Generating a Report for Events with Shared Properties in Analytics

Can I pull a report of all events that have the same property? For example, we are planning to tag Error state as a Status and then capture error text into another field. I want to then create a report of all users who experienced an error status and break it out by events where errors were observed. Would that be possible?

Yes, you can achieve this in Mixpanel. Here’s how you can approach your scenario: 1. Tagging Errors as a Property: If you tag error states with a property (e.g., Status = "Error") and capture the error text in another property (e.g., Error Text), these properties will be available on all events where an error occurs.2. Filtering Events by Property: In Mixpanel reports, you can filter events to only include those where a specific property matches a value. For example, you can filter for all events where Status equals "Error". This can be done using the filter functionality in Insights, Funnels, or other reports. You can add a filter by clicking the Filter button and selecting the property and value you want to filter by. Inline filters can also be applied to individual events in your query by clicking the … icon beside the event and specifying the property filter you want to use. You can combine multiple filters as needed Docs / Reports Overview.3. Breaking Down by Event Name: Once you have filtered for error events, you can break down the results by the event name to see which events are generating errors. In the report, use the Breakdown feature and select the property “Event Name” to group the results by event type. This will show you, for each event, how many times an error occurred Docs / Features / Advanced.4. Viewing Error Details: You can also break down or filter further by the Error Text property to see the specific error messages associated with each event.Summary: You can create a report that shows all users who experienced an error status, and break it out by the events where errors were observed, using property filters and breakdowns in Mixpanel reports. This approach is fully supported by Mixpanel’s filtering and breakdown capabilities Docs / Data-structure, Docs / Reports Overview, Docs / Features / Advanced.If you need to see this per user, you can also use breakdowns or cohort filters to segment by user or user properties.
