Invalid JSON Format: event #29

Closed GeoffreyPlitt closed 5 years ago

GeoffreyPlitt commented 5 years ago

I am calling the "events" function with this params object:

{
      event: 'finishedWatching',
      type: 'general',
      interval: 90
  }

And I am getting an error I don't understand: Invalid JSON Format: event

Full error stack:

The event property should actually be an array of event names, per Mixpanel's data export documentation, so it would look like: 

{
      event: ['finishedWatching'],
      type: 'general',
      interval: 90
}

Will try that, thanks!
