DocsBackend and data
Your app's backend and data
When your app needs to store data or let its users sign in, Qwanter gives it a backend with Supabase, in your own account. The data is yours from day one.
Connect Supabase
- Go to Connectors and connect your Supabase account (or create one, it's free).
- Ask Build for what you need: "save the orders", "let customers sign up"…
- Build creates the Supabase project in your account, sets up the tables with per-user permissions and connects it to your app.
Supabase's keys go to the project's secrets: your app uses them, but they never appear in the chat, the preview or the code.
Supabase's free plan
Supabase's free plan allows 2 active projects in total, counting all your Supabase projects. If you already have 2, Qwanter tells you and doesn't create or delete anything: pause or delete one in Supabase, or upgrade your account to Pro, and try again.
Supabase also pauses free projects after a week without use; you resume them from its dashboard.
Your app's users
If your app has accounts, Build adds sign-up and sign-in with Supabase (for example, with email or Google) and protects the data so each user only sees their own.
Payments, emails and other keys
To take payments with Stripe or send emails with Resend, connect your key once in Connectors. When Build needs it in a project, it offers to use it without pasting it again.
If an app needs another key, Build asks for it with a secure card: the key goes straight to the project's secrets and never passes through the chat.
