Feature Request: Add Descriptions for Edge Functions

[brahim024]

Hello Supabase Team,

First, thank you for building such a great platform.

I would like to suggest a feature for Edge Functions: the ability to add a short description or notes field to each function.

In projects with many Edge Functions, it can become difficult to remember the purpose of every function. Currently, when we need to identify what a function does, we often have to open the code or repository and inspect the implementation.

It would be very helpful if each Edge Function could have an optional description displayed directly on the Edge Functions page in the dashboard. For example:

Function Name: send-email
Description: "Sends transactional emails after user registration."
Function Name: sync-payments
Description: "Synchronizes payment status from Stripe."

This would make it much easier to manage large projects, improve team collaboration, and quickly understand the purpose of functions without needing to inspect the code.

Thank you for considering this feature request. I believe it would significantly improve the developer experience for teams managing many Edge Functions.

Best regards,
Brahim

This is a very hacky way to do it but if you create a function, the end point and slug are created so in your case it would be send-email then if you were to go into the edge function -> settings -> name you can modify the name without changins the slug/endpoint so i think you can change the name to Sends transactional emails after user registration but invoke it as send-email. Though this might make things a bit ugly if descriptions are very long
