Step-by-Step Guide
Export Postgres database
Use pg_dump with the connection string from Settings → Database to export all tables and data. This is the most critical step.
Download Storage bucket files
Export all files from Supabase Storage buckets. Use the dashboard or supabase-js client to download everything.
Add organization members
Organization Settings → Members → Invite. Add a trusted person as Owner to maintain the project.
Pause or delete projects
Pause unused projects to stop charges (data preserved for 90 days) or delete entirely. Downgrade to free tier if one project suffices.
