BREAKING: Supabase Storage Search Failing for Restored Projects
What's Down
Subabase is reporting a monitoring-level incident affecting Storage search functionality specifically for restored projects. Users attempting to search or list objects within Supabase Storage buckets on projects that have been restored from backups are experiencing failures.
This appears to be isolated to the search/listing operations rather than core storage read/write functionality.
How to Check If You're Affected
Check your project status: Visit your Supabase project dashboard and navigate to Storage. Try listing a bucket's contents.
Immediate Workarounds
1. Direct File Access (if you know the path)
If you know the exact file path/name, bypass search functionality: ```javascript const { data, error } = await supabase .storage .from('bucket-name') .download('known-file-path.txt'); ```2. Use RLS-Protected Bucket Queries
Instead of relying on dashboard storage search, query your file metadata from a database table if you're storing file references: ```javascript const { data } = await supabase .from('files') .select('*') .eq('bucket_name', 'your-bucket'); ```3. Delay Restore Operations
If possible, avoid restoring projects until Supabase confirms the issue is resolved. If not urgent, schedule restoration during maintenance windows.4. Use Alternative Storage Temporarily

Status
This is a monitoring-level incident. Supabase is actively investigating. Check:
Recommendations
1. Do not restore new projects until resolution is confirmed 2. Document your file paths for workaround access 3. Monitor the status page for updates 4. Implement fallback logic in your application to handle search failures gracefully 5. Test your backup strategy with non-critical projects first
