**Alpha release**

This source is currently in **alpha**. The interface and available tables may change.

The SafetyCulture connector syncs your workplace-operations data – inspections and their answers, templates, corrective actions, issues, assets, users, groups, sites, and schedules – into the PostHog data warehouse, so you can analyze your safety and operations workflows alongside your product data.

## Prerequisites

You need a SafetyCulture account on a **Premium or Enterprise plan** with permission to create an API token. Data feed access follows the token owner's permissions, so SafetyCulture recommends granting the **Data Access** permission for warehouse integrations.

## Adding a data source

1.  In PostHog, go to the [Sources tab](https://app.posthog.com/data-management/sources) of the data pipeline section.
2.  Click **\+ New source** and click **Link** next to this source.
3.  Enter your credentials (see [Configuration](#configuration) below) and click **Next**.
4.  Select the tables you want to sync, choose a sync method and frequency, then click **Import**.

Once the syncs are complete, you can start querying this data in PostHog.

When linking SafetyCulture, you'll need:

-   **API token** – generate one under **Account settings → Integrations → Manage API tokens** in [SafetyCulture](https://app.safetyculture.com).

API tokens expire after 30 days of inactivity, so SafetyCulture recommends a [service user](https://help.safetyculture.com/en-US/1064186-service-users) token for long-term integrations.

## Sync modes

Each table can be synced in one of several modes, depending on what the source supports:

-   **Webhook** (when available) – the source pushes changes to PostHog in real time. Fastest freshness, lowest ongoing cost, and the only mode that reliably captures updates and deletes.
-   **Incremental** – only new or updated rows are synced on each run, using a cursor field (such as an `updated_at` timestamp). Cheaper than a full refresh, but deletes aren't captured.
-   **Append only** – new rows are appended using a cursor field; existing rows are never updated. Ideal for immutable, append-only tables like event logs.
-   **Full refresh** – the whole table is reloaded on every sync. Use it when a table has no reliable cursor or when you need deletions reflected.

See [sync methods](/docs/cdp/sources.md#sync-methods) for a full explanation of how each mode works and how to choose between them.

Inspections, inspection items, templates, and actions support incremental sync on `modified_at` via SafetyCulture's server-side `modified_after` filter. The other tables are full refresh only.

## Configuration

## Supported tables

| Table | Description | Sync method | Incremental field | Primary key |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |

| inspection_items | A single question/item answered within an inspection, with its response, score, and media. | Incremental, Full refresh | modified_at | — |
| templates | An inspection template that inspections are conducted from. | Incremental, Full refresh | modified_at | — |
| actions | A corrective action, optionally raised against an inspection item, with its priority, status, and assignment context. | Incremental, Full refresh | modified_at | — |
| issues | An issue reported in SafetyCulture, with its category, priority, status, and linked inspection/site. | Full refresh | — | — |
| assets | An asset tracked in SafetyCulture, with its type, custom fields, site, and state. | Full refresh | — | — |
| users | A user in your SafetyCulture organization. | Full refresh | — | — |
| groups | A user group in your SafetyCulture organization. | Full refresh | — | — |
| sites | A site (location, area, region, state, or country) in your SafetyCulture organization. | Full refresh | — | — |
| schedules | A recurring inspection schedule, with its recurrence pattern, template, and site. | Full refresh | — | — |

## Troubleshooting

-   If you see an authentication error, your API token is invalid or has expired – tokens expire after 30 days of inactivity. Generate a new token (ideally for a service user), then reconnect.
-   If you see a permissions error on a specific table, the token's user is missing access to that data feed. Grant the user the **Data Access** permission in SafetyCulture, then reconnect.

If your sync is failing or data looks wrong, see the [Data warehouse troubleshooting guide](/docs/data-warehouse/troubleshooting.md). If that doesn't help, [contact support](https://us.posthog.com/#panel=support%3Asupport%3Adata_warehouse%3A%3Atrue) – we're happy to help.
