PostHog Core Workflow A — Product Analytics

Primary PostHog workflow covering event capture, user identification, group analytics, and person properties. This is the foundation for all PostHog analytics: capturing what users do, linking events to identified users, and grouping users by company/team for B2B analytics.

Prerequisites

• Completed posthog-install-auth setup
• posthog-js (browser) and/or posthog-node (server) installed
• Project API key (phc_...) configured

Instructions

Step 1: Define Event Taxonomy

// src/analytics/events.ts
// Define all events as typed constants for consistency
export const EVENTS = {
  // User lifecycle
  USER_SIGNED_UP: 'user_signed_up',
  USER_LOGGED_IN: 'user_logged_in',
  USER_ONBOARDING_COMPLETED: 'user_onboarding_completed',

  // Core product actions
  FEATURE_USED: 'feature_used',
  ITEM_CREATED: 'item_created',
  ITEM_UPDATED: 'item_updated',
  ITEM_DELETED: 'item_deleted',
  SEARCH_PERFORMED: 'search_performed',
  EXPORT_COMPLETED: 'export_completed',

  // Revenue events
  SUBSCRIPTION_STARTED: 'subscription_started',
  SUBSCRIPTION_UPGRADED: 'subscription_upgraded',
  SUBSCRIPTION_CANCELED: 'subscription_canceled',
  PAYMENT_COMPLETED: 'payment_completed',
}  ;
