Perhaps you have read Oracle communications or heard that NetSuite has announced a change to its SOAP web services endpoint policy. Starting with the 2026.1 release, SOAP endpoints will no longer be issued on a regular schedule. This means that support for SOAP endpoints will no longer have updates provided by NetSuite. All existing SOAP web services endpoints will continue to be supported for three years after their release date.

  • TrueCommerce is aware of the change and will ensure our integration is compliant and that your integration connectivity keeps working.

  • There is no action needed by you at this time.

Below is the communication you may have received from Oracle.

With its gradual removal of SOAP web services, NetSuite will move to Suite Talk REST web services instead. This phaseout will happen over the next three years with retirement of SOAP web services following their traditional retirement schedule.

TrueCommerce's SOAP to REST Plan

  • TrueCommerce's NetSuite adapter will be updated to the 2024.2 SOAP web services this Fall 2025.

  • NetSuite has committed to support the 2024.2 SOAP web services fully through Fall 2027.

  • Over the next 18 months, TrueCommerce will migrate from SOAP web services to all REST web services.

FAQs

What is a SOAP web service?

Simple Object Access Protocol is an open-standard, XML-based messaging protocol that allows different computer systems to exchange data securely over a network, typically using HTTP. It provides a standardized framework for web services, defining how to format requests and responses using XML, and is known for its strong typing.

What is a REST web service?

Representational State Transfer is a common architectural style for building web services that leverage the principles of the REST pattern. It emphasizes a stateless client-server architecture where web services are treated as resources, uniquely identified by Uniform Resource Identifiers (URLs).

Why is NetSuite moving from SOAP to REST APIs?

REST APIs are NetSuite’s recommended integration standard because they are more scalable, secure, and easier to maintain. They also align with industry best practices.

How long does NetSuite support SOAP endpoints?

Each SOAP endpoint is supported for three years after its release. With every new release, the oldest supported endpoint is retired.

Will I have continued connectivity (between Transaction Manager and NetSuite) through NetSuite's changes?

Yes! Our goal is to make this a non-event for you. You can continue to rely on TrueCommerce for uninterrupted service.
