PostHog to PostgreSQL Integration
AI-first ETL from PostHog into PostgreSQL. Governed entities, incremental sync, typed landing tables.
How Datrise loads PostHog into PostgreSQL
Datrise syncs PostHog's events, persons, sessions, feature flags, cohorts, and insights into PostgreSQL as a typed table per source entity. Flexible or custom fields land in jsonb columns, and timestamps such as created, updated, and status changes are typed as timestamptz.
Sync is incremental: Datrise uses a watermark on each entity's updated-at, applied with INSERT … ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE, so re-runs update only what changed. Optional declarative range partitioning by load date for high-volume tables. PostgreSQL folds unquoted identifiers to lowercase, so Datrise normalizes mixed-case source fields to snake_case.
Ideal for operational analytics and application backends that need fresh, queryable copies of your data.
Endpoints
PostHog: Product analytics with session replay and flags.
PostgreSQL: Open-source relational database with strong SQL and extensions.
How PostHog entities map to PostgreSQL
| PostHog entity | PostgreSQL object | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| events | posthog_events | timestamptz events |
| persons | posthog_persons | id PK · linked to posthog_events |
| sessions | posthog_sessions | id PK · linked to posthog_events |
| feature flags | posthog_feature_flags | id PK · linked to posthog_events |
FAQ
How does Datrise handle PostHog's custom fields in PostgreSQL?
Flexible values are stored as jsonb columns, so new fields don't require a migration; strongly-typed fields — dates, numbers, and references — are promoted to native PostgreSQL types.
How does the PostHog to PostgreSQL sync stay up to date?
It runs incrementally — Datrise uses a watermark on each entity's updated-at, applied with INSERT … ON CONFLICT DO UPDATE.
