Support

Contents

Support gives you one inbox for every customer conversation, whether it arrives from your app, your email, or a GitHub issue. Because PostHog already knows what's happening in your product, each ticket comes with the sender's session replay, events, and errors attached, so you can see what went wrong instead of trying to reproduce it. Those same conversations feed Self-driving, which groups recurring issues into pull requests you review and merge.

How Support works with Self-driving

Your support conversations are a signal source for Self-driving: recurring issues become reports, and when there's a code fix, a pull request you review and merge.
