To store a user’s plan in Mixpanel and have it update when the user changes plan, you should:
1. Identify the user with a stable ID.
2. Set a profile property (for example plan) on their user profile.
3. Call the same “set” method again whenever the plan changes; Mixpanel will overwrite the previous value.
Here are examples in several SDKs.
JavaScript (web)
js
// Once per session (or after login)
mixpanel.identify('USER_ID');
// Set or update plan
mixpanel.people.set({
plan: 'Premium'
});
// Later, when user changes plan:
mixpanel.people.set({
plan: 'Enterprise' // overwrites previous value
});
React Native
js
mixpanel.identify('USER_ID');
// Initial plan
mixpanel.getPeople().set('plan', 'Premium');
// On plan change
mixpanel.getPeople().set('plan', 'Enterprise');
Go (backend)
ctx := context.Background()
mp := mixpanel.NewApiClient("YOUR_PROJECT_TOKEN")
// Initial plan
user := mixpanel.NewPeopleProperties("USER_ID", map[string]any{
"plan": "Premium",
"$ip": 0,
})
_ = mp.PeopleSet(ctx, []**mixpanel.PeopleProperties{user})
// On plan change
userUpdate := mixpanel.NewPeopleProperties("USER_ID", map[string]any{
"plan": "Enterprise", // overwrites
"$ip": 0,
})
_ = mp.PeopleSet(ctx, []**mixpanel.PeopleProperties{userUpdate})
General rule
- Use the profile “set” method for your SDK (people.set, PeopleSet, Mixpanel.People.Set, etc.).
- Use the same distinct_id / user ID each time.
- Whenever the user changes plan in your app, call the same method again with the new plan value; Mixpanel will automatically update the “plan” column on that user’s profile. [Identify users]
