### Step 2: Connect Requested Analytics Destinations

Customers may request analytics in one or multiple destinations. You'll need to connect each one to the existing source (https://app.segment.com/buildwithfern/sources/build_with_fern/overview). Example destinations are Posthog, Google Analytics, and Hubspot
Customers may request analytics in one or multiple destinations. You send data to destinations by connecting them to a source (https://app.segment.com/buildwithfern/sources/build_with_fern/overview). Example destinations are Posthog, Google Analytics, and Hubspot.

Aside: Segment limits how many instances (25) of a single destination type we can connect to a single source. To get around this, we use Segment functions which pipe the data to our own analytics instance + send it to the customer's analytics instance with HTTP requests.

For destination where we use Segment functions you do NOT need to connect a new destination to the source, you'll simply update the destination function as described below. This is currently only configured for Posthog.

For other destination types, simply add an instance of the destination type and follow the instructions in Segment to connect it to the customer's instance.

### Step 3: Configure Destinations
Each destination may require some configuration.
