BuildShip Joins Forces with Supabase for No-Code Database Experience

BuildShip, a low-code visual backend builder, simplifies complex backend tasks with just a few clicks. What if interacting with your database was equally effortless?

That’s where Supabase comes in, a powerhouse in the realm of databases. While BuildShip had already extended support for other databases like Firebase, Postgres, and MySQL much earlier, the community demand for Supabase support far surpassed them.

Moreover, Supabase marked their Xth Launch Week with an exciting series of releases. Among these, the team introduced the AI Assistant, Postgres Roles, Edge functions, and Auth. We are excited to offer an exclusive preview of this experience through BuildShip’s Supabase OAuth Trigger.

This feature enables easy connection to your Supabase account using OAuth in a single click. Begin building webhooks, APIs, scheduled jobs, or backend workflows visually, in a completely No Code style, right from your browser.

How To Get Started With Supabase Without Knowing Code?

Supabase is designed to simplify database creation, user authentication, and storage solutions. With its three core offerings—database, storage, and authentication—Supabase caters to diverse backend needs.

Supabase's excellent documentation and vibrant community contribute to a supportive environment if you are getting started. Creating tables becomes straightforward, with the API/docs offering code snippets that you can simply copy / paste for CRUD-based activities.

Furthermore, Supabase automatically generates APIs, allowing for easy execution of various operations. This means you can deploy websites on platforms like GitHub Pages, Vercel, or any other web hosting service.

Combined with BuildShip, you can directly connect to your Supabase account using the Supabase OAuth Trigger node and perform various operations without writing a single line of code. Let’s learn how.

Supabase Webhook in BuildShip

To start building your workflow, create an account on BuildShip and click on "Add Trigger" to add the Supabase Trigger. The BuildShip Supabase Trigger allows the creation of a database webhook on Supabase. When an event occurs on the specified Supabase table, this trigger initiates the associated BuildShip workflow. Events can include Insertions, Updates, or Deletions.

This trigger operates through Supabase OAuth authentication, eliminating the need for users to provide API Keys. By clicking on the fingerprint icon, users are redirected to the Supabase login page to grant necessary permissions.

Connect and ship webhooks right from BuildShip - all without writing a single line of code 🤩

The trigger can be configured to activate on auth updates, such as when a user signs up. To set this up, ensure the table schema is defined as "auth", and the table name is specified as "users".
