Supabase Storage An error occurred while attempting to configure CORS for a storage bucket.

The CORS configuration format might not adhere to the required specifications.

Understanding Supabase Storage

Supabase Storage is a part of the Supabase suite, which provides developers with a scalable and easy-to-use backend solution. It allows you to store and serve large amounts of data, such as images, videos, and other files, directly from your Supabase project. With built-in authentication and access control, Supabase Storage ensures your data is secure and easily accessible.

Identifying the Symptom

When working with Supabase Storage, you might encounter an error labeled as BucketCORSConfigurationError. This error typically manifests when you attempt to configure Cross-Origin Resource Sharing (CORS) settings for a storage bucket, and something goes wrong. The error prevents your application from accessing resources across different origins, which is crucial for web applications that interact with external APIs or resources.

Exploring the Issue

What is CORS?

CORS is a security feature implemented by web browsers to prevent malicious websites from accessing resources from a different origin. It involves setting specific headers that dictate which domains are allowed to access resources on your server.

Understanding the Error

The BucketCORSConfigurationError indicates that there is an issue with the CORS configuration for your Supabase Storage bucket. This could be due to incorrect formatting or missing required fields in the configuration.

Steps to Fix the Issue

Verify CORS Configuration Format

Ensure that your CORS configuration is correctly formatted. A typical CORS configuration should look like this:

{
"allowedOrigins": ["https://example.com"],
"allowedMethods": ["GET", "POST"],
"allowedHeaders": ["Content-Type"],
"maxAgeSeconds": 3600
}

Make sure that all fields are correctly specified and that the JSON structure is valid.

Update CORS Settings

To update the CORS settings for your bucket, you can use the Supabase Dashboard or the Supabase CLI. Here’s how you can do it via the CLI:

supabase storage update-bucket-cors \
--bucket-name your-bucket-name \
--cors-config '{
"allowedOrigins": ["https://example.com"],
"allowedMethods": ["GET", "POST"],
"allowedHeaders": ["Content-Type"],
"maxAgeSeconds": 3600
}'

Replace your-bucket-name and the CORS configuration with your specific details.

Additional Resources

For more information on configuring CORS, you can refer to the MDN Web Docs on CORS. Additionally, the Supabase Storage Documentation provides comprehensive guidance on managing storage buckets and their configurations.

By following these steps and ensuring your CORS configuration is correct, you should be able to resolve the BucketCORSConfigurationError and enable your application to access resources across different origins seamlessly.
