Supabase Authentication

Overview

This skill provides authentication and user management operations through the Supabase Auth API. Supports email/password authentication, session management, user metadata, and password recovery.

Prerequisites

Required environment variables:

export SUPABASE_URL="https://your-project.supabase.co"
export SUPABASE_KEY="your-anon-or-service-role-key"

Helper script: This skill uses the shared Supabase API helper. Make sure to source it:

source "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/../../scripts/supabase-api.sh"

Common Operations

Sign Up - Create New User

Basic email/password signup:

source "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/../../scripts/supabase-api.sh"

supabase_post "/auth/v1/signup" '{
  "email": "user@example.com",
  "password": "securepassword123"
}'

Signup with user metadata:

supabase_post "/auth/v1/signup" '{
  "email": "user@example.com",
  "password": "securepassword123",
  "data": {
    "first_name": "John",
    "last_name": "Doe",
    "age": 30
  }
}'

Auto-confirm user (requires service role key):

# Note: Use SUPABASE_KEY with service_role key for this
supabase_post "/auth/v1/signup" '{
  "email": "user@example.com",
  "password": "securepassword123",
  "email_confirm": true
}'

Sign In - Authenticate User

Email/password login:

source "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/../../scripts/supabase-api.sh"

response=$(supabase_post "/auth/v1/token?grant_type=password" '{
  "email": "user@example.com",
  "password": "securepassword123"
}')

# Extract access token
access_token=$(echo "$response" | jq -r '.access_token')
refresh_token=$(echo "$response" | jq -r '.refresh_token')

echo "Access Token: $access_token"
echo "Refresh Token: $refresh_token"

Response includes:

  • access_token - JWT token for authenticated requests
  • refresh_token - Token to get new access token when expired
  • user - User object with id, email, metadata
  • expires_in - Token expiration time in seconds

Get Current User

Retrieve user info with access token:

source "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/../../scripts/supabase-api.sh"

# Set your access token from login
ACCESS_TOKEN="eyJhbGc..."

curl -s -X GET \
    "${SUPABASE_URL}/auth/v1/user" \
    -H "apikey: ${SUPABASE_KEY}" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer ${ACCESS_TOKEN}"

Update User

Update user metadata:

source "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/../../scripts/supabase-api.sh"

ACCESS_TOKEN="eyJhbGc..."

curl -s -X PUT \
    "${SUPABASE_URL}/auth/v1/user" \
    -H "apikey: ${SUPABASE_KEY}" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer ${ACCESS_TOKEN}" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d '{
      "data": {
        "first_name": "Jane",
        "avatar_url": "https://example.com/avatar.jpg"
      }
    }'

Update email:

curl -s -X PUT \
    "${SUPABASE_URL}/auth/v1/user" \
    -H "apikey: ${SUPABASE_KEY}" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer ${ACCESS_TOKEN}" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d '{
      "email": "newemail@example.com"
    }'

Update password:

curl -s -X PUT \
    "${SUPABASE_URL}/auth/v1/user" \
    -H "apikey: ${SUPABASE_KEY}" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer ${ACCESS_TOKEN}" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d '{
      "password": "newsecurepassword123"
    }'

Sign Out

Sign out user (invalidate refresh token):

source "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/../../scripts/supabase-api.sh"

ACCESS_TOKEN="eyJhbGc..."

curl -s -X POST \
    "${SUPABASE_URL}/auth/v1/logout" \
    -H "apikey: ${SUPABASE_KEY}" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer ${ACCESS_TOKEN}"

Refresh Token

Get new access token using refresh token:

source "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/../../scripts/supabase-api.sh"

REFRESH_TOKEN="your-refresh-token"

supabase_post "/auth/v1/token?grant_type=refresh_token" '{
  "refresh_token": "'"${REFRESH_TOKEN}"'"
}'

Password Recovery

Send password reset email:

source "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/../../scripts/supabase-api.sh"

supabase_post "/auth/v1/recover" '{
  "email": "user@example.com"
}'

Reset password with recovery token:

# This is typically done through email link
# The recovery token comes from the email link

RECOVERY_TOKEN="token-from-email"

curl -s -X PUT \
    "${SUPABASE_URL}/auth/v1/user" \
    -H "apikey: ${SUPABASE_KEY}" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer ${RECOVERY_TOKEN}" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d '{
      "password": "newpassword123"
    }'

Resend Confirmation Email

Resend email verification:

source "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/../../scripts/supabase-api.sh"

supabase_post "/auth/v1/resend" '{
  "type": "signup",
  "email": "user@example.com"
}'

Admin Operations (Service Role Key Required)

