How Zapier works
Zapier makes it easy to integrate Google BigQuery with PostHog - no code necessary. See how you can get setup in minutes.
Choose a trigger
A trigger is the event that starts your Zap—like a "Query Job Completed (With Row Data)" from Google BigQuery.
Add your action
An action happens after the trigger—such as "Capture Event" in PostHog.
You’re connected!
Zapier seamlessly connects Google BigQuery and PostHog, automating your workflow.
Supported triggers and actions
Zapier helps you create workflows that connect your apps to automate repetitive tasks. A trigger is an event that starts a workflow, and an action is an event a Zap performs.

Frequently Asked Questions about Google BigQuery + PostHog integrations
New to automation with Zapier? You're not alone. Here are some answers to common questions about how Zapier works with Google BigQuery and PostHog
How do I set up the integration between Google BigQuery and PostHog?
To set up the integration, you'll need to authenticate both your Google BigQuery and PostHog accounts within our platform. Once authenticated, create a new project where you specify triggers in PostHog that will send data to a corresponding dataset and table in Google BigQuery.
What triggers in PostHog can initiate data transfer to Google BigQuery?
In PostHog, you can use event capture as a trigger to initiate data transfer. This means whenever specific events are captured by PostHog, they will automatically be transferred to Google BigQuery according to the mapping set up in your integration.
Can I filter events before they are sent from PostHog to Google BigQuery?
Yes, you can apply filters within our integration settings. You can select specific event types or properties so that only relevant data gets transferred from PostHog to your table in Google BigQuery.
How often is data transferred from PostHog to Google BigQuery?
Data is transferred from PostHog to Google BigQuery in real-time. However, depending on your service plan and settings, there may be slight delays during high traffic periods.
Is it possible to send historical data from PostHog to Google BigQuery?
Yes, you can send historical data by configuring an initial bulk import during setup. Specify the time range for which you'd like past events transferred into your designated table in Google BigQuery.
What should I do if data is not appearing in my specified table in Google BigQuery?
First, ensure that your trigger conditions in PostHog are correctly configured and match expected events. Check our integration logs for any errors during transmission and verify that permissions for your tables in Google BigQuery are set appropriately.
Are there any limitations on the type of data that can be sent from PostHog to Google BigQuery?
Currently, we support most standard event properties including numeric values, strings, timestamps, and JSON objects. Ensure that custom event properties don't exceed character limits or other constraints defined by both platforms.
