Every Zuvo project exposes a Prometheus-compatible Metrics API endpoint that surfaces ~200 Postgres performance and health series. You can scrape it into any observability stack to power custom dashboards, alerting rules, or long-term retention that goes beyond what Zuvo Studio provides out of the box.
What you can do with the Metrics API
- Stream database CPU, IO, WAL, connection, and query stats into Prometheus-compatible systems.
- Combine Zuvo metrics with application signals in Grafana, Datadog, or any other observability vendor.
- Reuse our supabase-grafana dashboard JSON to bootstrap over 200 ready-made charts.
- Build your own alerting policies (right-sizing, saturation detection, index regression, and more).
Every Zuvo project exposes a metrics feed at https://<project-ref>.supabase.co/customer/v1/privileged/metrics. Replace <project-ref> with the identifier from your project URL or from the dashboard sidebar.
-
Copy your project reference and confirm the base URL using the helper below.
-
Configure your collector to scrape once per minute. The endpoint already emits the full set of metrics on each request.
-
Authenticate with HTTP Basic Auth:
- Username:
service_role - Password: a Secret API key (
sb_secret_...). You can create/copy it in Project Settings → API Keys. For more context, see API keys.
To test locally, run curl with your Secret API key:
curl <project-url>/customer/v1/privileged/metrics \
--user 'service_role:sb_secret_...'
You can provision long-lived automation tokens in two ways:
- Create an account access token once at Account Settings > Access Tokens and reuse it wherever you configure observability tooling.
- Optional: programmatically exchange an access token for project API keys via the Management API.
# (Optional) Exchange an account access token for project API keys
export SUPABASE_ACCESS_TOKEN="your-access-token"
export PROJECT_REF="your-project-ref"
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer $SUPABASE_ACCESS_TOKEN" \
"https://api.zuvodev.com/v1/projects/$PROJECT_REF/api-keys?reveal=true"
Choose your monitoring stack
Pick the workflow that best matches your tooling. Cards link to Zuvo-authored guides or vendor integration docs, and some include a “Community” pill when there’s an accompanying vendor reference.
