Based on the information you've provided and the knowledge sources available, there could be a few reasons why you're not seeing any properties to select when creating an event filter in Mixpanel. Let's go through some possible explanations and solutions:
1. Recent Data Ingestion: Mixpanel's report dropdown menus hide events that have not been fired within the last 30 days Debugging: Missing or Incomplete Events. If your events are very recent and haven't been processed yet, they might not appear in the dropdown menus.
2. Hidden Events: Check if the events have been hidden in Lexicon. Project Owner and Admin users can hide events in your Mixpanel project through Lexicon Debugging: Missing or Incomplete Events.
3. Case Sensitivity: Mixpanel is case-sensitive Debugging: Validate your data and troubleshoot your implementation. Ensure that the event name "visit" is exactly as you've sent it.
4. Data Ingestion Issues: There might be issues with how the data is being sent to Mixpanel. Make sure that your events are being properly tracked and sent to Mixpanel Debugging: Validate your data and troubleshoot your implementation.
To troubleshoot this issue:
1. Check Events View: Use the Events view in Mixpanel to confirm that events are arriving in your Mixpanel project Debugging: Validate your data and troubleshoot your implementation.
2. Search for the Event: Try typing the exact name of the event ("visit") in the dropdown menu. It should appear even if it's not in the autocomplete list Reports Overview.
3. Verify Implementation: Double-check your implementation to ensure that events are being sent correctly. You might want to use a test project to validate your event data Debugging: Validate your data and troubleshoot your implementation.
4. Check for Limits: Ensure you haven't exceeded the limit of 5000 distinct event names. If you have, new event names won't be indexed Events: Capture behaviors and actions.
If you've verified all these points and are still experiencing issues, it might be best to contact Mixpanel support for further assistance, as they can look into your specific project setup and data.
