Event Structure

​
Standard Events

All standard events are sent with Mixpanel-optimized formatting. Here’s what FunnelFox automatically sends to Mixpanel: 
// This is sent automatically by FunnelFox when a user views a page:
mixpanel.track('screen_presented', {
  distinct_id: "fnlfx_abc123",
  $browser: "Chrome",
  $device: "Desktop",
  funnel_id: "welcome-flow",
  funnel_alias: "Welcome Flow",
  page_index: 0,
  page_id: "intro",
  sandbox: false
});

​
Special Event Handling

Mixpanel applies special processing to certain events:
EventMixpanel FeaturePurpose
screen_presentedSuper PropertiesPersists page context
purchase_completed_successRevenue trackingAppears in revenue reports
user_email_collectedProfile updateCreates user profile

​
User Identification

​
Distinct ID

  • Format: fnlfx_{profile_id}
  • Consistent across all sessions
  • Links anonymous and identified users

​
User Profiles

When email is collected, Mixpanel creates a user profile with:
  • $email: User’s email address
  • $created: First seen timestamp
  • funnel_source: Initial funnel
  • Custom properties from your funnel

​
Preview Mode Handling

Mixpanel properly segregates test data. Events from preview mode are marked with sandbox: true and can be filtered in reports.
To view only production data:
  1. Create a filter: sandbox equals false
  2. Save as a board for easy access
  3. Apply to all reports and funnels

​
Custom Tracking

You can add custom tracking in your funnel code: 
// Track custom events from your funnel's custom code:
fox.track('Video Watched', {
  video_id: 'intro-video',
  duration: 120,
  completion_rate: 0.75
});
FunnelFox automatically handles standard events. Use fox.track() only for custom events specific to your funnel.
