Supabase Realtime is a powerful tool that enables developers to build real-time applications by providing live updates to data changes in your database. It leverages PostgreSQL's logical replication feature to stream changes to your frontend applications, allowing for seamless and dynamic user experiences.
When working with Supabase Realtime, you might encounter an error message indicating an 'Invalid Subscription ID'. This error typically arises when attempting to subscribe to a channel or table changes using an incorrect or non-existent subscription ID.
The 'Invalid Subscription ID' error occurs when the subscription ID used in your application does not match any active subscriptions in your Supabase project. This can happen due to typos, outdated IDs, or attempting to use a subscription ID that has not been properly initialized.
Ensure that the subscription ID you are using is correct. Double-check for any typographical errors and confirm that the ID matches the one generated by your Supabase project.
Make sure that the subscription has been properly initialized in your application. You can do this by reviewing your code where the subscription is set up. For example:
const subscription = supabase
.from('your_table_name')
.on('*', payload => {
console.log('Change received!', payload)
})
.subscribe();
Ensure that the table name and event type are correctly specified.
Log into your Supabase dashboard and navigate to the Realtime section. Verify that the subscription ID exists and is active. If it does not exist, you may need to recreate it.
If the subscription ID has changed, update your application with the new ID. This might involve updating environment variables or configuration files where the subscription ID is stored.
For more information on setting up and managing subscriptions in Supabase Realtime, refer to the official Supabase Realtime Documentation. Additionally, you can explore community discussions and support on the Supabase GitHub Discussions page.
