2. Automatic Migration

Once connected, the extension clones your Lovable Cloud setup and deploys it to Supabase automatically.What’s migrated:
  • Database Schema — Tables & rows
  • Edge Functions — Serverless logic
  • Authentication — Users & permissions
Complexity Check: Standard schemas migrate automatically. Custom SQL triggers or complex RLS policies may need manual review.
Migration typically completes in under 5 minutes. You’ll receive a notification when it’s ready.
