STEP 1
Connect FileMaker and Supabase
Save credentials in WEXTL once. We store them encrypted and reuse the authorization across every workflow [3]. No coding or API skills required.
FileMaker and Supabase Integration
Build database workflows between FileMaker and Supabase on a visual canvas — set up data fields sync between apps once and let data flow when events come automatically. Integration will work without code and your team will see the workflow inside WEXTL® builder.

How to connect FileMaker to Supabase
Set up your FileMaker and Supabase integration in 3 simple steps [2] — no coding required. Up to 10 minutes setup.
STEP 2
Build a workflow
Paste selected FileMaker and Supabase nodes onto the canvas [4], or describe what you want and WEXTL wires the flow together with AI Builder.
STEP 3
Map your data
Choose which fields need to sync between FileMaker and Supabase. Use filters or leverage a JS custom code step in between — everything is on the canvas.
How does the integration between FileMaker and Supabase work in WEXTL?
WEXTL exposes actions and triggers for FileMaker and Supabase that help you connect apps and automate repetitive tasks [1]. A trigger is an event that happens, an action — a step that performs when the event has occurred.

Supabase modules
- Create a RowCreates a new row.
- Create a UserCreates a new user with a given email and password.
- Create a User LinkCreates a link (auth, restore, magic log in, update password) for a specified user.
- Create Multiple RowsCreates multiple rows (batch).
- Delete a BucketDeletes an existing bucket by ID.
- Delete a RowDeletes a single or multiple rows.
- Delete a UserDeletes an existing user.
- Download an ObjectDownloads an existing object from a storage bucket.
- Get a Bucket DetailsRetrieves a detailed info about existing bucket.
- Get a UserRetrieves a single user details.
- Get Rows CountRetrieves rows count in a specified table.
- List BucketsRetrieves a list of all available buckets.
- List UsersRetrieves a list of users from Supabase Auth.
- Make API CallPerforms an arbitrary authorized API call.
- Search RowsSearches for rows.
- Update a RowUpdates a single or multiple rows.
- Upload an ObjectUploads an object to an existing bucket.
- Watch EventsTriggers when your Supabase database posts an event to the generated webhook URL. Supabase has no webhook-registration API — copy the generated URL and add it under your Supabase project → Database → Webhooks (or Database → Triggers) for the table/events you want to watch.
- Watch RowsTriggers when a row is created or updated.
- Watch UsersTriggers when a new user is created using Supabase authentication.

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about connecting FileMaker and Supabase.
Connect your FileMaker and Supabase accounts once, pick a trigger in one app and an action in the other, then map the fields so data flows automatically between them. [3]
Example: when Supabase's "Watch Events" fires, WEXTL can "Create Record" in FileMaker. FileMaker has 16 actions (including Create Record, Delete Record, and Duplicate Record); Supabase has 17 actions (including Create a Row, Create a User, and Create a User Link). Add filters and transforms between steps when you need them. [1]
Yes — the integration works in both directions. Use each app's triggers to start a workflow and the other app's actions to update it. [2]
No. FileMaker-to-Supabase automations are built visually on the canvas. You can optionally add custom JavaScript with Functions when you need advanced logic. [4]
Yes. Trigger-based automations start the moment FileMaker (or Supabase) fires a new event — webhook-backed apps run within seconds, and polling-only apps re-check on a schedule you control. [7]
A first automation typically takes 5–10 minutes: connect each app's credential once, drop a trigger + action onto the canvas, map the fields, and turn the workflow on.
You can build your FileMaker + Supabase automation on a 3-day trial with every feature unlocked. Cancel anytime. For your protection, a small deposit is charged to your card when your trial starts. It counts toward your first payment and is non-refundable. [8]
