Downloading and Installing the ADO.NET Driver

Before you install or upgrade the Connect driver, ensure that you meet the installation prerequisites. For more information, see Installation Prerequisites.

The following steps provide instructions to install a SuiteAnalytics Connect ADO.NET driver. For more information about downloading the ADO.NET driver, see Getting Started with SuiteAnalytics Connect.

To install the ADO.NET driver:

  1. In the Settings portlet on your NetSuite home page, click Set Up SuiteAnalytics Connect. For more information about the Settings portlet, see Finding Your Settings Portlet.

    Note:

    If the download link is not displayed, you need to enable the Connect Service. For more information, see Enabling the Connect Service Feature.

  2. In the upper left corner, select your Windows platform.

  3. Click the Download button next to the ADO.NET Driver.

    After you downloaded the Connect driver, ensure that you install it as local administrator. If you install the driver on Windows as domain administrator, the installation process may fail.

  4. Run the NetSuiteADO.NETDrivers_Windows.exe installer.

  5. Follow the wizard's instructions to complete the installation.

When the installation is complete, you can include the NetSuite.SuiteAnalyticsConnect.dll library directly in your project, by adding it in your custom application. You can register your project template to make it available in Visual Studio.

To add a project template for Visual Studio:

  1. Copy the SuiteAnalyticsConnectTemplate folder from the driver installation folder.

  2. Place it to the following folder: C:\Users\<Username>\Documents\<Visual Studio folder>\Templates\ProjectTemplates.

  3. Restart Visual Studio.
