232ce7e68c docs: focus Logs on the unified view and export queryable fields (#50073)
## I have read the
[CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
file.

Yes.

## What kind of change does this PR introduce?

Documentation update and a small Studio copy correction.

## What is the current behavior?

The Logs guide mixes unified filtering with retired SQL Explorer
instructions, and the Markdown field reference loses query semantics.

## What is the new behavior?

The Logs guide mixed filtering and event inspection with the retired SQL
Logs Explorer workflow. It now documents the unified Logs view: default
sources, filter semantics, event details, Live, sharing, bounded
exports, and missing results.

The log field reference uses one mapping for HTML and Markdown,
preserving source IDs, query expressions, and source/query types. The
Studio User-filter empty state and comments now match its Auth and API
Gateway scope.

## Additional context

Validation: shared-field mapping tests, guides Markdown generation, docs
typecheck, targeted docs/Studio ESLint, formatting, and browser
inspection of the field table. Exported Markdown includes the source IDs
and usable ClickHouse expressions. Repository-wide MDX lint has existing
failures; changed pages have no reported violations.

Self-review: hosted Studio filtering and log ingestion were checked
against the implementation, not exercised against a hosted project. The
documentation assumes the unified Logs experience is the default.

Stage 1 of 3. Review and merge from the bottom of the stack.


Stack: #50073 → #50074 → #50075.

Production docs build also passes at the stack tip after standard
reference generation.

Initial CI note: the spelling action failed while building its container
because Debian package downloads returned 404, before checking content.
The stack has no merge conflicts.

## Summary by CodeRabbit

* **Documentation**
* Expanded the log field reference with ClickHouse fields, nested-field
query examples, types, schema references, and capture limits.
* Reworked the Logs guide with clearer instructions for filtering, event
inspection, live mode, sharing, exports, retention, and missing results.
* Clarified service and Postgres log behavior and updated navigation and
metadata.

* **Bug Fixes**
* Corrected user-filtering guidance and empty-state messaging to
identify Auth and API Gateway logs as supported sources.

Supabase Studio

A dashboard for managing your self-hosted Supabase project, and used on our hosted platform. Built with:

What's included

Studio is designed to work with existing deployments - either the local hosted, docker setup, or our CLI. It is not intended for managing the deployment and administration of projects - that's out of scope.

As such, the features exposed on Studio for existing deployments are limited to those which manage your database:

  • Table & SQL editors
    • Saved queries are unavailable
  • Database management
    • Policies, roles, extensions, replication
  • API documentation

Managing Project Settings

Project settings are managed outside of the Dashboard. If you use docker compose, you should manage the settings in your docker-compose file. If you're deploying Supabase to your own cloud, you should store your secrets and env vars in a vault or secrets manager.

How to contribute?

  • Branch from master and name your branches with the following structure
    • {type}/{branch_name}
      • Type: chore | fix | feature
      • The branch name is arbitrary — just make sure it summarizes the work.
  • When you send a PR to master, it will automatically tag members of the frontend team for review.
  • Review the main contributing guide to help test your feature before sending a PR.
  • The Dashboard is under active development. You should run git pull frequently to make sure you're up to date.

Developer Quickstart

Note

Supabase internal use: To develop on Studio locally with the backend services, see the instructions in the internal infrastructure repo.

# You'll need to be on Node v22
# in /studio

## For external contributors
pnpm install # install dependencies
pnpm run dev # start dev server

## For internal contributors
## First clone the private supabase/platform repo and follow instructions for setting up mise
mise studio  # Run from supabase/platform alongside `mise infra`

## For all
pnpm run test # run tests
pnpm run test -- --watch # run tests in watch mode

Running within a self-hosted environment

Follow the self-hosting guide to get started.

cd ..
cd docker
docker compose -f docker-compose.yml -f ./dev/docker-compose.dev.yml up

Once you've got that set up, update .env in the studio folder with the corresponding values.

POSTGRES_PASSWORD=
SUPABASE_ANON_KEY=
SUPABASE_SERVICE_KEY=

Then run the following commands to install dependencies and start the dashboard.

npm install
npm run dev

If you would like to configure different defaults for "Default Organization" and "Default Project", you will need to update the .env in the studio folder with the corresponding values.

DEFAULT_ORGANIZATION_NAME=
DEFAULT_PROJECT_NAME=
