# ION to NetSuite

## Getting started

Follow the instructions below to automatically sync data between [ION](/apps/i/ion.md) and [NetSuite](/apps/n/netsuite.md):

First, create an ION integration following the instructions [here](/apps/i/ion.md). Configure your data fetch, specifying:

* The types of data you want to fetch (`parts`, `files`, `change orders`, etc).
* Fetch frequency - this is either scheduled, eg. every 1 hour, 10 minutes, etc., or event-driven via webhooks.
  {% endstep %}

{% step %}

Next, set up a NetSuite integration, following the instructions [here](/apps/n/netsuite.md). Configure your data fetch, specifying:

* The types of data you want to fetch (`parts`, `purchase orders`, `work orders`, etc).
* Fetch frequency, for example every 1 hour, 10 minutes, etc.

Violet will need to fetch whichever data you wish to be synced from ION (eg. `parts` or `purchase orders`).
{% endstep %}

{% step %}

### Configure ION sync to NetSuite

In the ION integration panel, select NetSuite as the target app from the dropdown menu:

Then configure any settings or rules, for example:

1. How often data should be synced, and allowable sync windows<br>

2. Only sync data with certain Statuses<br>

3. Or only sync data created after a certain date.

Violet will automatically sync new data to NetSuite, and it will push updates to existing data when there are changes.

{% endstepper %}

This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the following URL with the `ask` and `goal` query parameters:

```
GET https://docs.violetlabs.com/features/workflows/data-sync-workflows/example-syncs/ion-to-netsuite.md?ask=<question>&goal=<user_goal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is what the user is ultimately trying to achieve, the reason they need the answer. Sharing it helps GitBook give you a better, more relevant answer. A goal is most helpful when it describes the outcome the user wants rather than restating the question. For example, with `ask=how do I create an API token`, a goal like `automate deployments from our CI pipeline` lets GitBook tailor the answer to that use case.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
