As a free Mixpanel user, you can indeed drop events in Lexicon, but there are some limitations to be aware of.According to the documentation, dropping events is a feature available in Lexicon that allows you to intercept and prevent new data for specific events from being stored in Mixpanel. This feature is primarily used for: - Removing sensitive data that was accidentally sent - Cost and time efficiency by eliminating unnecessary events - Better organization of your Mixpanel projectThe ability to drop events is available to project owners, as mentioned in the documentation: "Only project owners can drop events and properties." Lexicon: Dropping DataIf you're finding that some events can be dropped while others cannot, there could be a few reasons: 1. You might not have project owner permissions for certain events 2. Some events might be system events that Mixpanel doesn't allow to be dropped 3. There might be a delay in processing - the documentation notes: "It takes a few hours for Mixpanel to process the dropped event"It's important to note that dropping an event is permanent - you cannot recover event data after you drop it, though you can "undrop" an event to start collecting new data for it again.If you're still having issues with specific events that you can't drop, you might want to check your permissions or contact Mixpanel support for more specific guidance.
