We need to build a Mixpanel Destination Connector that allows users to send data from Multiwoven to their Mixpanel account. This connector will help users automate the tracking of user events, properties, and other analytics data between Multiwoven and Mixpanel for better insights into user behavior, engagement, and product usage.
Requirements
Authentication:
The connector should support Token-based Authentication using the Mixpanel API key (Project Token) to interact securely with the Mixpanel API. Users will need to generate this token from their Mixpanel account.
Configuration:
The connector should require the following configuration parameters:
api_token: Mixpanel Project Token (API key).
Optional: project_id if the integration supports multiple projects.
Connector Features:
The destination connector should be able to:
Send the following data to Mixpanel:
User Profiles: Sync user profiles, including attributes such as name, email, and custom properties.
Events: Track custom user events, such as clicks, purchases, or specific app interactions.
Properties: Update user properties like engagement level, preferences, or custom fields.
Allow users to map their data fields in Multiwoven to Mixpanel properties and events.
Support bulk operations to handle large sets of events and user properties.
API Interaction:
The connector should use the Mixpanel API for sending user profile data, tracking events, and managing properties. API documentation can be found here: Mixpanel API Documentation
Data Format:
Data sent to Mixpanel must follow the required structure for events, profiles, and properties. This includes properly formatted JSON data for events and user attributes.
Error Handling:
The connector should handle errors gracefully, including:
Invalid API tokens.
Data format or validation errors.
API rate limit issues or quotas.
Steps to Implement
Authentication Setup:
Implement token-based authentication using the Mixpanel Project Token to securely communicate with the Mixpanel API.
Connector Configuration:
Create a configuration file that accepts the necessary parameters, such as api_token and optionally project_id.
API Integration:
Implement the logic to:
Sync user profile data from Multiwoven to Mixpanel.
Track and log custom events in Mixpanel, such as user actions or transactions.
Update user properties based on the synced data.
Support bulk operations for sending multiple events or user data at once.
Field Mapping:
Enable users to map data fields from Multiwoven to Mixpanel’s event and profile fields.
Support both standard and custom attributes for user profiles and event properties.
Error Handling & Logging:
Implement error handling for issues such as authentication failures, invalid data formats, and API rate limits.
Provide detailed logs for both successful and failed API interactions.
Testing:
Write unit tests and integration tests to ensure the connector’s functionality.
Simulate API interactions using mocks to test the syncing of user profiles, event tracking, and property updates.
Documentation:
Provide a detailed README.md explaining how to configure and use the connector.
Include examples of syncing user profiles, tracking custom events, and updating properties.
Acceptance Criteria
The connector successfully syncs data with Mixpanel, including user profiles, custom events, and properties.
Proper error handling is implemented, and logs are available for troubleshooting.
Unit and integration tests cover all key scenarios, such as event logging, user profile syncing, and property management.
Comprehensive documentation is provided for users to configure and use the connector.
