Configuring the Buyer's Journey Integration

The Buyer's Journey integration allows you to view the entire lifecycle of a prospect's marketing activity.

Assign Users to Token-based Authentication Roles

After modifying roles with the appropriate token-based authentication permissions, an account administrator can assign users to those roles. The following is a brief procedure for assigning a role to an existing employee. Our syncing user must be assigned to this newly created token role. To do so, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Lists > Employees > Employees.
  2. Click Edit next to the name of the employee you want to assign the token-based authentication role.
  3. Click the Access subtab.
  4. In the Role field, select the token-based authentication role for this employee.
  5. Click Add.
  6. Click Save.

Create Applications for Token-based Authentication

Account administrators must create applications for use with token-based authentication before tokens can be created and assigned to users. Administrators use the Integration record to create applications for use with token-based authentication. To do so, follow these steps:

  1. Go to Setup > Integration > Manage Integrations > New.
  2. Enter a Name for your application.
  3. Enter a Description, if desired.
  4. The application State is Enabled by default. (The other option available for selection is Blocked.)
  5. Enter a Note, if desired.
  6. Check the Token-based Authentication box on the Authentication subtab. Clear the User Credentials check box if you want Sugar Market to only be able to authenticate using tokens.
  7. Click Save.
  8. After clicking Save, you are presented with the Consumer Key and Consumer secret. Please make note or save these as they will be necessary to set up sync between Sugar Market and Netsuite. For security reasons, the only time the Consumer Key and Consumer Secret values are displayed is on the confirmation page. After you leave this page, these values cannot be retrieved from the system. If you lose or forget these credentials, you will need to reset them to obtain new values.
    Example Consumer Key and Consumer Secret:
    Installing Salesfusion - Netsuite - Key and Secret

Manage Token-based Authentication Tokens

Users assigned a role that has the Access Token Management permission can create, assig/n, and manage a token for any user in the company. For example, they could assign a token to those users who are assigned a role with only the Log in using Access To-kens permission. To create and assign a TBA token:

  1. Log in as a user with the Access Token Management permission.
  2. Go to Setup > Users/Roles > Access Tokens > New.
  3. On the Access Tokens page, click New Access Token.
  4. On the Access Token page:
    1. Select the Application Name.
    2. Select the User. (User with Token-based Authentication created on page 7)
    3. Select the Role.(TBA Role created on Page 6)
    4. The Token Name is already populated by default with a concatenation of Application Name, User, and Role. Enter your own name for this token, if desired.
  5. Click Save. After clicking Save, you will be presented with the Token ID and Token Secret. Please make note or save these as they will be necessary to set up sync between Sugar Market and Netsuite. For security reasons, the only time the Token ID and Token Secret values are displayed is on the confirmation page. After you leave this page, these values cannot be retrieved from the system. If you lose or forget these credentials, you will need to reset them to obtain new values.
  1. Create Saved search: Click on List > Search > Saved Searches > New
  2. Select entity for the saved search:

Configuring the Netsuite Connector

Step 1: Syncing Credentials

The first thing you will do is enter the username and password that Sugar Market will use to access your Netsuite CRM. Remember if you change this password in Netsuite, you will need to update in this location as well. Otherwise, the sync will not be able to authenticate.

Fields:

  • Username: The Netsuite CRM username we should authenticate via your web services.
  • Password: The Netsuite CRM username's password.
  • Account Number: The NetSuite account number for the instance
  • Token based Authentication Details: These are generated by setting up Token-Based Authentication within your Netsuite CRM. For instructions on how to set this up, please see the Installing the Sugar Market Bundle in Netsuite CRM section of this page.

After entering the credentials as mentioned above, click Save Connection to the right.

Step 2: Syncing Dates

No Action Needed - this table will show you the last time Sugar Market has synced with your CRM. These will be updated once we have completed the initial integration.

Default User for New Leads

The user assigned as the default (catchall) owner of a new lead when it is pushed up to Netsuite and the user does not already exist in Netsuite (the user only exists in Sugar Market). When the user does not already exist in Netsuite, Sugar Market assigns the defined user in this setting as the lead record owner. The user name only populates this list after the initial sync is complete.
