Mixpanel

This guide describes how to add and configure the Mixpanel integration.

Mixpanel is a powerful mobile analytics service. Send events to Mixpanel via Apphud, analyze your users' behavior and make necessary decisions.

How to Add Integration?

❗️

Important Note

Please make sure that Mixpanel Collection common mobile events are Disabled. See here for details.

Step 1

Step 2

In order not to receive Mixpanel automatic In-App purchase events disable collection common mobile events. Otherwise, if a user, for example, starts a trial period Mixpanel will consider this as revenue. More details here.

Match User IDs

Here is an example of initialising both SDKs with User IDs matching.

Swift

func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplication.LaunchOptionsKey: Any]?) -> Bool {

    Apphud.start(apiKey: "YOUR_API_KEY")
    Apphud.setDelegate(self)
    
    Mixpanel.initialize(token: mixpanel_token) 
    Mixpanel.mainInstance().identify(distinctId: Apphud.userID())

    return true
}

func apphudDidChangeUserID(_ userID: String) {
    // Match again
    Mixpanel.mainInstance().identify(distinctId: Apphud.userID())
}

Objective-C

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {
    // Override point for customization after application launch.
    
    [Apphud startWithApiKey:@"APPHUD_API_KEY" userID:nil];
    [Apphud setDelegate:self];
    
    [Mixpanel sharedInstanceWithToken:@"MIXPANEL_TOKEN"];
    [Mixpanel.sharedInstance identify:Apphud.userID];
    
    return YES;
}

- (void)apphudDidChangeUserID:(NSString *)userID {
    [Mixpanel.sharedInstance identify:Apphud.userID];
}

Java

Apphud.start(apiKey: "YOUR_API_KEY");
MixpanelAPI mixpanel = MixpanelAPI.getInstance(context, MIXPANEL_TOKEN);
mixpanel.identify(Apphud.userID());

Importing Historical Events

You can specify service credentials for importing historical events (for example, renewals that occurred before Apphud SDK integration).

You will need to provide Project ID and Service Account credentials. See here for details.
