Person records can be matched from your source to your PostHog workspace by Distinct ID (distinct_id), which is a unique identifier
in PostHog for each Person.
You may also sync columns from your source to PostHog's Person properties. PostHog doesn't provide information on properties set for People objects,
so you will need to type the exact name of the property you would like to map to in PostHog. These property names must be spelled correctly and are case-sensitive.
The PostHog integration also allows you to send events to PostHog with custom properties.
To ensure syncs send each event, your event model must use a truly unique primary key. See the events syncs documentation for more information.
The four elements of any PostHog event are the Event Name (required, which can be a single string used to name all events, or pulled from your warehouse per event), a Timestamp (optional, in ISO 1806 format, or a Unix timestamp in milliseconds), a Distinct ID (required, the unique ID of the user corresponding to the event), and event properties.
You can also map properties that will become event properties in PostHog, just as you would for object properties.
