Clicking on People in the left-hand navigation opens a list containing all users, which you can then search.
All users have a alphanumeric ID. Identified users have a distinct ID, normally email.
PostHog tracks user behavior, whether or not the user is logged in and identifiable.
Person profiles
Clicking on a user opens their profile and shows all their properties.
Events shows all the events a user has triggered, which you can search and filter to find specific events.
Recordings shows all session replays a user has generated. Note this is subject to the retention policy of your plan, so users who haven't been active recently may have none.
Cohorts shows all the cohorts a user belongs to.
Related groups: shows groups (e.g. organizations, projects, and instances) a user belongs to.
Feature flags: shows all feature flags that are enabled for a user.
History: shows any manual changes that have been made to the user's profile.
