analytics-android-integration-mixpanel's Issues

Alias issue

I track events and send them to Mixpanel (before sign up/log in). After sign up/login I am calling alias(newId) and identify(newId). Works fine! But after user logs out (gets new anonymous id, as I am calling reset() ) and logs in, those tracked events (between log out and log in) are recorded as separate user actions (orphaned), but after logging in the events are recorded correctly. How can I solve this?

Adding attributes to payload context in middleware doesn't work as mentioned in the documentation

Middleware Documentation specifies to add attributes to your events by adding them to context.

But for mixpanel context seems to be only changing when identify is called. And the attributes added to context are not being reported to Mixpanel for track calls.

Took a look at the source and figured that track only sends properties to mixpanel and ignores the context.

Need to fix the discrepancy between the documentation and how mixpanel integration works.

People properties list in Mixpanel doesn't get applied on Android.

The people properties list in Mixpanel doesn’t get applied on Android. The properties to send as people properties seen here - https://cloudup.com/cyc_PZ_16D5 - is mapped on ios seen here - https://github.com/segment-integrations/analytics-ios-integration-mixpanel/blob/95a3607a6c92bc2f524d52c26f8c44dd50a65424/Pod/Classes/SEGMixpanelIntegration.m#L86 - but not on android as seen here - https://github.com/segment-integrations/analytics-android-integration-mixpanel/blob/0266dca8c703932fbbb4676a5547b4e5d8730077/src/main/java/com/segment/analytics/android/integrations/mixpanel/MixpanelIntegration.java

Sperandio / Prateek said we should be able to get this into an upcoming sprint.

Mixpanel dependency upgrade?

We're trying to leverage this functionality on Mixpanel but it requires us to use 5.7.0+

Is it possible to get this dependency upgraded?

api 'com.mixpanel.android:mixpanel-android:5.6.7'

People properties are being sent as super properties as well (Automatically set all Traits as Super Properties and People Properties OFF)

With the Automatically set all Traits as Super Properties and People Properties setting OFF, and a specific trait name setup in the Traits to set as People Properties section, any value set for the trait shows up in every single event being logged (i.e. a Super Property), as well as the user's profile (i.e. a People/User Property).

I need to have some events only show up in the People/User profile - there is no need/desire for them to show up as super properties as well, how do I do this?

The TestValue2 value should not show up here with the other event properties...

Should we be sending previousId explicitly on alias?

Referring to this code:

analytics-android-integration-mixpanel/src/main/java/com/segment/analytics/android/integrations/mixpanel/MixpanelIntegration.java

Line 185 in 81d0d56

previousId = null;

we've seen some instances where, due to network connectivity, the identify call is arriving to mixpanel before the alias call, which results in a broken user funnel. this shows up for us exclusively on android. on the ios integration layer, the mixpanel previousId is being passed explicitly. seems like we should maintain this behavior on android. this way, even if the alias arrives after the identify, it will correctly connect the two ids.

thoughts?
