You can compare the current week to the previous week for a particular event occurrence in Mixpanel using the Time Period Comparisons feature in Insights. Here's how to do it: 1. First, create an Insights report with your desired event 2. Click on the Compare to past button at the top of your Insights graph 3. Select "Previous period" from the dropdown menu (this will automatically compare to the previous week if your current time range is set to a week)This will display your current week's data alongside the previous week's data, allowing you to easily visualize and compare the trends between the two time periods.If you need more specific date ranges, you can also select a custom date range for comparison.Insights Advanced Features explains that this comparison feature helps you "track trends and growth in your product's use" and allows you to "compare traffic from a specific campaign period or event from one year to the next."The visualization will show both time periods on the same chart, making it easy to identify changes in your event occurrence patterns between the current and previous week.

You can rename items in your Insights report legend by using the "Rename" feature. Based on the documentation, here's how to rename a step or event in an Insights report: 1. Find the event or step you want to rename in your report 2. Click on the "three dots" (or "...") icon next to the event 3. Select "Rename" from the dropdown menuAs mentioned in the documentation: "Click on the 'three dots' icon beside an event and click Rename to rename it. This will only affect the current report, and will not change the event's name in other reports." Insights Basic FeaturesSimilarly, for Funnels, you can "Click on the '...' icon besides a step and click 'Rename' to rename it." Funnels Advanced ConceptsThis renaming is local to your current report and won't affect how the event or breakdown appears in other reports or in your data collection.

I understand you want to rename the breakdown values specifically, not the event itself. Based on the knowledge sources provided, there isn't explicit documentation about renaming breakdown values in Insights reports. The documentation only mentions renaming events within a report by clicking the "three dots" icon beside an event and selecting "Rename" (which you're already familiar with).For breakdowns specifically, the documentation doesn't mention a direct way to rename the breakdown values in the legend. The available information covers how to apply breakdowns, use custom bucketing for high-cardinality segments, and analyze breakdowns, but not how to rename the individual breakdown values in the legend.If you need to customize how breakdown values appear, you might want to explore using custom properties or custom buckets as potential workarounds, but the documentation doesn't specifically address renaming breakdown values in the legend.Would you like me to provide more information about custom properties or custom buckets as potential alternatives?
