Deploying a SuiteCloud Project to Your NetSuite Account with SuiteCloud IDE Plug-in for WebStorm

When you create a SuiteCloud project, a deploy file is automatically generated.

By default, the file is set up to deploy all supported files in the FileCabinet folder and all SDF custom objects in the Objects folder.

For more information, see SuiteCloud Project Deployment Preparation.

To deploy a SuiteCloud project to your NetSuite account:

In WebStorm, create or select your SuiteCloud project.

For more information, see Creating an Account Customization Project in SuiteCloud IDE Plug-in for WebStorm or Creating a SuiteApp Project in SuiteCloud IDE Plug-in for WebStorm.

Important:
Account customization projects can't be uninstalled from your account after deployment. You'll need to manually delete any components you don't want.
Ensure that your project references all the required dependencies.

For more information, see Defining Feature Dependencies in SuiteCloud IDE Plug-in for WebStorm, Defining Dependencies on SDF Custom Objects in a SuiteApp and Bundle Objects with SuiteCloud IDE Plug-in for WebStorm, and Defining Account Component Dependencies from an Account Customization Project in SuiteCloud IDE Plug-in for WebStorm.
Ensure that your deploy file references all of the NetSuite components you want to deploy.

For more information, see SuiteCloud Project Deployment Preparation.
Right-click your SuiteCloud project in the Project window.
Select one of the following:
- NetSuite > Deploy
- NetSuite > Deploy to Account
If you chose to deploy to an account, pick the right account and role, then click Deploy.
If you're deploying an account customization project, you can change the selection for Action on Account-Specific Values. For more information, see Account-Specific Values Validation in SuiteCloud Projects.
If you're deploying a SuiteApp project, you can enable or disable the installation preferences by checking or clearing the Apply Installation Preferences box.

For more information, see Installation Preferences in the SuiteApp of SuiteCloud Project.
If you're deploying to a NetSuite production account, you might see a notification window. Confirm you want to deploy to the production account to continue.

SDF validates and deploys the SuiteCloud project to your NetSuite account. The installation log shows up in the SuiteCloud IDE tool window.

Example
