description: "Supabase’s February 2023 beta update covers product changes across its dashboard, Auth, Postgres, Edge Functions, GraphQL, documentation, and community resources. GraphiQL is now built into the dashboard for exploring and querying pg_graphql APIs, while Docs search uses pgvector and OpenAI to support Supabase-specific questions. Supabase CLI 1.36+ can serve multiple Edge Functions simultaneously, and a multi-stage Postgres Dockerfile reduces the image from 1.3GB to 250MB, enabling faster boot time. The release also adds dashboard management for database roles, moves API documentation into the table editor with type-file generation, and provides a full OpenAPI 3.0 specification for Auth. Additional updates include inferred supabase-js response types, Deno 1.30.3 for Edge Functions, and Realtime behavior for deletes under RLS."

## Summary

Supabase’s February 2023 beta update covers product changes across its dashboard, Auth, Postgres, Edge Functions, GraphQL, documentation, and community resources. GraphiQL is now built into the dashboard for exploring and querying pg\_graphql APIs, while Docs search uses pgvector and OpenAI to support Supabase-specific questions. Supabase CLI 1.36+ can serve multiple Edge Functions simultaneously, and a multi-stage Postgres Dockerfile reduces the image from 1.3GB to 250MB, enabling faster boot time. The release also adds dashboard management for database roles, moves API documentation into the table editor with type-file generation, and provides a full OpenAPI 3.0 specification for Auth. Additional updates include inferred supabase-js response types, Deno 1.30.3 for Edge Functions, and Realtime behavior for deletes under RLS.

## Context

The February 2023 beta update presents a broad set of Supabase product, dashboard, documentation, tooling, and community updates, including changes to AI search, Auth, Database, Edge Functions, and GraphQL.

## Approach / What changed

The update introduces dashboard-integrated GraphiQL, pgvector and OpenAI-powered Docs search, simultaneous serving of multiple Edge Functions in Supabase CLI 1.36+, a multi-stage Postgres Docker build, dashboard role management, table-editor API documentation, a full Auth OpenAPI 3.0 specification, and several runtime and client-library updates.

## Takeaways

- A rewritten multi-stage Postgres Dockerfile compiles each extension in a separate stage, reducing the image from 1.3GB to 250MB and enabling faster boot time.
- Supabase CLI 1.36+ supports serving multiple Edge Functions at the same time with supabase functions serve.
- The dashboard now supports creating, updating, and deleting database roles, described as a step toward column-level security.
