PostHog Dashboard Cloner

Overview

The PostHog Dashboard Cloner is a Go application designed to clone dashboards from one PostHog project to another. This tool is particularly useful for migrating dashboards between different environments or accounts. It moves tiles from a source dashboard to a destination dashboard, ensuring that the original dashboard is duplicated before the operation to prevent data loss.

• Interactive and Non-Interactive Modes: The application can run in interactive mode, prompting the user for input, or in non-interactive mode using environment variables.

• Dashboard Management: Retrieves, creates, and updates dashboards using the PostHog API.
