PostHog lets you track how users interact with your app — clicks, screens visited, features used — to help you improve the experience. Here’s how to connect it in a few minutes.
Step 1: Create or Log In to Your PostHog Account
- Go to https://posthog.com
- Click “Get started” or “Sign in”
- Follow the steps to set up your project (name, team, basic preferences)
If you already have a PostHog account, simply log in and select your project.
Step 2: Find Your API Key (Project API Key)
- From the main dashboard, go to Project Settings
- Scroll down to the Project API Key section
- Copy the key (it usually starts with
phc_)
This key is used to identify your app when sending analytics events.
Step 3: Paste the Key in Your App Dashboard
- Go to your App Dashboard on our platform
- Open the Analytics or Integrations section
- Paste the Project API Key into the field for PostHog
- Save your changes
That’s it — event tracking is now active, and you’ll start seeing data appear in your PostHog dashboard within minutes.
🧪 Want to Test Tracking?
You can test that tracking works by:
- Opening your app and clicking around (pages, buttons, etc.)
- Returning to your PostHog Dashboard → Events
- You should see live events show up almost instantly
You don’t need a separate “test key” — PostHog separates environments by project, so feel free to create a second test project if needed.
