To delete certain events in Mixpanel, follow these steps: 1. Navigate to the Data Deletion section in Project Settings. 2. Click ‘Request an Event Deletion’. 3. Select which event you want to delete. 4. Select time range (cannot be more than 180 days in the past). 5. Add any Event property filters if needed. 6. Validate in the preview that the right data is being deleted. 7. Submit deletion request.Please note that data deletion is permanent and irreversible in 7 days after submitting. Until that time, you may undo the action. Ensure that you carefully review and confirm your selections before proceeding. During this intermediate 7-day period, Mixpanel will automatically hide the data in your deletion request from your users, so they don’t accidentally analyze incorrect or sensitive data.For more information, refer to the Mixpanel documentation on Data Deletion.

To delete an entire event in Mixpanel, you can use the Data Deletion tool. However, please note that this tool is recommended only in certain scenarios such as when you have accidentally ingested sensitive data that you legally cannot have and need to urgently delete, or when you have experienced bot traffic issues or implementation issues leading to duplicative tracking. Here are the steps to use the Data Deletion tool: 1. Navigate to the Data Deletion section in Project Settings. 2. Click ‘Request an Event Deletion’. 3. Select the event you want to delete. 4. Select the time range (cannot be more than 180 days in the past). 5. Add any Event property filters if needed. 6. Validate in the preview that the right data is being deleted. 7. Submit the deletion request.Please note that data deletion is a severe action with permanent consequences. It affects your entire project and can allow you to remove a subset of problematic events from an otherwise useful event. Once deleted, the data cannot be recovered. For more information, refer to the Mixpanel documentation on Data Deletion.
