How I Fixed Supabase Storage RLS Errors That the Dashboard UI Couldn't Solve
Short summary
Supabase Storage's dashboard UI fails to apply RLS policies correctly to the storage.objects table, causing 400/403 upload errors. Create policies directly via SQL Editor on storage.objects with proper bucket_id filters instead. Verify with pg_policies query to confirm policies are actually applied.
- •Dashboard UI policies target bucket configuration, not the actual storage.objects RLS table where Supabase checks permissions
- •Use SQL Editor to create INSERT/SELECT/DELETE policies directly on storage.objects for anon and authenticated roles
- •Verify with SELECT FROM pg_policies query to confirm policies exist and will be enforced
