Capabilities

Resource	Sync	Provision
Users

The connector syncs the members of a single Mixpanel project as user identities. Each user carries their Mixpanel project role (Owner, Admin, Analyst, or Consumer), so you can see who has access to your Mixpanel project and at what level.

Gather Mixpanel credentials

You need a Mixpanel Service Account — a Username and Secret pair. They are sent on every request using HTTP Basic authentication and grant API access to your projects, so treat them as secrets. Mixpanel shows the secret only once when the Service Account is created.

1. Sign in to Mixpanel as an Owner or Admin of the organization that contains the project you want to sync.

2. Open Organization Settings, then go to Service Accounts.

3. Click Add Service Account, give it a descriptive name, grant it access to the project you want to sync, and copy the generated Username and Secret — you will not be able to see the secret again.

4. Find your project ID. Open the project, go to Project Settings, and copy the numeric Project ID (for example 1234567). This is the numeric ID, not the project name.

Configure the Mixpanel connector

Cloud-hosted

8. Click Save.

9. The connector’s label changes to Syncing, followed by Connected. You can view the logs to ensure that information is syncing.

Self-hosted

Follow these instructions to run the Mixpanel connector in your own environment.

1. Create secrets for the Mixpanel Service Account Username and Secret.

   • BATON_MIXPANEL_PROJECT_ID: The numeric Mixpanel project ID to sync.
   • BATON_MIXPANEL_BASE_URL (optional): The regional API base URL. Leave unset for US; set to https://eu.mixpanel.com/api/app (EU) or https://in.mixpanel.com/api/app (India) for data-residency projects.
3. Deploy the connector using your standard self-hosted connector process.

Done. Your Mixpanel connector is now pulling access data into C1.
