 - Log into the [Supabase](https://supabase.io/) dashboard and go to your project, or create a new one.
 - Check if logical replication is enabled. This should be the default setting, so you shouldn't have to change anything. You can do this in the `SQL Editor` section on the left hand side of the Supabase dashboard by running `SHOW wal_level;` query, which should log `logical`.

+
+### HTTP APIs
+
+Instead of using the CLI, you can use the HTTP APIs directly. All requests use the following base URL:
+
+- `https://basin.tableland.xyz`
+
+#### Create a vault
+
+`POST /vaults/{vault_id}`
+
+- Note: the `vault_id` must contain a namespace and identifier, separated by a `.`—such as `test_vault.data`.
+
+Params:
+
+- `account` (required)
+- `cache` (optional)
+
+**Examples**
+
+**Without cache**
+
+```bash
+curl --data 'account=0x78C61e68f9f985C43e36dD5ced3f5a24aD0c503e' \
+'https://basin.tableland.xyz/vaults/test_vault.data'
+```
+
+**With cache (in minutes)**
+
+```bash
+curl --data 'account=0x78C61e68f9f985C43e36dD5ced3f5a24aD0c503e&cache=10' \
+'https://basin.tableland.xyz/vaults/test_vault.data'
+```
+
+#### Write files
+
+`POST /vaults/{vault_id}/events`
+
+Headers:
+
+- `filename`: The name to store the file as.
+
+Params:
+
+- `signature` (required): hex encoded keccak hash of the event
+- `timestamp` (optional): unix timestamp
+
+**Examples**
+
+```bash
+curl -H "filename: data.parquet" --data-binary "@data.parquet" \
+'https://basin.tableland.xyz/vaults/test_vault.data/event?timestamp=1708987192&signature=a4cb49a595988e2a3b20e6ee468d50a8d3c3cb01a278754c07efda3a89a7e60527545deb512204b034100d6d6b9d169a2d22f5e6286c9c0272e8dc920981941a00'
+```
+
+Note about implementation:
+
+- In this example, the `timestamp` and `signature` are query parameters.
+- You **must sign the event before sending**. For example, you can use CLI's `sign` command to get the signature string needed in the request above:
+  ```
+  vaults sign --private-key 0x1234abcd /path/to/file
+  ```
+
+#### Listing vaults
+
+`GET /vaults?account={address}`
+
+**Examples**
+
+```bash
+curl 'https://basin.tableland.xyz/vaults?account=0x78C61e68f9f985C43e36dD5ced3f5a24aD0c503e'
+```
+
+#### List events
+
+`GET /vaults/{vault_id}/events`
+
+It supports the `limit`, `offset`, `before` and `after` as optional params.
+
+**Examples**
+
+```bash
+curl 'https://basin.tableland.xyz/vaults/cache_long.test/events'
+```
+
+- Note: the default value for `limit` is `10`, so be sure to request more events or filter with `before` or `after`, in case there are more than 10 events in a vault.
+
+#### Retrieving data
+
+`GET /events/{event_id}`
+
+**Examples**
+
+```bash
+curl 'https://basin.tableland.xyz/events/bafkreibq2xwn6xejhdemvoqqjzvbns5agqob4f2zhegutshbzpz6zyemv4' -o data.parquet
 ```
 
+> Currently, this endpoint can **only download data from the cache**.
+>
+> If the cache has expired (or was never set), nothing will be downloaded via the HTTP API. Only the CLI `retrieve` command is able to retrieve a non-cached file directly from IPFS/Filecoin. We’re working to implement ways to make the HTTP API as seamless as the CLI flow.
