Pricing

Currently, I'm right on the edge of choosing Convex over Supabase. Have been reading the docs for a few days. However, the lack of clarity over pricing is holding me back. Especially related to the Function calls (25M) and Action compute(250 GB-hours) in the Pro plan. As far as I know, Supabase doesn't have such restrictions in their Pro plan (unlimited requests and shared CPU without any restriction on compute hours). Upon searching Discord, I couldn't find anything meaningful about it. In fact, another user shared a similar concern a couple of days ago- "if you have 100 users in a chat room, and 100 messages are added, does it cost you 10,000 (GET) + 100 (POST) function calls usage?". Some users were discussing about it in August as well, when someone suggested a pricing structure like- https://aws.amazon.com/amplify/pricing/. In fact, for my use case, Chatgpt gave me an sample estimate of 72M calls/month (for chat, subscription, updates etc) for a decently scaled project I'm planning. However, there is no certainity about it. It is just a rough estimate. Could be more, could be less. But if true, that estimate would probably add another $100($2/M) to the monthly bill. Had a nice experience with Convex so far and would like to build here, but don't want to be surprised with the 'serverless' bills later down the road. It would be a bit hard to change the setup then. So, it would be really helpful, if someone can provide more clarity about it....

Preview Deployments and SITE_URL for Convex Auth

I'm setting up Preview Apps for Vercel and I'm not sure how I can set the correct SITE_URL (Required for Convex Auth) because the URL is based on the git branch name, essentially dynamic for each preview app. What's the recommended way to set the SITE_URL to the preview app? Otherwise, I'll need to manually set this every time. Not a big deal, but it would be cool to figure this out :).

My attempts to run `convex dev` fail to deploy code changes

When I run npx convex dev -v --tail-logs, I get output about skipped files (the usual suspects about multiple dots and stuff in convex/_generated), and a raft of Preparing convex/** messages, but that's it — no messages about deployment. Over in the dashboard, no updates in my Development deployment instance....

"New table referralOverview has IDs that conflict with existing table configColumns"

Hi, when trying to import a snapshot into a preview environment during a deploy, I get this error. Everything works fine locally when devving and then I export the snapshot directly from dev. I manually checked the ID's of configColumns against the ID's in referralOverview and there are no matches. How do I fix this?

Using gemini with openai library working in action but not http action

I followed this guide to integrate ai streaming in my convex app. But instead of using openai, I want to use gemini because of their larger context window (1M tokens for gemini-1.5-flash). I get a bad request answer just using the basic example from google docs here. However, the exact same code works in actions which I assume it is due to the fact that http action cannot run node packages? What I don't get is why it is supposed to work with openAI (cannot try as I am not located in a country where opeanai is available) but it doesn't work for gemini. But still works in actions. Any idea if there is a way to make it work? Here is the code as an example (gemini api key created via google ai studio): ```typescript const openai = new OpenAI({...
