Linking Braze as a source

Alpha release

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

The Braze connector syncs your Braze data — campaigns, canvases, segments, events, and templates — into the PostHog data warehouse.

Adding a data source

  1. Go to the sources tab of the data pipeline section in PostHog.
  2. Click + New source and then click Link next to Braze.
  3. You need a REST API key and your REST endpoint URL from Braze. In your Braze dashboard, go to Settings → API Keys and create a REST API key. Grant the following endpoint permissions for the data you want to sync: campaigns.list, canvas.list, segments.list, events.list, templates.email.list, and content_blocks.list. Your REST endpoint URL (for example https://rest.iad-01.braze.com) must match your Braze dashboard's region — see Braze's API overview for the full list of endpoints.
  4. Back in PostHog, enter your REST API key and REST endpoint URL, then 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 Braze data in PostHog.

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

Sync limitations

Only the email templates and content blocks tables support incremental sync, using Braze's server-side modified_after filter. The remaining tables are full refresh only, as Braze does not provide a reliable server-side timestamp filter for them.
