Export Events to Mixpanel
Send Netcore CE events data to Mixpanel events.
This document walks you through exporting event data to Mixpanel. Mixpanel accepts a live stream of events instead of files.
The export is built in three steps: Setup, Data selection, and Data mapping. A progress bar at the top shows where you are.
How Mixpanel differs from S3 and GCS
- Setup asks for fewer details. There is no file format and no export mode to choose.
- There is no Schedule step. Mixpanel receives events as a live stream.
- The last step is Data mapping, where you match Netcore fields to Mixpanel fields.
PrerequisteIntegrate Mixpanel with Netcore from Settings > Integrations > Catalog > Mixpanel. Refer to this documentation to know more.
Once the Mixpanel integration is connected, follow the steps given below to set up a Data Transfer from Netcore to Mixpanel.

- Enter an identifier to test with, such as an email ID.
- Click TEST.
Note
- Map all the required fields before you test. The screen shows a message until you do. Test values are only for the test. They do not affect real data.
- Contacts which are available in Netcore Contact Master will only be visible in the dropdown. This data transfer only supports Identified contacts as of now.
- In case, your selected identifier does not match any record, the test configuration fails and shows . a gateway response.

- To change anything, click EDIT on that section.
- When everything is correct, click START EXPORT.
A confirmation message appears. Your new export shows up in the list on the Data transfer page.
NoteThe button says START EXPORT, not Create Export. Mixpanel starts sending events right away because it is a live stream, not a scheduled file export.
After You Start the Export
Back on the Data transfer list, the row for your export shows its name, ID, and status. Use the three-dot menu on the row to manage it. The actions depend on the status. These include Edit, Duplicate, Delete, Pause, Resume, and Stop.
