Supabase Search

Hi there,

Is it possible for either Fuzzy Search or Search & Autocorrect to search Supabase results that are loaded via the Zeroqode Supabase Plugin? Ie, I have loaded up locations, but as there are 30, I would rather a search function then a dropdown. Is it possible to search API results?

Thanks,
Phil.

Hello @phil1,

Thank you for reaching out.

In Bubble, Fuzzy Search and Search & Autocorrect don’t directly query external APIs (including Supabase). To use them, you’d typically fetch your Locations from Supabase first (e.g., on page load), then keep that list in Bubble (for example in a custom state, a repeating group, or your Bubble database). After that, you can run client-side searching/filtering over that in Bubble and use whichever UI element you prefer, as well as any plugin that has searching functionality.

That said, you can also implement “search” on the Supabase side using the Supabase Pro Kit itself:

  • A simple way is to use Fetch with Filters / Advanced filters (e.g., like/ilike, or, etc.) so Supabase returns only matching rows.
  • For more advanced searching you can create a Postgres function (RPC) in Supabase and execute it via the plugin’s RPC action (or use an Edge Function if needed).

Let me know if you have any further questions.

Thanks Egor,

The solution I was looking for was actually searching data that had already been loaded via API without having to load it as a custom state, and the solution for others looking for the same solve was embarrassingly simple:

I ended up using the Selectize dropdown plugin with the source being that APIs data, and that then filters elements as required - essentially acting as a search bar.
