Connect Supabase: what to paste and what FoxPlug reads
Supabase is a hosted Postgres database with auth, storage and edge functions, used as the back end of many small apps. FoxPlug reads it only when you press Check for what's new. What you give it: personal access token (starts sbp_).
Where to find it: In FoxPlug open Settings, then Publishing & integrations, then the row "The tools you build with", and press How to connect next to Supabase. Faster: press / in Settings and type Supabase. Open it in FoxPlug
Steps
- Open supabase.com/dashboard/account/tokens.
- Click Generate new token and name it FoxPlug.
- Choose a scoped token (not Classic) and pick the one project you want FoxPlug to watch. FoxPlug reads three things: your project list, the Edge Functions list and the Database migrations list. Set the permission rows with those names to Read and leave every other row on No access.
- Click Generate. The token is shown only once: copy the token starting with sbp_ and paste it into FoxPlug before leaving the screen.
- Press Connect.
- Press the connect button in FoxPlug. FoxPlug checks the key or sign-in straight away and tells you in plain words if it was refused.

Good to know
- What to give: personal access token (starts sbp_). Give it read-only access.
- What FoxPlug looks at: your projects; edge functions per project: name and version; edge functions per project: when it changed; database migrations per project: name; database migrations per project: version.
- Everything FoxPlug reads from Supabase, and what it never reads, is on its integration page.
- You can disconnect any time from the same place, and the stored key is deleted.
What it does not do
- rows in your database (no data address is called; only the list of projects, functions and migrations).
- the code of your edge functions (only name, version and update time are used).
- the SQL inside a migration (only its name and version are used).
- anything it writes back: no deploy, migration or setting is changed.
