Connect a Mixpanel project to Modus so your event and user schema becomes context that Modus can reason over. Modus reads your project’s event and profile schema (Lexicon) — read-only — and stores your credentials encrypted in AWS Secrets Manager.

​
Prerequisites

Before you begin, make sure you have:
  • A Mixpanel project and its Project ID.
  • Its data residency region — United States (US) or European Union (EU).
  • A service account with read access to the project (see below).

​
Set up a service account

Modus authenticates with a Mixpanel service account.
1

Create the service account

In Mixpanel, open Organization Settings → Service Accounts and create a new service account with a role that can read the project (for example, Analyst or Consumer). Grant it access to the project you want to connect.
2

Copy the username and secret

Mixpanel shows the service account username and secret once. Copy both now — you’ll paste them into Modus.
3

Find your Project ID and region

Open Project Settings. Copy the Project ID, and note whether the project is hosted in the US or EU.

​

Verification

Your Mixpanel project is now connected. Modus turns your event and profile schema into context so Modus can answer product-analytics questions accurately. Need help? Contact us at support@getmodus.com.
Modus connects read-only and requests only the minimum access needed to understand your data. All credentials are encrypted and stored in AWS Secrets Manager — your secret is never stored in plaintext.
