This app automatically converts URL query parameters for specific terms into event properties in PostHog, enabling you to analyse them like any other data point. This can be useful for seeing how your product or content converts based on search terms.

This app requires either PostHog Cloud with the data pipeline add-on, or a self-hosted PostHog instance running version 1.30.0 or later.

  1. In PostHog, click the "Data pipeline" tab in the left sidebar.
