I want to trigger a Supabase function whenever a new email arrives in Gmail.
If I understand Google's Instructions correctly, this needs to be done using Google's Pub/Sub service.
However, Supabase requires an authorization header to be sent with the POST request to the webhook, and while Pub/Sub allows for authorization, it only seems to support service accounts, and not just setting a simple Bearer token.
It seems like either polling or setting up a proxy webhook would be the only feasible options left—unless I'm missing a simpler way?
Thanks!
You can deploy the function to not require the auth headers by adding the --no-verify-jwt flag when deploying your functions.
From the edge functions docs
By default, Edge Functions require a valid JWT in the authorization header. This header is automatically set when invoking your function via a Supabase client library. If you want to use Edge Functions to handle webhooks (e.g. Stripe payment webhooks etc.), you need to pass the --no-verify-jwt flag when deploying your function.
