save and Run the Script: After writing the script, save it and run the function to import the data into your Google Sheet.
If you need to regularly update your Google Sheets with data from NetSuite, you can automate the data retrieval process:
1. Create a RESTlet in NetSuite: Develop a RESTlet script in NetSuite using SuiteScript that will output the required data in CSV format when called.
2. Host the CSV: Have the RESTlet save the CSV file to a publicly accessible URL or use NetSuite's file cabinet to host the CSV.
3. Schedule the Script in Google Sheets: Use Google App Script's Triggers feature to run your import function at regular intervals.
- Go to the script editor.
- Click on the clock icon to open the "Current project's triggers" page.
- Click on "Add Trigger" and set it up to run your `importCSVFromWeb` function periodically.
Make sure that any data transfer between NetSuite and Google Sheets is secure:
1. Use HTTPS: Ensure that the URL where you host your CSV file is secured with HTTPS.
2. Access Control: Implement access control on the NetSuite side to ensure only authorized requests can call the RESTlet and access the CSV data.
3. Handle Sensitive Data Carefully: If your data is sensitive, consider additional encryption or anonymization techniques before transferring it.
1. Test the Entire Process: Run through the entire process from exporting data from NetSuite to importing it into Google Sheets to ensure everything works as expected.
2. Debug Any Issues: If the data isn't importing correctly, use the debugging tools in both NetSuite and Google Apps Script to troubleshoot the issue.
Document the process for future reference or for other team members to understand the workflow and maintenance procedures.
Remember, this process requires manual intervention to export and host the CSV file unless you automate the CSV generation and hosting within NetSuite. Always ensure compliance with data privacy regulations and consider the security implications of hosting and transferring your data.
FAQs
What is ETL?
ETL, an acronym for Extract, Transform, Load, is a vital data integration process. It involves extracting data from diverse sources, transforming it into a usable format, and loading it into a database, data warehouse or data lake. This process enables meaningful data analysis, enhancing business intelligence.

What is ELT?
ELT, standing for Extract, Load, Transform, is a modern take on the traditional ETL data integration process. In ELT, data is first extracted from various sources, loaded directly into a data warehouse, and then transformed. This approach enhances data processing speed, analytical flexibility and autonomy.
Difference between ETL and ELT?
ETL and ELT are critical data integration strategies with key differences. ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) transforms data before loading, ideal for structured data. In contrast, ELT (Extract, Load, Transform) loads data before transformation, perfect for processing large, diverse data sets in modern data warehouses. ELT is becoming the new standard as it offers a lot more flexibility and autonomy to data analysts.
