How do I connect PostHog to Big Query with Catchr?

Add PostHog as a source in Catchr, enter the API key and instance base URL, choose Big Query as the destination, and authorize the target Google Cloud project and dataset.

What PostHog data can I export to Big Query?

You can export raw PostHog event rows with the connector’s available fields, including a Records row counter, UTM Campaign, Date, Hour of the day, Week, Month, Quarter, and Year dimensions.

Can I export PostHog data from US, EU, or self-hosted instances to Big Query?

Yes. Catchr requires the explicit base URL for your PostHog instance, allowing the connector to work with US, EU, and self-hosted deployments.

How can I analyze PostHog events over time in Big Query?

Use the exported Date, Hour, Week, Month, Quarter, and Year dimensions to group event rows into reporting periods and compare activity across campaigns or time ranges.

Can I combine PostHog data with other marketing sources in Big Query?

Yes. Keep PostHog and other sources in separate Big Query tables, then use SQL views or models to join compatible fields such as date or UTM campaign for broader marketing reporting.

Can the table be partitioned by date?

If your selected schema contains an eligible date field, you can configure that field as the optional date partition for the destination table. Catchr does not configure table clustering or design your downstream analytical models.

Can Catchr backfill history into BigQuery?


Yes. Configure the historical period supported by the source for the initial import, then keep the table updated with recurring exports. The available range is determined by the source API and the settings of your job, not an unlimited-history promise.
