// Upload an image to the "avatars" bucket
const spaceCat = event.target.files[0]
const { data, error } = await supabase
  .storage
  .from('avatars')
  .upload('space-cat.png', spaceCat)
  
  
  


  

// Download the "space-cat.png" image from the "avatars" bucket
const { data, error } = await supabase
    .storage
    .from('avatars')
    .download('space-cat.png')





        
  

// List all the files in the "avatars" bucket
const { data, error } = await supabase
    .storage
    .from('avatars')
    .list()





        
  

// Move and rename files
const { data, error } = await supabase
  .storage
  .from('avatars')
  .move('public/space-cat.png', 'private/space-cat.png')






        
  

// Delete a list of files
const { data, error } = await supabase
  .storage
  .from('avatars')
  .remove([ 'avatar1.png', 'avatar2.png' ])

Integrates natively
with Supabase Auth

Using Postgres Row Level Security to create Object access rules.

Storage Authorization is built around Postgres so that you can use any combination of SQL, Postgres functions, and even your own metadata to write policies.

create policy "Public Access" 
on storage.objects for all 
using ( bucket_id = 'avatars' );
    
create policy "Public access to a folder" 
on storage.objects for all 
using (
  bucket_id = 'avatars' 
  and (storage.foldername(name))[1] = 'public' 
);
    
create policy "Logged in access" 
on storage.objects 
for all using (
  bucket_id = 'avatars' 
  and auth.role() = 'authenticated'
);
create policy "Individual access" 
on storage.objects for all 
using (
  bucket_id = 'avatars' 
  and name = 'folder/only_uid.jpg' 
  and auth.uid() = 'd8c7bce9-cfeb-497b-bd61-e66ce2cbdaa2'
);

Allow public CRUD access to a bucket

This will allow any user access to the bucket named 'avatars'

Allow public CRUD access to a folder in a bucket

This will allow any user access to the folder named 'public' in the bucket 'avatars'

Allow any authenticated user access to a folder

This will allow any authenticated user access to the folder named 'authenticated' in the bucket 'avatars'

Allow a specific user access to a file

This will allow a specific user based on the user's UID access to a file named 'only_uid.jpg'
