Linking JustSift as a source

Alpha release

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

The JustSift connector syncs your organization's people directory and field definitions 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 JustSift.
  3. In JustSift, create a token in the Sift admin dashboard under API Access → New Application. Grant the token access to full people data (not photos-only).
  4. Back in PostHog, paste the token into the API token 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 JustSift data in PostHog.

Available tables

Full refresh tables reload all data on each sync.

Sync limitations

All JustSift tables are full refresh only – JustSift's list endpoints don't expose a server-side timestamp filter, so there's no incremental cursor to advance. Each sync reloads all data.
