PostHog
Set up the PostHog connector in AccessLayer.
PostHog is a product analytics platform for event tracking, feature flags, session replay, experimentation, and data warehouse use cases.
In AccessLayer, the PostHog connector lets you query project data, analytics endpoints, and related metadata for reporting and operational analysis.
Before you start
You will need PostHog API credentials for the project and region you want to query.
Before you begin, make sure you have:
- A PostHog personal API key
- Your PostHog project ID
- The correct PostHog host for your region or deployment
For additional details, see the PostHog API documentation.
Use a personal API key
Use a personal API key for this connector. For PostHog Cloud, the host is
usually us.posthog.com or eu.posthog.com.
Generating your credentials
Create a personal API key
In PostHog, create a personal API key from your account settings and copy it for use in AccessLayer.
Find your project ID
Open the PostHog project you want to query and copy its project ID from the project settings.
Choose the correct host
Use us.posthog.com for US Cloud, eu.posthog.com for EU Cloud, or your own
self-hosted PostHog domain.
Troubleshooting
Confirm that you created a personal API key and that it belongs to a user who can access the project you want to query.
Double-check the host value. Using the wrong PostHog region or deployment host is a common cause of failed requests.
Check whether the personal API key was revoked, rotated, or replaced. If it changed, update the connector configuration in AccessLayer.
