Viewed app screen

Customer viewed a page on the website

Type: Activity Transformation

SELECT
    e.event_id || e.time  as activity_id

    , e.time as ts

     , e.distinct_id_before_identity AS "anonymous_customer_id"
    
    , e.email AS "customer"
    
    , 'viewed_app_screen' as activity

    , e.referrer as feature_2
    , NULL as feature_3
    
    , null as revenue_impact
    , e.current_url as link

FROM mp.event e
where e.name = 'Viewed Screen'

WARNING: Mixpanel doesn't actually guarantee that event_id is unique. If you capture and insert the event_id into another table, you will see that the same event_id is reused. We recommend that you concatenate the time with a event_id to create a unique id.

Processing Configuration:

  • Run After: Started Session
    Why? Setting this transformation to run after the session will ensure that page views will be used to define sessions only AFTER the identity resolution is applied.



Started Session

A customer Started a session in your product. A session defined by google is 30 minutes of inactivity

Type: Activity Transformation

SELECT
	 activity_id
	 , date_add ( 'second' , -1 , ts ) AS "ts"
	 , anonymous_customer_id
	 , customer
	 , 'started_session' AS "activity"
	 , event_name as feature_1
	 , NULL AS feature_2
	 , NULL AS feature_3
	 , NULL AS revenue_impact
	 , link
FROM (
 SELECT
    e.event_id || e.time  as activity_id

    , e.time as ts

     , e.distinct_id_before_identity AS "anonymous_customer_id"
    
    , e.email AS "customer"
    
    , e.os as feature_1
    , e.referrer as feature_2
    , NULL as feature_3
    
    , null as revenue_impact
    , e.current_url as link
	  , e.name as event_name
  	, lag (e.time) over ( partition by NVL(e.distinct_id_before_identity, e.email) order by e.time ) AS "last_ts"

FROM mp.event e
where e.name = 'Viewed Screen'
) AS s

WHERE date_diff ( 'minutes' , last_ts , s.ts ) >=30 
	OR last_ts is null

Why do we subtract 1 second from the session?

We are using the first page_view to represent a session but technically a session starts right before that. We subtract 1 second to handle that case. This ensures that saying give me all page views after a session returns the first page view too.


Processing Configuration:

  • Depends On: Viewed Page
    Why? Every time the viewed page activity's definition is updated or the transformation is resynced it will also update the started session activities
