PostHog Toolkit for Arcade
Enables LLM-powered interaction with PostHog analytics — querying events, managing feature flags, experiments, surveys, dashboards, insights, and error tracking via the PostHog API.
Capabilities
- Event & data exploration: List event definitions and properties, run HogQL queries, fetch time-series trends, funnels, and cohort retention data, and compare metrics across date ranges.
- Dashboards & insights: Create, read, update, and delete dashboards; create, pin, update, and soft-delete saved insights.
- Feature flags: Create, read, update, and soft-delete flags; control rollout rules and targeting; validate key uniqueness before creation.
- A/B experiments: Create draft experiments with linked feature flags, launch and archive them, retrieve per-variant statistical results (chance to win, credible intervals, exposures).
- Surveys: Create, read, update, archive, and list surveys; review activity logs of survey changes.
- Error tracking: List and retrieve error issues with status, severity, and assignee detail.
Secrets
This toolkit requires two secrets. Set them via the Arcade secrets dashboard or through the API.
-
POSTHOG_PERSONAL_API_KEY— A PostHog Personal API Key used to authenticate all API requests. Generate one in your PostHog account under Settings → Personal API keys (top-right user menu → Your profile → Personal API keys). The key must have access to the project(s) you intend to query. See PostHog docs on personal API keys for details on creating and scoping them. -
POSTHOG_SERVER_URL— The base URL of your PostHog instance. For PostHog Cloud US this ishttps://us.posthog.com; for EU Cloud it ishttps://eu.posthog.com; for self-hosted deployments, use your own domain (e.g.,https://posthog.example.com). This tells the toolkit which instance to route requests to.
For general guidance on configuring secrets in Arcade, see the Arcade secrets documentation.

Operations
Behavior
| Tool name | Description | Secrets | |
|---|---|---|---|
Pin an existing insight as a tile on a dashboard. | 1 | ||
Archive an experiment by ID; PostHog can restore an archived experiment.
Archiving hides the experiment from the default list and leaves its
feature flag as it is. | 1 | ||
Archive a survey by ID; PostHog can restore an archived survey. | 2 | ||
Compare the same metric across two date ranges side-by-side. | 1 | ||
Create a new empty dashboard. Insights can be pinned to it as tiles afterward. | 1 | ||
Create an A/B test experiment as a draft, with its feature flag.
The flag stays off and nobody is enrolled until the experiment is
launched. Before creating, verify the feature_flag_key is not
already used by another experiment and that the metrics' event
names exist. | 2 | ||
Create a new feature flag.
Verify the key is not already in use to avoid duplicates. After
creation, consult PostHog SDK documentation for the user's
language/framework to integrate the flag. | 1 | ||
Save a tested query as a reusable insight.
Run the query first and confirm it returns the expected results. | 1 | ||
Create a new survey.
Verify the name is not already in use to avoid duplicates. After
creation, consult PostHog SDK documentation to integrate the
survey into the user's application. | 2 | ||
Delete a dashboard by ID. This toolkit cannot restore a deleted dashboard. | 2 | ||
Soft-delete a feature flag by numeric ID or key. Provide one of flag_id or flag_key.
PostHog refuses while a running experiment or an early access
feature uses the flag; a draft, ended, or archived experiment does
not block deletion. | 1 | ||
Soft-delete an insight by ID. | 2 | ||
Get a dashboard's full configuration including all insight tiles.
Provide dashboard_id or dashboard_name. | 1 | ||
Get an error tracking issue: status, severity, name, description, first seen, assignee. | 2 | ||
Get a time-series trend for one or more events over a date range.
Returns one series per event, and one per breakdown value when a breakdown property is
set. Unknown event names return zero counts rather than errors. | 1 | ||
Get an experiment's full configuration.
Includes status, variants, rollout, and metrics. Provide either
the numeric ID or the name. | 1 | ||
Get a launched experiment's results: exposures per variant and each metric's statistics.
Each metric reports the baseline and every other variant with its
sample count, chance to win, and credible interval. A metric whose
query failed carries an error instead. | 1 | ||
Get a feature flag's full definition including rollout rules.
Provide either the numeric ID or the flag key. | 2 | ||
Build a multi-step conversion funnel with optional property breakdowns. | 1 | ||
Get an insight's full configuration and current query results.
Provide either the numeric ID or the name. | 1 | ||
Get cohort retention data showing what percentage of users return.
Shows return rates after a user's initial event. | 1 | ||
Get a survey's full configuration.
Includes questions, targeting rules, and scheduling. Provide
either the numeric ID or the name. | 2 | ||
List all dashboards in the project.
Returns summaries (id, name, pinned, tags, created_at). Use a
dashboard's ID to get its full configuration and insight tiles. | 2 | ||
List error tracking issues.
Returns each issue's id, status, severity, name, description,
first_seen, and assignee. Use an issue's id to get it on its own. | 1 | ||
List all tracked event names in the project.
This is the discovery starting point -- use it to find valid
event names, then look up an event's properties to discover
available filters and breakdowns. | 1 |
