PostHog

🚀 Quickstart

Connect to PostHog with Nango and see data flow in 2 minutes.

Create an integration

In Nango (free signup), go to Integrations -> Configure New Integration -> PostHog.

Authorize PostHog

Go to Connections -> Add Test Connection -> Authorize, then enter your Subdomain (e.g. us or eu.i) and API Key. Later, you’ll let your users do the same directly from your app.

Call the PostHog API

Let’s make your first request to the PostHog API (get current user). Replace the placeholders below with your Environment API key, integration ID, and connection ID:

cURL
Node

curl "https://api.nango.dev/proxy/api/users/@me" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <NANGO-API-KEY>" \
  -H "Provider-Config-Key: <INTEGRATION-ID>" \
  -H "Connection-Id: <CONNECTION-ID>"

Install Nango’s backend SDK with npm i @nangohq/node. Then run:

import { Nango } from '@nangohq/node';

const nango = new Nango({ apiKey: '<NANGO-API-KEY>' });

const response = await nango.get({
    endpoint: '/api/users/@me',
    providerConfigKey: '<INTEGRATION-ID>',
    connectionId: '<CONNECTION-ID>'
});

console.log(response.data);

Or fetch credentials dynamically via the Node SDK or API.✅ You’re connected! Check the Logs tab in Nango to inspect requests.

Implement Nango in your app

Follow our Auth implementation guide to integrate Nango in your app.To obtain your own credentials (subdomain and API key), follow the connect guide linked below.

Nango-maintained guides for common use cases.

How do I link my PostHog account?
Connect your PostHog account using the Connect UI (subdomain and API key)

Subdomain: Use the part of your PostHog URL after https:// and before .posthog.com (e.g. us, eu.i for US/EU Cloud). PostHog enforces different rate limits per resource.

Only need to send events, not read data? Use the PostHog (Capture API) integration instead — it authenticates with a public Project Token instead of a personal API key, and doesn’t require a logged-in PostHog user (events still need a distinct_id).
