Creating a Filter for 'deploy' in Mixpanel Properties

I'm trying to create a property in Mixpanel that filters for 'action title' property which only contains the string 'deploy'. How can I do this, what is the syntax?

To create a property in Mixpanel that filters for the event property action title containing the string deploy, you can use the filter functionality in reports or create a custom property using Mixpanel’s formula builder.If you are filtering in a report: - Add a filter to your event (e.g., in an Insights report). - Select the action title property. - Use the contains operator and enter deploy as the value.If you want to create a custom property that evaluates to true when action title contains deploy, you can use the split or regex_replace functions, but the knowledge sources do not provide a direct contains function in the custom property formula builder. However, you can use the split function to check if deploy is present, for example: LBKSlen(filter(X, split([action title], " "), X == "deploy")) > 0LBKSBut this only works if deploy is a separate word in the action title. For a substring match, the knowledge sources do not explicitly mention a contains function for custom properties.For segmentation expressions (e.g., in the Query API), you can use: LBKSproperties["action title"] == "deploy"LBKSor for an exact match, but for substring matching, the knowledge sources do not provide a direct contains operator. You may need to use regex_replace or similar functions if available, but this is not clearly documented for substring matching in custom properties.In summary: - For report filters, use the contains operator in the UI. - For custom properties, substring matching is not explicitly documented in the knowledge sources, so you may be limited to exact matches or workarounds using split if deploy is a separate word.References: - Custom Properties: Functions - Reports Overview: Filters
