New to NetSuite | N/action: Action.promise(options) Method

edited Aug 22, 2025 7:52PM in SuiteCloud

In our previous article, New to NetSuite | N/action Module Overview, we discussed the purpose and usage of the N/action module. In our ongoing exploration of the N/action module, this article highlights the Action.promise(). This method executes a record action asynchronously and returns a Promise that resolves with the action result. This allows you to handle the action result using modern JavaScript asynchronous patterns like .then() and .catch(). 

 

Method Description 

  • Executes a record action asynchronously. 
  • Returns a Promise that resolves to a plain JavaScript object containing the action results. 
  • If the action fails, errors are listed in the notifications property of the result object. 

Howdy, Stranger!
