Events named "Notification Opened" & "Notification Opened" return incorrect values #27

Example:

config = {api_key: KEY, api_secret: SECRET}
client = Mixpanel::Client.new(config)
client.request('events', { event: ["Notification Sent"], type: "unique", unit: "month", interval: 3 })

=> {"legend_size"=>1,
 "data"=>
  {"series"=>["2013-03-01", "2013-04-01", "2013-05-01"],
   "values"=>
    {"Notification Sent"=>
      {"2013-04-01"=>0, "2013-05-01"=>0, "2013-03-01"=>0}}}}

All other events are returning correct data for me.

Does event: '[Notification Sent]' work?

AhmedBelal commented 11 years ago

No, the type needs to be an array.

Figured it out. "Notification Sent" and "Notification Opened" appear to be two events used internally by Mixpanel, not sent by my app. I don't know why they're exposed to clients in the dashboard but you cannot access them via the data export api.

Glad you found it. Good to know.
