## Connect Mixpanel in Elaichi

This happens once for the organization, before any client is involved.

1. Open Connections, choose Add connection, and pick Mixpanel.
2. Optionally set Share with, then press Connect.
3. Approve it in Mixpanel. Mixpanel's own window opens. Whoever approves it decides what this connection can reach.

Credentials are vaulted and nobody, including the AI, reads them back. The connection becomes a toolbox immediately, so you can curate which Mixpanel tools are exposed, rename them, or freeze arguments before anyone points a client at it.

## Mixpanel MCP connector for Claude

Endpoint: https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp

1. Open Customize, then Connectors.
2. Press Add.
3. Name it, paste the MCP server URL, then Continue.
4. Sign in and approve.

On Team and Enterprise, an Owner adds it once. Everyone else turns it on for themselves.

## Mixpanel MCP connector for ChatGPT

Endpoint: https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp

1. Open Plugins, then press the + button.
2. Name it and paste the endpoint into Server URL.
3. Leave Authentication on OAuth, then tick the risk acknowledgement.
4. Press Create, then sign in and approve.

Works on the web today. The plugin directory lives at chatgpt.com/plugins.

## Mixpanel MCP connector for Cursor

Endpoint: https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp

1. Open `~/.cursor/mcp.json`.
2. Add the endpoint under `mcpServers`.
3. Reload Cursor, then sign in and approve.

Set up per machine, so repeat it on each computer you work from.

## Connect Mixpanel to any MCP client

Endpoint: https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp

1. Add the endpoint as a remote MCP server.
2. Sign in and approve.

The Elaichi Agent already has these tools, with nothing to set up.

## What the consent screen decides

Only Read is granted by default, which is not enough to call a Mixpanel tool. Over MCP there is no trusted place to confirm a write in the moment, so the consent screen is the standing approval rather than a formality. Grant Read and Run tools. Think hard before granting Delete, which reaches into connected apps and cannot be undone.

## What teams do with Mixpanel through Elaichi

### Check a funnel without opening Mixpanel

Product. Ask how signup to activation looked this week and get the numbers from a live query, then pull the saved report when someone wants the detail.

### Spot which events moved after a launch

Growth. Compare event volumes before and after a release and find the properties that explain the change, all from a short question.

### Build the campaign dashboard in minutes

Marketing. Create a dashboard for the new campaign, add the reports that matter, and duplicate it for the next region when the pattern works.

### Keep the lexicon clean and documented

Data. Find undocumented events and properties, write descriptions in bulk, and tag them so the rest of the organization knows what each one means.

### See how an account uses the product

Customer success. Ask which features a customer touched last month and how often, then bring the answer into the renewal call.

### Get the weekly numbers in plain language

Leadership. Ask for active users, retention, and the top events across projects and get a readable summary pulled from the live dashboards.

## Frequently asked questions

### How do I connect Mixpanel to Claude?

Connect Mixpanel in Elaichi first: Mixpanel opens its own sign-in page, you sign in and approve access, and the connection is ready. There is no OAuth application to register and no client ID or secret to generate. Then in Claude go to Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp.

### Does Mixpanel work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. Once Mixpanel is connected in Elaichi, the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, works in Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any MCP client, and the Elaichi Agent. You connect Mixpanel once and every client uses it.

### What can an AI agent actually do with my Mixpanel data?

With Mixpanel connected, an agent can run queries on events and funnels, pull a saved report, create or update a dashboard, look up event and property definitions, and edit or tag them in bulk. It can also list your projects and find entities by name. Short, concrete asks such as "signups by country last week" work better than long paragraphs.

### Does connecting Mixpanel give the AI access to every project?

No. The agent sees only the Mixpanel projects and reports the signed-in person can already see, with the same role Mixpanel grants them. Elaichi can narrow that further with restrictions, but it never widens what a person's Mixpanel account allows.

### Can my team share one Mixpanel connection?

Yes. One person connects Mixpanel in Elaichi and shares it with a team, and nobody else handles a credential. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so the audit log names the person who ran each Mixpanel query or edited each event.

### Can I stop an agent from deleting dashboards or editing events in Mixpanel?

Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi apply per action, so you can allow reading Mixpanel reports while blocking dashboard deletion or bulk edits to events and properties. A restricted action is never shown to the AI client at all, so no prompt can reach it.

### What happens to a Mixpanel connection when someone leaves?

Offboarding that person in Elaichi ends their access to Mixpanel through every client at once. A shared Mixpanel connection keeps working for everyone else on the team. If you disconnect Mixpanel in Elaichi, it is removed from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and every other client in one step.

### Does the Mixpanel MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?

Yes. Mixpanel is reached over the same MCP endpoint every client uses, so anything that speaks MCP can call it — Gemini, Codex, Claude Code, Windsurf, Cline, Zed and OpenCode among them — alongside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and the Elaichi Agent. The tools on offer and the access behind them are identical whichever client asks. Only the setup screen differs.

### Is Elaichi an alternative to Zapier MCP for Mixpanel?

Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use Mixpanel. Zapier MCP fits a team that already automates in Zapier, since each person signs in and acts as themselves in that account. Elaichi fits when IT wants one address for the whole company, per-tool rules by role, and a record of every Mixpanel call.

### How is Elaichi different from Composio for Mixpanel?

Composio gives AI agents tools and sign-in handling across 1,000+ apps, for developers building agents or people using an assistant, billed per tool call. Elaichi gives a company's own people governed access to Mixpanel: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
