Abstract
The Supernova X-Ray Database (SNaX) was established a few years ago to make X-ray data on supernovae (SNe) publicly available via an elegant searchable web interface. The database has recently been updated to PhP7, had security updates done, and moved to a new server, ensuring its long-term stability. We urge astronomers to continue to download the data as needed for their work. Those with X-ray data on SNe are requested to upload it to the database via the easily fillable spreadsheet, making it accessible to everyone.

3 pages, 1 figure. Published in the Research Notes of the American Astronomical Society. Just a small reminder to astronomers to use the database for X-ray data on SNe, and to upload your data on X-ray SNe to the database
