Using API key

To configure this credential, you'll need:

  • On EU Cloud, use https://eu.i.posthog.com for public POST-only endpoints or https://eu.posthog.com for private endpoints.
  • For self-hosted instances, use your self-hosted domain.
  • Confirm yours by checking your PostHog instance URL.
• An API Key: The API key you use depends on whether you're accessing public or private endpoints:
  • For public POST-only endpoints, use a Project API key from your project's General Settings.
  • For private endpoints, use a Personal API key from your User account's Personal API Keys Settings. Refer to How to obtain a personal API key{:target=_blank .external-link} for more information.
