Step 4 · about 8 minutes
Build your first table
You will make a table called notes with two columns you chose yourself. No code.
In the left sidebar open the Table Editor, then click New table. Name it notes.
- Leave the id and created_at columns Supabase suggests — they are the primary key and the time the row was made.
- Add a column called body, of type text.
- Leave Enable Row Level Security ticked. Step 8 explains what it does; untick it and your data is open to the world.
