Based on the knowledge sources provided, I can answer your question about using a group distinct ID as the key for a lookup table in Mixpanel.No, you cannot use a group distinct ID as the key for a lookup table in Mixpanel. According to the Lookup Tables FAQ, group profile properties cannot be used as lookup table keys: "Note: Currently, group profile properties cannot be lookup table keys."Additionally, the documentation advises against using lookup tables for high cardinality IDs or as a way to mutate events. Instead, it recommends using Group Profiles for group-level data and User Profiles for user-level data.If you need to analyze data at a group level, Mixpanel offers Group Analytics as a separate feature. This allows you to establish an event property other than the distinct_id, such as a company ID or account ID, as an identifier for group-level analysis. However, this is different from using it as a lookup table key.For more information on Group Analytics, you can refer to the Group Analytics documentation.
