PostHog API integration with managed authentication. Product analytics, feature flags, session recordings, experiments, and more.

Use this skill when users want to query analytics events, manage feature flags, analyze user behavior, view session recordings, or run A/B experiments.

For other third party apps, use the api-gateway skill (https://clawhub.ai/byungkyu/api-gateway).

# PostHog

Access the PostHog API with managed authentication. Query product analytics events with HogQL, manage feature flags, analyze user behavior, view session recordings, and run A/B experiments.

Quick Start

# List projects
python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/posthog/api/projects/')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Base URL

https://gateway.maton.ai/posthog/{native-api-path}

Replace `{native-api-path}` with the actual PostHog API endpoint path. The gateway proxies requests to `{subdomain}.posthog.com` and automatically injects your credentials.

Authentication

All requests require the Maton API key in the Authorization header:

Authorization: Bearer $MATON_API_KEY

**Environment Variable:** Set your API key as `MATON_API_KEY`:

export MATON_API_KEY="YOUR_API_KEY"

Getting Your API Key

1. Sign in or create an account at [maton.ai](https://maton.ai)

2. Go to [maton.ai/settings](https://maton.ai/settings)

3. Copy your API key

Connection Management

Manage your PostHog OAuth connections at `https://ctrl.maton.ai`.

List Connections

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections?app=posthog&status=ACTIVE')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Create Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
data = json.dumps({'app': 'posthog'}).encode()
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections', data=data, method='POST')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Content-Type', 'application/json')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Get Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

**Response:**

{
  "connection": {
    "connection_id": "ce2b0840-4e39-4b58-b607-7290fa7a3595",
    "status": "ACTIVE",
    "creation_time": "2026-02-23T09:37:57.686121Z",
    "last_updated_time": "2026-02-23T09:39:11.851118Z",
    "url": "https://connect.maton.ai/?session_token=...",
    "app": "posthog",
    "metadata": {}
  }
}

Open the returned `url` in a browser to complete OAuth authorization.

Delete Connection

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://ctrl.maton.ai/connections/{connection_id}', method='DELETE')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

Specifying Connection

If you have multiple PostHog connections, specify which one to use with the `Maton-Connection` header:

python <<'EOF'
import urllib.request, os, json
req = urllib.request.Request('https://gateway.maton.ai/posthog/api/projects/')
req.add_header('Authorization', f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}')
req.add_header('Maton-Connection', 'ce2b0840-4e39-4b58-b607-7290fa7a3595')
print(json.dumps(json.load(urllib.request.urlopen(req)), indent=2))
EOF

If omitted, the gateway uses the default (oldest) active connection.

Pagination

PostHog uses offset-based pagination:

GET /posthog/api/projects/{project_id}/persons/?limit=10&offset=20

Response includes pagination info:

{
  "count": 100,
  "next": "https://us.posthog.com/api/projects/{project_id}/persons/?limit=10&offset=30",
  "previous": "https://us.posthog.com/api/projects/{project_id}/persons/?limit=10&offset=10",
  "results": [...]
}

For session recordings, use `has_next` boolean:

{
  "results": [...],
  "has_next": true
}

Code Examples

JavaScript

const response = await fetch(
  'https://gateway.maton.ai/posthog/api/projects/',
  {
    headers: {
      'Authorization': `Bearer ${process.env.MATON_API_KEY}`
    }
  }
);
const data = await response.json();

Python

import os
import requests

response = requests.get(
    'https://gateway.maton.ai/posthog/api/projects/',
    headers={'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}'}
)
data = response.json()

Python - HogQL Query

import os
import requests

response = requests.post(
    'https://gateway.maton.ai/posthog/api/projects/@current/query/',
    headers={
        'Authorization': f'Bearer {os.environ["MATON_API_KEY"]}',
        'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
    json={
        'query': {
            'kind': 'HogQLQuery',
            'query': 'SELECT event, count() FROM events GROUP BY event LIMIT 10'
        }
    }
)
data = response.json()

Notes

Use `@current` as a shortcut for the current project ID (e.g., `/api/projects/@current/dashboards/`)

Project IDs are integers (e.g., `136209`)

Person UUIDs are in standard UUID format

The Events endpoint is deprecated; use the Query endpoint with HogQL instead

Session recordings include activity metrics like click_count, keypress_count

PostHog uses soft delete: use `PATCH` with `{"deleted": true}` instead of HTTP DELETE

IMPORTANT: When piping curl output to `jq` or other commands, environment variables like `$MATON_API_KEY` may not expand correctly in some shell environments. Use Python examples instead.

Error Handling
