Conversation
Adds an Android tile to the Logs SDK picker. Reuses the product-analytics install + configure steps, then appends a Logs-specific "Send a log" step using PostHog.logger.info. Requires posthog-android@3.46.0+, which ships the public PostHogLogger / PostHogLogsConfig surface.

Problem
The Logs install onboarding picker didn't list Android, even though
posthog-android@3.46.0ships first-class log capture (PostHog/posthog-android#525, merged). Android developers had no in-product path to wire up Logs. Follow-up to #59216, which added iOS and React Native.Changes
Adds an Android tile to the Logs SDK picker. Reuses the product-analytics install + configure steps, then appends a Logs-specific "Send a log" step using
PostHog.logger.infowith structured attributes.How did you test this code?
I am an agent. I ran
pnpm exec tsc --noEmiton the touched files (no errors) and lint-staged on commit (passed: prettier + eslint viabin/hogli format:js). I did not drive the local stack to load the picker manually for this iteration — mirrors the structure of the merged iOS / React Native tiles from #59216.Publish to changelog?
no
Docs update
Companion docs PR: PostHog/posthog.com#17037 adds the Android logs installation page (linked from the tile).
🤖 Agent context
Authored by an agent (Claude Code), human-driven. Approach: mirror the iOS variant exactly — call
getAndroidStepsPA(ctx)fromdocs/onboarding/product-analytics/androidfor install + configure, then append a single KotlinPostHog.logger.info(...)snippet as the "Send a log" step. No version param needed: the product-analytics Android install snippet pinscom.posthog:posthog-android:3.+, which already covers3.46.0+.Considered but rejected: showing both
PostHog.logger.info(...)andPostHog.captureLog(...)in the onboarding snippet. The iOS / RN tiles each show only one entry-point; keeping it to the high-level facade matches that pattern and is the call site most users will reach for first.
