Supabase Edge functions are functions that run on the edge, close to your users. They are executed in a secure environment and have access to the same APIs as your application. They can be used to trigger a task from an external event such as a webhook, or from a database event with the payload passed through to the task. These examples will show you how to trigger tasks from both of these events.
Follow the official guides below to run this repo. There is also important information about authentication with Supabase in the Trigger.dev docs; the service role key is used rather than JWT tokens for authentication. This should be changed if you plan on using this in production.
