Linking Short.io as a source
Let AI connect your sources for you
Skip the manual setup — run this in your project and the wizard auto-detects your databases and APIs and connects them to PostHog.

Adding a data source
- Go to the sources tab of the data pipeline section in PostHog.
- Click + New source and then click Link next to Short.io.
- Create an API key under Integrations & API in your Short.io dashboard. Copy the secret key value.
- Back in PostHog, enter the API key, then click Next.
- Select the tables you want to sync, set the sync method and frequency, then click Import.
Once the syncs are complete, you can start using Short.io data in PostHog.
