**Beta release**

This source is currently in **beta**. It works end to end, but you may still hit rough edges. [Let us know](https://us.posthog.com/#panel=support%3Asupport%3Adata_warehouse%3A%3Atrue) if you do.

The Secoda connector pulls your data catalog metadata — tables, columns, collections, users, groups, and tags — into the PostHog data warehouse.

## Adding a data source

1.  Go to the [sources tab](https://app.posthog.com/data-management/sources) of the data pipeline section in PostHog.
2.  Click **\+ New source** and then click **Link** next to Secoda.
3.  You need an API key from Secoda. Create one from [Settings > API](https://app.secoda.co/settings/api) in your Secoda workspace. Copy the key value.
4.  Back in PostHog, paste the key in the `API key` field and click **Next**.
5.  Select the tables you want to sync, set the sync method and frequency, then click **Import**.

Once the syncs are complete, you can start using Secoda data in PostHog.

## Available tables

| Table | Description | Sync method |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `tables` | Tables catalogued in Secoda from connected data integrations | Full refresh |
| `columns` | Columns belonging to catalogued tables in Secoda | Full refresh |
| `collections` | Collections used to group and organise resources in Secoda | Full refresh |
| `users` | Users in the Secoda workspace | Full refresh |
| `groups` | User groups (teams) in the Secoda workspace | Full refresh |
| `tags` | Tags used to label and categorise resources in Secoda | Full refresh |

**Incremental** tables sync only new or updated records on each run. **Full refresh** tables reload all data on each sync.

## Sync limitations

All Secoda tables are full refresh only. Secoda's list endpoints do not support server-side timestamp filtering (only exact, contains, and in operators), so there is no cursor to advance an incremental sync.

## Configuration

| Option | Type | Required |

| `API key` | password | Yes |
