What is OptiDev Cloud

OptiDev Cloud is a ready-to-use backend for your app. It gives you everything you need to build real applications:
  • Database - Store and organize your app’s data (user profiles, orders, messages, etc.)
  • Authentication - Let users create accounts and log in securely
  • Edge Functions - Run server-side code for things like payment processing or sending emails
  • Storage - Store files like images, documents, and videos
The best part? You don’t need to set up servers or manage infrastructure. Just activate OptiDev Cloud and start building.

​
Works with OptiDev Agent

OptiDev Agent understands OptiDev Cloud automatically. You can simply describe what you need:
  • “Create a table to store customer orders with name, email, and order total”
  • “Add user login to my app”
  • “Create an API endpoint that connects to Stripe for payments”
OptiDev Agent will create the tables, set up authentication, write the functions, and deploy everything for you.

​
Activating OptiDev Cloud

​
Step 1: Open OptiDev Cloud

In your project, click the OptiDev Cloud tab in the left sidebar (cloud icon).

​
Step 2: Choose a Region

Select a region closest to where your users are located:
RegionBest for
US East (Ohio)North America
EU Central (Frankfurt)Europe
AP Southeast (Singapore)Asia
AP Southeast (Sydney)Australia/Oceania
Choosing a closer region means faster response times for your users.

​
Step 3: Activate

Click the Activate OptiDev Cloud button. You’ll see a progress bar while your backend is being set up. This usually takes 1-2 minutes. When complete, you’ll see a green Active badge and the dashboard will load.
Once activated, OptiDev Cloud is ready to use immediately. OptiDev Agent can start creating tables and functions right away.

​
The OptiDev Cloud Dashboard

After activation, you’ll see several tabs for managing your backend:

​
Connection Info

Shows your API credentials:
  • API URL - The web address for your backend
  • Publishable Key - Safe to use in your app’s frontend code
  • Database Connection - Click “Connect” to see connection details for database tools
Click the copy icon next to any value to copy it to your clipboard.

​
Database

Browse and query your data:
  • See all your tables in the left sidebar
  • Click a table to view its data
  • Run SQL queries in the editor
  • Export data as CSV, JSON, or Excel

​
Auth

Manage user authentication:
  • Enable/disable sign-in methods (Email, Phone, Google)
  • View registered users
  • Configure signup settings

​
Edge Functions

Manage your server-side code:
  • See deployed functions
  • View execution logs
  • Test functions directly

​
Using OptiDev Agent with OptiDev Cloud

The easiest way to work with OptiDev Cloud is through OptiDev Agent. Just describe what you need in plain language.

​
Creating Tables

Tell OptiDev Agent what data you want to store:
“Create a products table with name, description, price, and image URL”
OptiDev Agent will:
  1. Create the table with the right column types
  2. Set up the database schema
  3. Show you the table in your dashboard

​
Adding Authentication

Ask OptiDev Agent to add login:
“Add user authentication to my app with email and Google sign-in”
OptiDev Agent will:
  1. Enable the auth providers
  2. Add sign-in forms to your app
  3. Connect everything together

​
Creating API Endpoints

Describe the functionality you need:
“Create an API endpoint that accepts payment with Stripe and saves the order to the database”
OptiDev Agent will:
  1. Create an Edge Function with the Stripe integration
  2. Deploy it to OptiDev Cloud
  3. Connect it to your frontend

​
Checking Your Data

​
Viewing Tables

  1. Go to the Database tab
  2. Click any table name in the left sidebar
  3. Browse rows using the pagination controls at the bottom

​
Editing Data

  • Double-click any cell to edit it
  • Press Enter to save or Escape to cancel
  • Click Add Row to create a new entry

​
Running Queries

Type SQL in the editor to search or analyze your data: 
SELECT * FROM orders WHERE total > 100
Click Execute Query to see results.

​
Viewing Users

  1. Go to the Auth tab
  2. You’ll see the sign-in methods configuration
  3. Registered users appear in the users list
From here you can see:
  • Email addresses
  • When users signed up
  • Last sign-in time
  • Auth provider used (email, phone, or Google)

​
Monitoring Edge Functions

​
Viewing Deployed Functions

  1. Go to the Edge Functions tab
  2. Deployed Functions shows all functions running on OptiDev Cloud
  3. Each function shows its name, version, and last update time

​
Function Details

Click View Details on any function to see:
  • Function URL (for calling from your app)
  • Execution history
  • Recent invocations

​
Testing Functions

  1. Click Test next to any deployed function
  2. Choose the HTTP method (GET, POST, etc.)
  3. Add any data your function expects
  4. Click Send Request to see the response
This is useful for debugging before connecting to your app.

​
For Developers

​
Environment Variables

When you activate OptiDev Cloud, these environment variables are automatically added to your project’s .env.local:
  • VITE_SUPABASE_URL - Your API endpoint
  • VITE_SUPABASE_PUBLISHABLE_KEY - Your public API key

​
Supabase Client

OptiDev Cloud is built on Supabase. You can use the Supabase JavaScript client directly:
npm install @supabase/supabase-js
A pre-configured client is created at src/lib/supabaseClient.ts when you activate OptiDev Cloud.

​
Database Connection

The connection string uses session pooler (port 5432) for full PostgreSQL compatibility. Use it with any PostgreSQL client or ORM.

​
Edge Functions Runtime

Functions run on Deno with TypeScript support. Access secrets via Deno.env.get('SECRET_NAME').
