Issue with People Identify in controller after signup/sign in

[jeremybdk]

Hi,

I am trying to track actions, everything work fine using javascript but I have an issue with the gem. I would like to identify my user actions in the controller So I added in my devise controller after resource.save these line but could not figure the syntax to identify the user ....

mixpanel.set resource.id, { :created => resource.created_at, :name => resource.full_name, :age => resource.age, :adult => resource.adult? , :id => resource.id,:email => resource.email }

mixpanel.append_people_identify(resource.id)

mixpanel.track 'User Created and People Identified', { :email => resource.email, :name => resource.full_name } I might be doing something wrong somewhere but don't know what, I also tried with mixpanel.append_identify but same issue, it won't identify the user, the user is created on mixpanel, the action tracked but the user is not identifed

Thanks in advance for your help

Isn't enough to call mixpanel.set from the backend ?

Yep, that is the latest one.

Honestly I am not sure what can be happening, I am not using that feature my self. I know that there were people using it, and nobody have reported a bug yet.

I need to find time to set up a new project and find out if it is working. Tests at least are passing.

Meanwhile, I suggest you to debug what says the requests that are hitting mixpanel when you set properties. May be that could help.

Also please share a Gist or something showing the exactly code you are using, how are you initializing the lib etc.

Thanks for your support ...

You welcome, sorry I couldn't be more helpful.

Well actually I think I have found the issue ... mixpanel.track 'User Created and People Identified', { :email => resource.email, :distinct_id => resource.id , :name => resource.full_name }

mixpanel.set resource.id, { :created => resource.created_at, :name => resource.full_name, :age => resource.age, :adult => resource.adult? , :id => resource.id,:email => resource.email }

I was not tracking using disctinct_id so that was the issue ! Thanks for your help !
