READ ME: Important Note Regarding Your Email Address

The new CloudExtend Apps are all using CloudExtend Federated Identity (CEFI) to login you into NetSuite by associating your NetSuite email address with your Microsoft or Google email address. Once you have logged in switching accounts, roles, etc., will be seamless.

Watch the video or follow the steps below:

Step 1: Click Home.

Step 2: Click Add-ins then select Get Add-ins.

Step 3: Search for CloudExtend and install the Data Management App.

Once the add-ins are installed it's time to login. Most users can login with no issues. If you're having trouble it's usually because your NetSuite role is missing a permission or two. Share this article with your NetSuite admin and you should be up and running in no time.
