Lovable Supabase Auth Not Working
Quick Answer
Lovable can generate the auth UI correctly while the actual Supabase auth settings, redirect URLs, or session handling remain mismatched. Start with "Check Supabase auth provider settings" before making broader code changes.

- !Users cannot sign in even though the form looks correct
- !Auth redirects back to login
- !Supabase is connected but sessions are missing
Why this happens
Lovable can generate the auth UI correctly while the actual Supabase auth settings, redirect URLs, or session handling remain mismatched.
Fix
Check Supabase auth provider settings
Open Supabase Authentication and verify your site URL, redirect URLs, and enabled providers match the deployed domain exactly.
Verify production environment variables
Make sure the deployed app has the correct NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_URL and NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_ANON_KEY. One wrong value breaks the whole auth flow.
Tell Lovable to add a real loading/session check
Ask Lovable to wait for the auth state before redirecting so the app does not treat a still-loading session as logged out.
Prevent this next time
Auth bugs are usually configuration bugs. Verify redirect URLs and env vars before rewriting components.
Frequently Asked Questions
Mismatched redirect URLs between Supabase and the deployed domain are one of the most common causes.
Yes. The form can render perfectly while the actual session or redirect flow fails behind the scenes.
