Bubble experiments installation

  1. Copy the web snippet

    Required

    First, copy your PostHog web snippet:

    HTML
    <script>
        !function(t,e){var o,n,p,r;e.__SV||(window.posthog=e,e._i=[],e.init=function(i,s,a){function g(t,e){var o=e.split(".");2==o.length&&(t=t[o[0]],e=o[1]),t[e]=function(){t.push([e].concat(Array.prototype.slice.call(arguments,0)))}}(p=t.createElement("script")).type="text/javascript",p.async=!0,p.src=s.api_host.replace(".i.posthog.com","-assets.i.posthog.com")+"/static/array.js",(r=t.getElementsByTagName("script")[0]).parentNode.insertBefore(p,r);var u=e;for(void 0!==a?u=e[a]=[]:a="posthog",u.people=u.people||[],u.toString=function(t){var e="posthog";return"posthog"!==a&&(e+="."+a),t||(e+=" (stub)"),e},u.people.toString=function(){return u.toString(1)+".people (stub)"},o="init capture register register_once register_for_session unregister opt_out_capturing has_opted_out_capturing opt_in_capturing reset isFeatureEnabled getFeatureFlag getFeatureFlagPayload reloadFeatureFlags group identify setPersonProperties setPersonPropertiesForFlags resetPersonPropertiesForFlags setGroupPropertiesForFlags resetGroupPropertiesForFlags resetGroups onFeatureFlags addFeatureFlagsHandler onSessionId getSurveys getActiveMatchingSurveys renderSurvey canRenderSurvey getNextSurveyStep".split(" "),n=0;n<o.length;n++)g(u,o[n]);e._i.push([i,s,a])},e.__SV=1)}(document,window.posthog||[]);
        posthog.init('<ph_project_token>', {
            api_host: 'https://us.i.posthog.com',
            defaults: '2026-01-30'
        })
    </script>

  2. Add to Bubble

    Required

    Go to your Bubble site settings by clicking on the icon in the left-hand menu. If you haven't already, sign up for at least the Starter site plan. This enables you to add custom code. Then:

    1. Go to the SEO / metatags tab in site settings.
    2. Paste your PostHog snippet in the Script/meta tags in header section.
    3. Deploy your site to live.

  3. Implement your experiment

    Required

    Experiments run on top of our feature flags. You can define which version of your code runs based on the return value of the feature flag:

    if (posthog.getFeatureFlag('your-experiment-feature-flag') === 'test') {
        // Do something differently for this user
    } else {
        // It's a good idea to let control variant always be the default behaviour,
        // so if something goes wrong with flag evaluation, you don't break your app.
    }
    

    // Test that it works
    posthog.featureFlags.overrideFeatureFlags({ flags: {'your-experiment-feature-flag': 'test'} })

  4. Run your experiment

    Required

    Once you've implemented the feature flag in your code, you'll enable it for a target audience by creating a new experiment in the PostHog dashboard.
