PostHog
Connect PostHog to sync event data and session analytics into Fload. Supports both PostHog Cloud and self-hosted instances.
What it syncs
| Data | Description |
|---|---|
| Events | User events with properties and timestamps |
| Session analytics | Session count, duration, and bounce rate (computed from events) |
| User properties | Person profiles and cohort memberships |
Setup
- In Fload, go to Connectors > Add connector > PostHog
- In your PostHog instance, go to Settings > Project > Project API Key
- Copy your Project API Key
- Copy your Project ID (numeric) from Settings > Project > General
- Enter your Host URL:
- PostHog Cloud US:
https://us.posthog.com - PostHog Cloud EU:
https://eu.posthog.com - Self-hosted: your custom URL (e.g.,
https://posthog.yourcompany.com)
- Paste the API key, Project ID, and host URL into Fload and click Connect
Self-hosted support
Fload fully supports self-hosted PostHog instances. Just provide your custom host URL during setup. Ensure your PostHog instance is accessible from Fload's servers (allow-list the IP range shown during setup if needed).
What features this enables
- Event and session data in your asset dashboard
- AI chat — "what's my DAU?" "what's the average session duration?"
- Growth Audit Agent uses PostHog data for engagement scoring
- Anomaly detection on event volumes and session metrics
- Orchestrator Agent correlates event changes with metric shifts
Notes
- Data is synced every hour
- Historical data is backfilled for the last 90 days on initial connection
- Fload reads event data only — it does not modify your PostHog instance
- Session analytics (count, duration, bounce rate) are computed from events, not from the recordings API
