Linking Aha! as a source
This source is currently in alpha. The interface and available tables may change.
The Aha! connector syncs your product roadmap data into the PostHog Data warehouse, so you can analyze your planning and delivery workflows alongside your product data.
Prerequisites
You need an Aha! account with permission to create an API key. The key inherits your account permissions, so it can read every record you can see.
Adding a data source
- In PostHog, go to the Sources tab of the data pipeline section.
- Click + New source and click Link next to this source.
- Enter your credentials (see Configuration below) and click Next.
- 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 Aha!, you'll need:
- Account domain – the first part of your Aha! account host. For
yourcompany.aha.io, enteryourcompany. - API key – create one under Settings → Personal → Developer → API keys in your Aha! account.
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_attimestamp). 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 for a full explanation of how each mode works and how to choose between them.

Troubleshooting
- If you see an authentication error, your API key is invalid or has been revoked. Create a new key in your Aha! account settings, then reconnect.
- If you see a permissions error, the key is missing the access needed to sync this data. Check the key's account permissions, then reconnect.
If your sync is failing or data looks wrong, see the Data warehouse troubleshooting guide. If that doesn't help, contact support – we're happy to help.
