Supabase deprecates legacy API keys, introduces new keys by 2026

Supabase is deprecating its legacy anon and service_role API keys, which are long JSON Web Tokens, by the end of 2026. These will be replaced by new sb_publishable_ and sb_secret_ keys. While creating new keys does not automatically disable the old ones, this can be done separately in the API Keys settings. The platform also notes that secret keys return a 401 error from browsers but remain functional when used with tools like curl, emphasizing their server-side use. AI

IMPACT Developers using AI-generated apps on Supabase need to update their API key management before the 2026 deadline.
