Invitations RPC

The invitation flow allows organization admins to invite users by email. Invited users receive a token-based link to accept their invitation.

Invitation Flow

create_invitation()          → generates token, sends email
        ↓
get_invitation_details()     → landing page reads invite info (no auth required)
        ↓
accept_invitation()          → authenticated user accepts, joins org/unit

---

create_invitation(p_email, p_organization_id, p_role_id, p_unit_id?, p_metadata?)

Creates a new invitation for a user to join an organization (and optionally a unit). Returns the invitation token used to construct the acceptance link.

Signature

public.create_invitation(
  p_email           TEXT,
  p_organization_id UUID,
  p_role_id         UUID,
  p_unit_id         UUID    DEFAULT NULL,
  p_metadata        JSONB   DEFAULT '{}'
)
RETURNS TABLE (
  id         UUID,
  token      TEXT,
  email      TEXT,
  expires_at TIMESTAMPTZ
)

Usage

const { data, error } = await supabase.rpc('create_invitation', {
  p_email: 'newuser@example.com',
  p_organization_id: 'org-uuid',
  p_role_id: 'role-uuid',
  p_unit_id: 'unit-uuid'    // optional
});

// data.token is used to build the acceptance URL
const acceptUrl = `https://yourapp.com/accept-invite?token=${data[0].token}`;

---

get_invitation_details(p_token)

Returns human-readable details about an invitation from its token. No authentication is required — this function is designed for public landing pages shown to invitees before they log in.

Signature

public.get_invitation_details(p_token TEXT)
RETURNS TABLE (
  id               UUID,
  email            TEXT,
  organization_name TEXT,
  unit_name        TEXT,
  role_name        TEXT,
  invited_by_name  TEXT,
  expires_at       TIMESTAMPTZ,
  status           TEXT
)

Usage

// No auth needed — safe to call on a public landing page
const { data, error } = await supabase.rpc('get_invitation_details', {
  p_token: tokenFromUrl
});

// Check status before showing accept UI
if (data[0].status !== 'pending') {
  // show expired/cancelled message
}

---

accept_invitation(p_token)

Accepts an invitation. The caller must be authenticated. The user is added to the organization (and unit, if specified in the invitation). Returns context about what was joined.

Signature

public.accept_invitation(p_token TEXT)
RETURNS TABLE (
  organization_id   UUID,
  unit_id           UUID,
  role_id           UUID,
  organization_name TEXT
)

Usage

const { data, error } = await supabase.rpc('accept_invitation', {
  p_token: tokenFromUrl
});

---

list_invitations(p_organization_id, p_status?)

Returns invitations for an organization. Optionally filter by status.

Signature

public.list_invitations(
  p_organization_id UUID,
  p_status          TEXT DEFAULT NULL
)
RETURNS TABLE (
  id               UUID,
  email            TEXT,
  organization_id  UUID,
  unit_id          UUID,
  role_name        TEXT,
  invited_by_email TEXT,
  status           TEXT,
  expires_at       TIMESTAMPTZ,
  created_at       TIMESTAMPTZ
)

p_status values: 'pending', 'accepted', 'expired', 'cancelled'

Usage

// All invitations
const { data } = await supabase.rpc('list_invitations', {
  p_organization_id: 'org-uuid'
});

// Only pending
const { data } = await supabase.rpc('list_invitations', {
  p_organization_id: 'org-uuid',
  p_status: 'pending'
});

---

cancel_invitation(p_invitation_id)

Cancels a pending invitation. The invitation status is set to 'cancelled' and can no longer be accepted.

Signature

public.cancel_invitation(p_invitation_id UUID)
RETURNS VOID

Usage

await supabase.rpc('cancel_invitation', {
  p_invitation_id: 'invite-uuid'
});

---

resend_invitation(p_invitation_id)

Re-sends an invitation email and returns a refreshed token with a new expiry.

Signature

public.resend_invitation(p_invitation_id UUID)
RETURNS TABLE (
  id         UUID,
  token      TEXT,
  email      TEXT,
  expires_at TIMESTAMPTZ
)

Usage

const { data, error } = await supabase.rpc('resend_invitation', {
  p_invitation_id: 'invite-uuid'
});
