Documented steps

  1. POST to https://us.i.posthog.com/flags?v=2 (US) or https://eu.i.posthog.com/flags?v=2 (EU) — the v=2 query param selects the current response format.
  2. Header: Content-Type: application/json. Auth is the project API key in the body (public endpoint, no bearer header).
  3. Body: {"api_key": "<project key phc_...>", "distinct_id": "<user id>"}; optional: "groups": {"<group_type>": "<group_key>"}, "person_properties": {...}, "group_properties": {...} for property overrides.
  4. Response contains a flags object keyed by flag key with enabled state, variant, and evaluation reason metadata.
  5. Optionally add config=true as a query param to get PostHog config in the same response.
