Ensure your PostHog SDK configuration masks password fields, credit card inputs, and Personally Identifiable Information (PII) before the data leaves the user's browser.
If you use PostHog Cloud but want portability, you don't need to self-host entirely. Use the Batch Export API.

This implementation provides:
Replay player is functional but lacks FullStory’s “rage clicks” auto-detection, friction scores, or advanced search by DOM attributes.
// session-uploader.ts class SessionUploader async uploadSession(session: SessionRecording, endpoint: string): Promise<void> const compressed = await this.compressSession(session); const response = await fetch(endpoint, method: 'POST', headers: 'Content-Type': 'application/json', , body: JSON.stringify( sessionId: session.sessionId, userId: session.userId, startTime: session.startTime, endTime: session.endTime, events: compressed, metadata: session.metadata, ), );
To prove true portability, you must be able to leave. PostHog allows you to run a delete command via API:
Support for iOS, Android, Flutter, and React Native apps.
Recognizing the need for better portability, PostHog has acknowledged plans to build a dedicated session replay batch export mechanism to remove the need to use the current API for large-scale data transfers. This is a clear sign that "portability" is a priority on their product roadmap.
