Mixpanel
The Mixpanel Plugin lets you track your user's activity in the app. The snippet is automatically added to the pages when you install the plugin, so do not add it yourself because Mixpanel will fail if the snippet is added more than once.
Send an event to Mixpanel
This action sends an event to Mixpanel to track what's going on with the app. You can send specific values to Mixpanel with this action. You must create an account with Mixpanel and enter the keys in the Plugins Tab.

Setup
After installing the Mixpanel plugin from the plugins gallery, you will be prompted to enter different keys from Mixpanel.
Here's an article from Mixpanel on where to find the necessary keys. You should copy and paste these into the settings for the plugin in the Plugins tab, and you can decide whether to use the same or different keys for your app's development vs. live versions.
(Note that in many cases you don't need to fill in the "API Key" field in the plugin's settings. It's worth testing out the plugin with just the Token and API Secret to see if that's sufficient for you.)
