This transformation 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.
Requirements
Using this requires either PostHog Cloud with the data pipeline add-on, or a self-hosted PostHog instance running version 1.30.0 or later.
Self-hosting and not running 1.30.0? Find out how to update your self-hosted PostHog deployment.
Installation
- In PostHog, click the "Data pipeline" tab in the left sidebar.
- Search for 'URL query parameter converter' and select the transformation, press Install.
- Configure the transformation to whitelist the parameters you want to turn into events.
That's it!
