kapa.ai is it possible to trigger two mixpanel events for a single event in our app, each getting assigned a different name and to different distinct users? My use case is to build a funnel where the user is constant (per funnel requirements), even if some events are actually performed by another user
Based on the knowledge sources provided, it's not directly possible to trigger two Mixpanel events for a single app event and assign them to different distinct users in the way you've described. However, there are a couple of approaches you could consider to achieve a similar outcome for your use case: 1. Custom Events: You could create a custom event that combines multiple events into a single event for analysis purposes. This would allow you to track actions performed by different users as part of a single funnel. As described in the Custom Events documentation, you can create a custom event that includes multiple events, optionally filtered by specific properties.2. Comparison Events: In the Funnels report, you can use comparison events to select multiple events at a particular step in a funnel. This allows you to compute a segmented funnel showing the percentage of users reaching each of these comparison events. This is mentioned in the Funnels documentation.However, it's important to note that Mixpanel's funnel analysis is designed to track a single user's journey through a series of events. The Funnels FAQ states that users need to complete all funnel steps in order (though they can engage in other actions between steps) for it to count as a conversion.To accurately represent a funnel where some actions are performed by different users, you might need to rethink your event tracking strategy. You could consider tracking these actions as properties of a single event that represents the overall process, rather than as separate events performed by different users.For a more tailored solution to your specific use case, you may want to consult with Mixpanel's support team or consider if there are alternative ways to model your funnel that align with Mixpanel's event tracking and funnel analysis capabilities.

Let me check the knowledge base for you again. One moment! đ
Yes, you can use Mixpanel's Group Analytics to represent a funnel where actions are performed by different users. Group Analytics is designed to analyze behavioral data at a group level rather than an individual user level, which makes it suitable for your use case.Here's how you can approach this: 1. Set up Group Analytics: First, ensure you have Group Analytics enabled. It's a paid add-on available for Enterprise or Growth plan customers, as mentioned in the Group Analytics documentation.2. Define a Group Key: You'll need to define a group key in your project settings. This could be something like "account_id" or "team_id" that links the different users involved in your funnel.3. Attribute Events to the Group: When tracking events, make sure to include the group key as an event property. This will attribute the events to the group rather than just the individual user. For example:
account_id: 'shared_account_123'
});
```LBKSLBKS4. Analyze at Group Level: When creating your funnel analysis, you can now choose to analyze by the group key instead of individual users. This allows you to see how the group (e.g., account or team) progresses through the funnel, regardless of which specific user performed each action.LBKSBy using Group Analytics, you can answer questions like "What groups convert through a funnel to a goal event (as opposed to what individual users convert)?" as mentioned in the [Group Analytics documentation](https://docs.mixpanel.com/docs/data-structure/group-analytics).LBKSThis approach allows you to accurately represent a funnel where actions are performed by different users, as long as those users are part of the same group (e.g., same account or team).LBKSRemember that implementing Group Analytics requires some setup, including defining group keys in your project settings and modifying your event tracking to include group identifiers. Make sure to review the implementation details in the [Group Analytics documentation](https://docs.mixpanel.com/docs/data-structure/group-analytics#implementation) for your specific SDK.
