New York Times
Let AI connect your sources for you
Skip the manual setup — run this in your project and the wizard auto-detects your databases and APIs and connects them to PostHog.
Connect New York Times to PostHog to sync your data into the PostHog data warehouse for analysis and modeling.
Enter your New York Times API key to pull New York Times content into the PostHog Data warehouse.
Create a free developer account and register an app at the NYT Developer Network, then enable the APIs you want to sync (Article Search, Most Popular, Top Stories) on your app to get an API key.
Note: NYT enforces tight rate limits (≈10 requests/minute, 4,000/day), so syncs — especially Article Search — are intentionally throttled.
