Open beta release (feature preview)

• Get LogEntries connected
• Templating helpers - find a relevant event and give autocomplete suggestions for both string and code inputs
• Get AppMetrics connected
• Native oauth integration (needed for a lot of destinations, e.g. salesforce)
• Show function status in the list view and alert when disabled
• Test autocapture work (likely works but lets just triple check)

General release

• Secret management
• Fix activity log
• Test event data from real events
• Event throughput estimation - show a rough estimate of how many matching events will trigger with warnings
• Ensure that the billing guard is in place for data pipelines addon
• Indicate when oauth integration scopes need refreshing
• Fix groups stuff as that is broken now...

Non-blocking ideas / work

• Linked destinations for actions
• Fix channel selector to save the name as well if possible
• Idea: generalise the way to modify the event / person properties so it isn't implemented per plugin
  • Removes the need for a lot of custom code like this https://github.com/PostHog/posthog-avo-
• Ensure optional properties work as expected person?.properties?.email
• Expose posthog.capture method as a minimum so we can have more control over these use cases
• Create a sleep/timer service
• Remove old action matching bytecodes from postgres
• Indicate specifically if the underlying template has been updated since it was forked (allowing people to know there are "updates" available
• Pull the "leader" into its own deployment
