10/27/2021, 4:55 PMwe are building a chat functionality in our app but our realtime subscription is not working. We store our chats in a table called "messages". Here is the code that we are using.
let chatSubscription = supabase
.from('messages')
.on('INSERT', payload => {
console.log('Change received!', payload)
})
.subscribe()
The above code is never called when we insert new messages. We do have the realtime replication enabled for the table.
Any help will be appreciated. Thanks.

10/27/2021, 8:50 PMDoes the network websocket request go out for the subscribe? In other words is that code actually running? You can also put a console.log in your subscribe function (status)=>console.log(status) to see if there was an error.

I did not check the network websocket request. I will check that too.

10/31/2021, 1:39 AMI did the (status)=>console.log(status) and it logs "SUBSCRIBED" so I guess it does subscribed. I also checked the Websockets and I see the log there.
However, when I INSERT a new record, I still don't get any payload back.
