Transfer edge functions from one project to another

Last edited: 1/28/2026

This guide shows how you can transfer your Edge Functions from one project to another using the Supabase CLI or the Supabase Dashboard.

Pre-requisites

To follow through this guide, you need the following:

  • You must have the right access privileges to both the source and target project
  • You must have installed the Supabase CLI tool
  • Both source and target projects must be active

Steps (using the Supabase CLI):

  1. Login to your Supabase account (the account with the functions) using your terminal
1
supabase login

This should open up a web page with an access code. Copy the code, paste it in your terminal, and hit enter.

  1. List all Edge Functions by running the following command
1
supabase functions list --project-ref your_project_ref
  1. Download the function
1
supabase functions download function_name --project-ref your_project_ref

Repeat this step to download multiple functions.

This downloads the function(s) into supabase/functions. You can view the downloaded function(s) by running

1
ls supabase/functions
  1. Link to the target project
1
supabase link --project-ref your_target_project_ref
  1. Deploy function(s) to target project
1
supabase functions deploy --project-ref your_target_project_ref

This deploys all functions within the supabase/functions to the target project. You can confirm by checking your Edge Functions on the project dashboard

Steps (using the Supabase Dashboard):

  1. In the source project, navigate to Edge Functions from the side menu

  2. Using the Download button, download your desired function as zip: Download Edge Function

  3. In the target project, navigate to Edge Functions from the side menu

  4. Click on the Deploy a new function button, select Via Editor operation

  5. Drag and drop your downloaded function (the zip function from step 2) into the editor

  6. Add your function name and click on the Deploy function button to deploy the function:

Upload Edge Function

With this, you can transfer your edge functions between your Supabase projects.
