HTTP requests to projectUrl/rest/v1/resource query

[jamesdiffeycoding]

I have been working to create an API server that the front end of my application fetches from, which then interacts with Supabase. The reason I did this is to avoid exposing the apiKey on a server component.

I can successfully POST new functions using the post route below. However, when I send a DELETE request it does not work. The main different I expect would be to do with the id that needs to be part of the DELETE request.

In order to get the POST working, I needed, of course, to create a policy allowing the anon user (the apiKey is the ANON key) to post data. I have made exactly the same policy to allow DELETING data, but I can't get it to work. The function runs, but always returns an error.

If I append an exampleId such as "5" to the end of the delete url, I get a 404 error. If I remove it I get a 400 error.

I'm struggling as I can't find any examples in the docs of how to work for this. I feel I'm shooting in the dark guessing how to pass the id of the note-item that I want to delete.

Seems a rough way to go to use direct http requests on the REST API. But if you are going that way....
https://postgrest.org/en/v12/references/api/tables_views.html#delete
That is the API Supabase uses.
Also in your dashboard there is an API tab and it has a Bash option in upper right that will show examples of REST http code for each or your tables.

You will need to meet both select and delete RLS to do a delete.
