To set quarters in Mixpanel, you have a couple of options depending on where you want to use quarters:
1. Date Range Selection in Reports When selecting a date range for your reports, Mixpanel provides preset options such as "Quarter to Date" and "Last 3 months." "Quarter to Date" includes data from the start of the current quarter up to the current second, and it updates dynamically as time progresses. You can select this option from the date range selector in any report. The date range selector also respects your project's start of quarter settings, which can be configured in your project settings Reports Overview – Date Range.
2. Breakdowns by Quarter When breaking down your data, you can use the "Time" event property and select "Quarter" as the breakdown interval. This allows you to segment your results by calendar quarters (e.g., Q1, Q2, Q3, Q4) Query Builder Features.
3. JQL (JavaScript Query Language) Bucketing If you are using JQL for advanced queries, Mixpanel provides a built-in constant mixpanel.quarterly_time_buckets to bucket events by calendar quarters. For example:
function main() { return Events({ from_date: "2016-01-01", to_date: "2016-12-31", }).groupBy([ mixpanel.numeric_bucket('time', mixpanel.quarterly_time_buckets) ], mixpanel.reducer.count()); }
This will group your events by quarter mixpanel.numeric_bucket().
These methods allow you to analyze and visualize your data by quarters in Mixpanel.
