Quick Start Guide

Check out our official documentation for more in depth information on installing and using Mixpanel on Android.

Installation

Dependencies in app/build.gradle

Add Mixpanel and Google Play Services to the dependencies section in app/build.gradle

compile "com.mixpanel.android:mixpanel-android:5.+"
compile "com.google.android.gms:play-services:7.5.0+"

Permissions in app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml

<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.INTERNET" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_NETWORK_STATE" />
<uses-permission android:name="android.permission.BLUETOOTH" />

Integration

Initialization

Initialize Mixpanel in your main activity app/src/main/java/com/mixpanel/example/myapplication/MainActivity.java. Usually this should be done in onCreate.

String projectToken = YOUR_PROJECT_TOKEN; // e.g.: "1ef7e30d2a58d27f4b90c42e31d6d7ad" 
MixpanelAPI mixpanel = MixpanelAPI.getInstance(this, projectToken);

Remember to replace YOUR_PROJECT_TOKEN with the token provided to you on mixpanel.com.

Tracking

With the mixpanel object created in the last step a call to track is all you need to start sending events to Mixpanel.

mixpanel.track("Event name no props")

JSONObject props = new JSONObject();
props.put("Prop name", "Prop value");
props.put("Prop 2", "Value 2");
mixpanel.track("Event name", props);
