+
+There are two ways to authenticate your Supabase client in Trigger.dev tasks:
+
+### 1. Using JWT Authentication (Recommended for User-Specific Operations)
+
+A JWT (JSON Web Token) is a string-formatted data container that typically stores user identity and permissions data. Row Level Security policies are based on the information present in JWTs. Supabase JWT docs can be found [here](https://supabase.com/docs/guides/auth/jwts).
+
+To use JWTs with Supabase, you'll need to add the `SUPABASE_JWT_SECRET` environment variable in your project. This secret is used to sign the JWTs. This can be found in your Supabase project settings under `Data API`.
+
+This example code shows how to create a JWT token for a user and initialize a Supabase client with that token for authentication, allowing the task to perform database operations as that specific user. You can adapt this code to fit your own use case.
+
+```ts
+
+// The rest of your task code
+async run(payload: { user_id: string }) {
+    const { user_id } = payload;
+
+    // Optional error handling
+    const jwtSecret = process.env.SUPABASE_JWT_SECRET;
+    if (!jwtSecret) {
+      throw new Error(
+        "SUPABASE_JWT_SECRET is not defined in environment variables"
+      );
+    }
+
+    // Create a JWT token for the user that expires in 1 hour
+    const token = jwt.sign({ sub: user_id }, jwtSecret, { expiresIn: "1h" });
+
+    // Initialize the Supabase client with the JWT token
+    const supabase = createClient(
+      // These details can be found in your Supabase project settings under `Data API`
+      process.env.SUPABASE_URL as string,
+      process.env.SUPABASE_ANON_KEY as string,
+      {
+        global: {
+          headers: {
+            Authorization: `Bearer ${token}`,
+          },
+        },
+      }
+    );
+// The rest of your task code
+```
+
+Using JWTs to authenticate Supabase operations is more secure than using service role keys because it respects Row Level Security policies, maintains user-specific audit trails, and follows the principle of least privileged access.
+
+### 2. Using Service Role Key (For Admin-Level Access)
+
+<Warning>
+  The service role key has unlimited access and bypasses all security checks. Only use it when you
+  need admin-level privileges, and never expose it client-side.
+</Warning>
+
+This example code creates a Supabase client with admin-level privileges using a service role key, bypassing all Row Level Security policies to allow unrestricted database access.
+
+```ts
+// Create a single Supabase client for interacting with your database
+// 'Database' supplies the type definitions to supabase-js
+const supabase = createClient<Database>(
+  // These details can be found in your Supabase project settings under `API`
+  process.env.SUPABASE_PROJECT_URL as string, // e.g. https://abc123.supabase.co - replace 'abc123' with your project ID
+  process.env.SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY as string // Your service role secret key
+);
+
+// Your task
+```
