This guide is for the Mixpanel MCP connector (per-user session context). It is not an org-wide Integration. For Context ingestion and Signals, see What integrations bring in.
Propane connects to Mixpanel using a service account generated from your Mixpanel project. The setup takes about a minute.

​
Where to find connectors in Propane

There are two ways to reach the connectors panel: From a chat session — Click the + icon in the composer and select Connectors. A side panel opens showing every connector available in Propane. Find Mixpanel in the list to start setup. From Settings — Go to Settings → Connectors. You will see the full list of available connectors, including Mixpanel. Click Connect to begin. Both paths lead to the same setup flow. Once you have opened it, follow the steps below to create a service account in Mixpanel and connect it to Propane.
1

Create a service account in Mixpanel

In Mixpanel, go to Settings → Project settings, choose the project you want Propane to access, and open the Service Accounts tab.Connect one project at a time. Service accounts are scoped to a single project, so set up the connection for the specific project you want Propane to read from. If you want Propane to access multiple projects, you will repeat this process for each.Name it something recognisable — propane_connector works well. This makes the account easy to identify and revoke later if you need to.
2

Set the role

In Mixpanel, a service account’s role controls what it can see and do in the project — Mixpanel’s equivalent of scopes. Propane only needs to read from Mixpanel; it never writes back.We recommend the Consumer role. This gives Propane read access to the data it needs without any ability to modify dashboards, change project settings, or affect anything else in your Mixpanel workspace. Avoid granting anything higher than Consumer unless you have a specific reason to.

Create the account and copy the credentials

When you create the service account, Mixpanel will show you a username and secret. You will need both to connect.
The secret is only shown once. Copy it before closing the dialog. If you lose it, you will need to delete the service account and create a new one.
You will also need your Mixpanel project ID, which Mixpanel displays alongside the service account details (and in your project settings).

Add the credentials to Propane

Return to the Connectors panel in Propane (either via the + in the composer or from Settings → Connectors). Find Mixpanel, and paste in the username, secret, and project ID from Mixpanel.
That is it — Propane will start pulling context from your selected project on your next session.
