2. Click **New catalog**

3. Select **Supabase** as the engine

4. Fill in the connection details:

   - **Host**: The hostname or IP address of your Supabase server
   - **Port**: The port number (default: 5432)
   - **Database**: The name of the database to connect to
   - **Schema** (optional): The name of the schema to connect to
   - **Username**: Your Supabase username
   - **Password**: Your Supabase password

Once added, you can start querying your Supabase data through Altertable's SQL engine.

## Caveats

You will need to use **Transaction Pooler** connection method. Direct connection and session pooler methods don't work with Altertable for now.
