Frequently Asked Questions
Can I recover a deleted vector index on Supabase Vector?
Most vector databases do not support point-in-time recovery of deleted indexes. If you have your source data and embeddings generation pipeline, you can re-index. This is why maintaining a source-of-truth dataset is critical.
How long does a new index take to become available on Supabase Vector?
Index initialization typically takes seconds to a few minutes for empty indexes. For indexes with millions of vectors, it can take longer. Check the index status via the API before sending queries.
How do I prevent accidental index deletion?
Use Supabase Vector's project-level permissions to restrict deletion rights. Add index deletion confirmation to your deployment scripts. Keep a backup of your vector data in your own storage.
