Mixpanel integration
UserGist sends core events through Mixpanel's server-side Import API. Choose US, EU, or India to match the project residency.
Required identity mode
Version 1 supports Simplified ID Merge only. In Mixpanel, open Project Settings → Identity Merge and confirm Simplified ID Merge is enabled before connecting.
Connect
- Copy the project token from Mixpanel project settings.
- Open UserGist → App settings → Integrations → Mixpanel.
- Select the matching region and event categories, then connect.
- Find UserGist Integration Connected in the Events Activity Feed using the synthetic device ID shown by UserGist.
Identity mapping
| UserGist | Mixpanel |
|---|---|
anonymousId | $device_id |
externalId | $user_id |
| Event identity | distinct_id is the external ID when identified, otherwise the anonymous ID |
| Event UUID | $insert_id |
Use the same immutable account ID in UserGist.identify() that your existing Mixpanel implementation uses as $user_id. Do not substitute email unless email is genuinely immutable in your system.
