how can i find cohorts on my mixpanel dash

Hi Anirudh C., Please stand by as I search the Mixpanel knowledge base for an AI-powered answer. I normally take about 15 seconds or so. In case AI cannot answer your question, feel free to reach out to Mixpanel support at mixpanel.com/get-support. If you have follow-up questions for this thread, please tag me again with your question: @kapa.ai <follow-up question> 👋

You can find and use cohorts in a few main places in your Mixpanel project:

1. Users page (main place to explore cohorts) - Go to Users in the left nav. This page is designed for exploring users and creating/managing cohorts. [Users overview] - From here you can filter users and then save those filters as a cohort. [Cohorts main]

2. Cohort Builder (full list + editing) - Open the Cohort Builder (via Users or directly at the “users/cohorts” area) to see and edit saved cohorts. [Cohorts main] - This shows all cohorts you’ve defined and lets you change their conditions.

3. Inside reports (Insights, Funnels, Retention, Flows, etc.) - In any report, open the Filter or Breakdown menu and change the properties menu filter to Cohorts; you’ll see all saved cohorts there and can filter/break down by them. [Properties menu; Using cohorts in analysis] - In Flows, there’s also a Breakdown button where you can select cohorts to compare paths. [Flows advanced]

4. From points in reports (“View Users” → “Create Cohort”) - In an Insights, Funnels, or Retention chart, click a bar/point, choose View Users, then Create Cohort. That new cohort will then appear everywhere cohorts are listed. [Define user cohorts; Cohorts main]

If you tell me which screen you’re on (e.g., Insights vs Users), I can give step‑by‑step clicks for that specific place.

You don’t manually “add” individual users one by one; instead, you define who belongs in the cohort, and Mixpanel keeps it up to date. There are three main ways to do this:

1. In an Insights, Funnels, or Retention report, click on a bar/point you care about. 2. Click View Users. 3. In the side panel with the user list, click Create Cohort and save it.

That cohort will always represent “users who match that point/segment in the report.” [Cohorts docs; View Users]

1. Go to Users → open the Cohort Builder. 2. Define conditions like: - “Users who did <event> more than X times in last 7 days” - “Users where <profile property> equals <value> ” 3. Save the cohort.

Any user who meets those conditions is automatically “in” the cohort. [Cohorts docs]

Use this if you have a list of distinct_ids you want in a cohort and they’re not easy to describe with rules:

1. Create a CSV with: - Column 1: distinct_id values - Column 2: a flag like inCohort = yes for all rows (No headers in the file.) [Cohort via CSV] 2. In Mixpanel, go to Users → Add/Edit Profile → Import from CSV. 3. Map column 1 to $distinct_id, column 2 to a new user property (e.g. inCohort). [Bulk import CSV] 4. After import, create a cohort defined as user["inCohort"] == "yes".

This creates a static cohort based on that property. [Cohort via CSV]

If you tell me whether you have a rule (e.g. “signed up last 7 days”) or a fixed list of user IDs, I can walk you through the exact clicks for that case.

You can edit a cohort’s definition using the Cohort Builder / Lexicon. The docs don’t spell out every click path, but they do state:

- Cohorts are defined by conditions like “users who did <event> X times” or “users where <profile property> equals <value> ,” and these conditions are what you change when editing. [Cohorts main] - Cohorts can be created and managed in Lexicon, alongside saved metrics, custom events, and properties. [Cohorts main]

Putting that together, the typical flow to edit is:

1. Open the Cohort Builder / Cohorts list (via Users or Lexicon). [Cohorts main] 2. Select the cohort you want to change. 3. Adjust the conditions (events, counts, time windows, or profile properties). [Cohorts main] 4. Save the cohort so the new definition is applied everywhere it’s used.

If you tell me whether you’re opening the cohort from Users or from Lexicon, I can tailor the steps more precisely, but the exact UI labels beyond this aren’t detailed in the sources.
