Mixpanel
The Mixpanel integration allows you to fetch Mixpanel’s events and display them at a record level into Forest.

Mongodb
Rails
To benefit from Mixpanel integration, you need to add the package
mixpanel-data-export before going further.Then, add the following code to your
app.js file. In our example we will map the customers.email with the data coming from Mixpanel. You may replace by your own relevant collection(s).By default, Mixpanel is sending the following fields: id, event, date, city, region, country, timezone, os, osVersion, browser, browserVersion. If you want to add other fields from Mixpanel, you have to add them in
customProperties:middlewares/forestadmin.js

const { objectMapping, connections } = require('../models');

module.exports = function (app) {

app.use(Liana.init({

configDir: path.join(__dirname, '../forest'),

envSecret: process.env.FOREST_ENV_SECRET,

To benefit from Mixpanel integration, you need to add the
gem 'mixpanel_client' to your Gemfile.Then, add the following code to your initializer. In our example we will map the
Customer.email with the data coming from Mixpanel. You may replace by your own relevant collection(s).By default, Mixpanel is sending the following fields: id, event, date, city, region, country, timezone, os, osVersion, browser, browserVersion. If you want to add other fields from Mixpanel, you have to add them in
customProperties:/config/initializers/forest_liana.rb
1
ForestLiana.env_secret = Rails.application.secrets.forest_env_secret
2
ForestLiana.auth_secret = Rails.application.secrets.forest_auth_secret

ForestLiana.integrations = {
5
mixpanel: {
6
api_key: 'YOUR MIXPANEL API KEY',
7
api_secret: 'YOUR MIXPANEL SECRET KEY',
8
mapping: ['Customer.email'],
9
custom_properties: ['Campaign Source', 'plan', 'tutorial complete'],
10
}
11
}
Copied!
You will then be able to see the Mixpanel events on a record, a
Customer in our example.
