External ID Editor

Free utility to manage NetSuite External IDs directly in the UI without relying on one-off CSV imports.

External ID Editor

External ID Editor is a free utility in the Topaz Harbor Admin Utilities lineup that helps NetSuite teams manage External IDs directly from the user interface. No more CSV Imports to update a single External ID!

Install Paths

1) Admin Install Path (No SDF)

Best for NetSuite admins who are not using SDF:

  1. Download the script file from GitHub here.
  2. Upload the script file to File Cabinet.
  3. Create the User Event script record manually.
  4. Create and release the script deployment.
  5. Validate that External ID appears and saves on target records.

2) Developer Install Path (SDF)

Best for technical teams using SuiteCloud CLI:

  1. Open the SDF project in External ID Editor/.
  2. Run suitecloud project:validate.
  3. Run suitecloud project:deploy.
  4. Verify script and deployment IDs in target account.

Detailed install documentation for both paths is available in the GitHub repository.

Important Note

  • NetSuite does not support clearing the External ID once it has been set.
