Database

The Database tab is where your project’s data lives. The left rail lists your tables; the main panel shows the selected table’s data.

Select a table to open its data grid:

  • Search across all columns; results are paginated (50 rows per page).
  • Add row — a form with a field per column (empty = no value; booleans get a true/false dropdown).
  • Click a row to edit it; the trash icon deletes it (with confirmation).
  • Export — download the table as CSV.
  • Import — upload a CSV to bulk-load rows.
  • Sample data — the AI generates realistic example rows for the table; you review the proposal before it runs.
  • Seed users — on a user-profile table, creates 5 throwaway test accounts so you can try member features without inventing users manually.

Click New table:

  1. Name it (lowercase with underscores, e.g. booking_requests).
  2. Add fields — each with a name, a type (text, number, integer, boolean, uuid, datetime, date, json), and an optional flag.
  3. Pick who can access it (this matters — see below):
    • Anyone can read — public content, like posts on a blog feed.
    • Anyone can read & submit — public content visitors can add to, like a guestbook.
    • Each user sees only their own rows — private per-user data, like saved favorites.
    • Private — no public access; only your server functions can touch it.

Every table automatically gets an id and a created_at column.

Access rules decide what your site’s visitors can do with each table — they’re enforced by the database itself, so there’s no way around them from the browser.

Click Policies on a table to manage them:

  • See whether row-level security is on, and the list of current rules.
  • Add a policy from presets: Anyone can read, Logged-in users can read, Anyone can insert, Each user manages only their own rows — or build a custom rule if you know SQL.
  • Delete rules you no longer want.

The RT toggle (next to each table in the rail, or the Realtime button in the toolbar) makes a table live: pages on your site that subscribe to it update instantly when data changes — new chat messages appear, counters tick, feeds refresh without reload.

For anything the UI doesn’t cover, open the SQL editor (bottom of the table rail):

  • Type a query and Run — results appear below; write statements (INSERT, UPDATE, CREATE…) confirm on success.
  • Don’t write SQL? Use the Ask AI to write SQL bar at the top — describe what you want (“a reviews table anyone can read, with realtime”) and it generates the statement for you to run.
