How do I update rows in a Supabase table?

Short answer: You can update rows in Supabase by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Supabase Update Rows action to a workflow, map its 5 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

FAQ

Questions about Update Rows.

What does the Update Rows action do in Supabase?
Updates rows in a Supabase table that match a filter. PostgREST requires at least one filter, so empty filters are rejected to prevent accidental table-wide updates.
What inputs does Update Rows require?
Required: Table Name, Filter Column, Operator, Filter Value, Update Data (JSON). Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.
Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?
Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.
What happens if Supabase returns an error?
The run history shows the failed step with its input and the error message Supabase returned, so you can fix the input and run the workflow again. Automatic retries are built into HTTP steps only, where you can also set your own retry count and delay.
Does Update Rows support batch operations?
Run Update Rows inside a loop to process each item in an array. TinyCommand does not throttle calls for you, so for large arrays add a Delay step if you need to stay within Supabase's rate limits.
