kapa.ai I am currently on the Growth Plan. I would like to automatically export a dynamic cohort (specifically the distinct IDs) to an external tool once a day. Could you confirm if this is possible, and if so, how can I configure a daily sync?
Yes, this is possible on the Growth plan! Cohort Sync is available to paid plan customers, and you can configure a recurring (dynamic) sync to automatically export your cohort's distinct IDs to an external tool. [Cohort Sync Overview]
How to Set It Up
1. Establish a Connection
First, connect Mixpanel to your destination:
Go to Settings > Integrations in Mixpanel.
Select your destination and click Connect (providing the required API key or credentials).
If your tool doesn't have a native integration, you can use a Custom Webhook instead. [Custom Webhooks]
2. Export the Cohort with a Dynamic Sync
Navigate to Lexicon, then select the Cohorts tab.
Find your cohort, click the three-dot icon, and select Export to > [Your Destination].
Choose Dynamic Sync.
Click Start Sync.
Important Notes on Sync Cadence
The sync frequency depends on the specific integration. Most integrations (e.g., Appcues, Taplytics, Chameleon, Kameleoon) update every two hours, while some like Iterable and mParticle sync every 15 minutes. [Cohort Sync Integrations] The knowledge sources do not explicitly confirm a daily cadence as a user-selectable option for most integrations — the recurring syncs appear to run more frequently (every 2 hours or 15 minutes) rather than exactly once per day. If a strict daily cadence is required, you may want to verify this with the specific integration's documentation or use a Custom Webhook where you have more control over how you process incoming data.

Exported Data
By default, Cohort Sync exports the following user properties, including $distinct_id:
$distinct_id
$first_name
$last_name
$partner_user_id
$email
$phoneNote that each project is limited to 60 dynamic (recurring) cohort syncs across all destinations, and each cohort is limited to 10 million users. [Cohort Sync Overview]
