You can find a selection of React Email templates in the React Email Examples.

4. Deploy the Function

Deploy function to Supabase:

1
supabase functions deploy send-email --no-verify-jwt

Note down the function URL, you will need it in the next step!

5. Configure the Send Email Hook

Go to the Auth Hooks section of the Supabase dashboard and create a new "Send Email hook".
Select HTTPS as the hook type.
Paste the function URL in the "URL" field.
Click "Generate Secret" to generate your webhook secret and note it down.
Click "Create" to save the hook configuration.

Store these secrets in your .env file.

1
2
RESEND_API_KEY=your_resend_api_keySEND_EMAIL_HOOK_SECRET=<base64_secret>

You can generate the secret in the Auth Hooks section of the Supabase dashboard. Make sure to remove the v1,whsec_ prefix!

Set the secrets from the .env file:

1
supabase secrets set --env-file supabase/functions/.env

Now your Supabase Edge Function will be triggered anytime an Auth Email needs to be send to the user!
