# Authorising Patchworks to access your NetSuite account (services)

## Required credentials

To add a Patchworks [connector](https://doc.wearepatchworks.com/product-documentation/patchworks-services/service-connectors/adding-a-service-connector) for NetSuite, you don't need to enter authentication credentials in the setup form. Instead, you are directed to the NetSuite login page so you can log in and authorise access for Patchworks.

## Required steps

**Step 1**\
Log in to the [Patchworks dashboard](https://app.wearepatchworks.com/login) and choose to [add a new connector](https://doc.wearepatchworks.com/product-documentation/patchworks-services/service-connectors/adding-a-service-connector) - when prompted to choose a system, select **NetSuite SuiteTalk**:

**Step 2**\
Set the **live** or **testing** environment as required and enter a **name/description** for this connector - then click the **submit** button:
