Python: Initializing

You can initialize a new Supabase client using the create_client() method.

The Supabase client is your entrypoint to the rest of the Supabase functionality and is the easiest way to interact with everything we offer within the Supabase ecosystem.

• supabase_url

  (Required)

  The unique Supabase URL which is supplied when you create a new project in your project dashboard.

• supabase_key

  (Required)

  The unique Supabase Key which is supplied when you create a new project in your project dashboard.

  Options to change the Auth behaviors.

Examples

create_client()

import os
from supabase import create_client, Client

url: str = os.environ.get("SUPABASE_URL")
key: str = os.environ.get("SUPABASE_KEY")
supabase: Client = create_client(url, key)

With timeout option

import os
from supabase import create_client, Client
from supabase.client import ClientOptions

url: str = os.environ.get("SUPABASE_URL")
key: str = os.environ.get("SUPABASE_KEY")
supabase: Client = create_client(url, key,
  options=ClientOptions(
    postgrest_client_timeout=10,
    storage_client_timeout=10,
