What does it do?

Data Pipelines moves data from one place to another seamlessly. Bring revenue and CRM data from tools like Stripe and HubSpot into PostHog, change events as they arrive, and send them to Slack, your CRM, or your warehouse.

Export your PostHog data (events, persons, sessions, and groups) to an external tool. Use your data to feed the rest of PostHog, or to move data between systems that never touch PostHog at all.

Top features

Import data from hundreds of tools and databases

Give PostHog your credentials and it handles extract and load. Query the data next to your product data, or write it straight to your own database.

Managed sources

Stripe, HubSpot, Salesforce, Zendesk, Postgres, MySQL, BigQuery, and many more.

Incremental and CDC

Sync only the rows that changed, or stream row-level changes from Postgres.

Files and webhooks

Upload CSV, JSON, or Parquet, read files in S3, GCS, R2, or Azure Blob, or push data in with a webhook.

Write anywhere

Land synced data in PostHog, or in your own Postgres, Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, Databricks, or S3.
