Flutterflow Supabase realtime database update<\/h2>\n\n\n\nThe Challenge of Real-Time Implementation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nWhile SUPABASE offers real-time functionality, flutterflow does not support this feature with its supabase integration like the support flutterflow offers for firebase and to create this feature we will need a custom solution with custom code.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Crafting a Custom Solution<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nFirst, login to your supabase dashboard<\/a> and make sure that realtime is selected on the supabase table that you want to monitor<\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/zerocodeskills.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/image-72.png\")
<\/figure>\n\n\n\nNext we will need to build a custom action in flutterflow <\/a>to perform this action so head over to your flutterflow app then click on the action builder and add a custom action. <\/p>\n\n\n\n![\"\"](\"https:\/\/zerocodeskills.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/Flutterflow-Supabase-realtime-database-1024x792.png\")

<\/figure>\n\n\n\nBuilding the Connection<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nLet’s get practical. Firstly, we define the custom action name as “supabaseRealTime” within FlutterFlow<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\nThis action will have parameters specifying the name of the target table and an action parameter. Once everything is set click on the boiler plate code to set it in the code editor.
