    Based on the provided knowledge sources, there is no specific information about authenticating embedded dashboards using keypairs in Mixpanel. The available information about embeds and authentication doesn't mention this particular method.According to the Embeds documentation, Mixpanel Boards and reports can be embedded in third-party tools, but the authentication process described is different:"Paste the link of the Board or Report into the 3rd-party tool and follow the instructions to authenticate."The documentation doesn't mention any keypair authentication for embeds. Instead, it focuses on using oEmbed format or services like Embedly or Iframely for embedding Mixpanel content.For most Mixpanel API authentication, the recommended methods are using Service Accounts or Project Tokens, depending on the specific API being used. However, these are not explicitly linked to embedded dashboard authentication in the provided information.If you need more specific information about authenticating embedded dashboards, you may want to consult Mixpanel's official documentation or contact their support team directly, as the knowledge sources provided don't contain enough information to answer your question about keypair authentication for embedded dashboards.

    Yes, Mixpanel provides documentation on using service accounts. Service accounts are a recommended authentication method for many Mixpanel APIs. Here's a summary of the key information from the documentation:1. Definition: A service account is a special type of Mixpanel user intended to represent non-human entities like scripts or backend services Service Accounts.2. Authentication: Service account authentication is performed via HTTP Basic Auth. You can use either base64 encoding or plain-text to provide the service account's username and secret as authentication credentials Service Accounts.3. Management: Service accounts can be managed in the Organization settings or Project settings. Owners or Admins can create, view, and delete service accounts Service Accounts.4. Expiration: By default, service accounts have no expiration, but you can optionally specify a validity period when creating one Service Accounts.5. API Usage: Many Mixpanel APIs, including the Query API, Event Export API, and Lexicon Schemas API, recommend using service accounts for authentication Query API Authentication, Event Export API Authentication, Lexicon Schemas API Authentication.6. Service Accounts API: Mixpanel also provides a Service Accounts API that allows you to manage your service accounts programmatically Service Accounts API Overview.For detailed information on how to implement service account authentication, you can refer to the specific API documentation you're working with, as the exact implementation may vary slightly depending on the API.
