    Based on the knowledge sources provided, I can give you information about some of the actions that can trigger events in Mixpanel. Events in Mixpanel represent user interactions or behaviors within your product. Here's a list of some common actions that can trigger events:1. Page views 2. Button clicks 3. Dropdown selections 4. Dragging items 5. Opening or closing screens/views 6. Completing actions (like purchases or sign-ups) 7. Receiving notifications 8. Unlocking achievements (in games)It's important to note that events in Mixpanel are highly customizable and can be defined based on your specific product and analytics needs. As mentioned in the Mixpanel blog:"An event is anything meaningful that happens (at a specific point in time) while an app is being used."This means that virtually any user interaction or system-triggered action within your product can be defined as an event in Mixpanel, as long as it's relevant to your analytics goals.Additionally, Mixpanel supports various lifecycle and user-triggered events, as mentioned in another Mixpanel blog post:LBKS.onAppear { ... } .onDisappear { ... } .onTapGesture { ... } .onLongPressGesture { ... } .onDrag { ... } .onDrop { ... } ...LBKSThese examples show that events can be triggered by various user interactions and view lifecycle events in mobile apps.Remember, the key is to define events that are meaningful for your specific product and analysis needs, rather than trying to track every possible action.
