The insight builder for Trends queries now includes a new 'First time for user' option. This is exactly what it sounds like. When selected, users are only counted the first time they complete an event or action. This is useful for filtering out users who belong to multiple orgs or accounts, or tracking the growth of new users who are discovering a feature for the first time.

We deliver glad tidings to Android app developers on this day... Our most esteemed mobile developer, Manoel Neto, has added support for `Identified` properties to our Android SDK, which means you can now filter out anonymous users with ease. The PR for this change also adds in a few other things, such as a fix for `identify()` to ensure `identify` events are only captured if the user isn't already identified. PS: If you haven't already, give our session replay beta for Android a try. PPS: React Native session replay is totally very nearly ready, folks. PPPS: We're working on Flutter support, too. Don't worry. PPPPS: Do not google 'hedgehog xray'

New data source alert! 🚨 You can now link your database tables from an Azure SQL server, to PostHog's data warehouse. In fact, you can connect any Microsoft SQL server, because we use Microsoft ODBC 18 to connect to your SQL server. There are some caveats. For Azure databases, we can only use SQL authentication and the database needs to be publicly accessible, or use an SSH tunnel. This should all be easily done, however. We explain it all in the docs, of course. This feature was hand crafted by Tom Owers using only the best local ingredients, responsibly sourced.
