Question

Is it safe to paste my database URL into Cursor's chat?

Solved · 4 views · asked by rosa_m · edited

Cursor asked for the connection string to 'help debug'.

What I’ve tried

Did not paste it yet. Searched here and in the docs, found nothing that matched my case.

The URL contains your database password. Treat it like the password. Give Cursor the schema (\d+) and error messages, never the credentials. If you already pasted it once, rotate the database password today; it's one click in the Supabase dashboard.