List All Users

Get all users (requires service role key):

source "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/../../scripts/supabase-api.sh"

# Make sure SUPABASE_KEY is set to service_role key
supabase_get "/auth/v1/admin/users"

Paginated user list:

# Get users with pagination
supabase_get "/auth/v1/admin/users?page=1&per_page=50"

Get User by ID

Retrieve specific user (requires service role key):

source "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/../../scripts/supabase-api.sh"

USER_ID="user-uuid-here"

supabase_get "/auth/v1/admin/users/${USER_ID}"

Create User (Admin)

Create user without email confirmation:

source "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/../../scripts/supabase-api.sh"

supabase_post "/auth/v1/admin/users" '{
  "email": "admin-created@example.com",
  "password": "securepassword123",
  "email_confirm": true,
  "user_metadata": {
    "first_name": "Admin",
    "last_name": "Created"
  }
}'

Update User (Admin)

Update user as admin:

source "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/../../scripts/supabase-api.sh"

USER_ID="user-uuid-here"

curl -s -X PUT \
    "${SUPABASE_URL}/auth/v1/admin/users/${USER_ID}" \
    -H "apikey: ${SUPABASE_KEY}" \
    -H "Authorization: Bearer ${SUPABASE_KEY}" \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d '{
      "email": "updated@example.com",
      "user_metadata": {
        "role": "admin"
      }
    }'

Delete User (Admin)

Delete user account:

source "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/../../scripts/supabase-api.sh"

USER_ID="user-uuid-here"

supabase_delete "/auth/v1/admin/users/${USER_ID}"

Common Patterns

Login and Store Tokens

#!/bin/bash
source "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/../../scripts/supabase-api.sh"

# Login
response=$(supabase_post "/auth/v1/token?grant_type=password" '{
  "email": "user@example.com",
  "password": "password123"
}')

# Extract tokens
access_token=$(echo "$response" | jq -r '.access_token')
refresh_token=$(echo "$response" | jq -r '.refresh_token')
user_id=$(echo "$response" | jq -r '.user.id')

# Store in environment or file for subsequent requests
export SUPABASE_ACCESS_TOKEN="$access_token"
export SUPABASE_REFRESH_TOKEN="$refresh_token"
export SUPABASE_USER_ID="$user_id"

echo "Logged in as user: $user_id"

Check if User Exists

source "$(dirname "${BASH_SOURCE[0]}")/../../scripts/supabase-api.sh"

# Note: This requires service role key and admin endpoint
email="check@example.com"

users=$(supabase_get "/auth/v1/admin/users")
exists=$(echo "$users" | jq --arg email "$email" '.users[] | select(.email == $email)')

if [[ -n "$exists" ]]; then
    echo "User exists"
else
    echo "User does not exist"
fi

Verify JWT Token

# Tokens are JWTs - you can decode them (requires jq)
ACCESS_TOKEN="eyJhbGc..."

# Decode payload (base64)
payload=$(echo "$ACCESS_TOKEN" | cut -d. -f2 | base64 -d 2>/dev/null)
echo "$payload" | jq '.'

# Check expiration
exp=$(echo "$payload" | jq -r '.exp')
now=$(date +%s)

if [[ $now -gt $exp ]]; then
    echo "Token expired"
else
    echo "Token valid"
fi

Error Handling

Common error responses:

Status Error Meaning
400 Invalid login credentials Wrong email or password
400 User already registered Email already exists
401 Invalid token Access token expired or invalid
422 Validation error Invalid email format or weak password
429 Too many requests Rate limit exceeded 
if response=$(supabase_post "/auth/v1/token?grant_type=password" '{...}' 2>&1); then
    echo "Login successful"
    access_token=$(echo "$response" | jq -r '.access_token')
else
    echo "Login failed: $response"
    exit 1
fi

Security Best Practices

  1. Never commit credentials: Store tokens in environment variables or secure files
  2. Use anon key for client operations: Public-facing authentication
  3. Use service role key carefully: Admin operations only, never expose to clients
  4. Implement token refresh: Refresh access tokens before they expire
  5. Enable RLS: Configure Row Level Security policies in Supabase dashboard
  6. Validate tokens server-side: Don't trust client-provided tokens without verification

Session Management

Typical flow:

  1. User signs in → Get access_token and refresh_token
  2. Store tokens securely
  3. Use access_token in Authorization header for authenticated requests
  4. When access_token expires → Use refresh_token to get new access_token
  5. User signs out → Invalidate refresh_token

Token lifespan:

  • Access token: 1 hour (default)
  • Refresh token: 30 days (default)
