Creating a SuiteSignOn Bundle

After you have completed the tasks in Setting Up SuiteSignOn Integration, you can use SuiteBundler to package your SuiteSignOn objects for distribution.

The following table lists common SuiteSignOn bundle objects:

Object

When to include in SuiteSignOn Bundle

SuiteSignOn Outbound Connection

Always

Any custom subtabs, portlet scripts, and Suitelets defined as connection points, and any custom fields defined as user identification, are automatically included with the SuiteSignOn Outbound Connection object.

Custom Field(s)

If integration uses custom fields as integration variables

Custom fields defined as user identification are automatically added.

Saved CSV Import

If integration uses custom fields as integration variables or user identification, and you want to provide a predefined import mapping for populating these fields' values

You also should include bundle documentation, a file that provides instructions for administrators who install the bundle.

SuiteSignOn bundles are customization bundles, not configuration bundles. For more information, see SuiteApp Creation and Distribution.

To bundle your SuiteSignOn integration:

  1. Create your bundle documentation file. This file should include a description of the bundle contents and a list of steps that are required after bundle installation.

    • To help administrators verify SuiteSignOn page contents, you may want to include a checklist of values for the basic information fields, connection point details, and boxes that should be checked on the User Identification subtab. Or, you could include a screenshot of this page in the bundle documentation file.

    • For details about other steps you may need to explain in this file, see Making SuiteSignOn Integrations Available to Users.

    • You must include in the bundle any custom role or roles that are used for SOAP web services calls.

  2. Go to Customization > SuiteBundler > Create Bundle to start the Bundle Builder, and follow the instructions in the SuiteBundler help topic Creating a Bundle with the Bundle Builder.

  3. To enable administrators to install your bundle, communicate to them the bundle name and ID. Also let them know the account ID of the bundle's source account.

Note:

The Web Services Access option in a bundled SuiteSignOn record is pushed to target accounts as part of new bundle installations. However, a change to this option is not pushed to target accounts during bundle updates, to prevent overwriting administrators' choices.
