Quick summary
Mixpanel annotations let you mark specific data points on a line chart with timestamped notes, making it easy to correlate metric changes with real-world events. This feature helps product and analytics teams add context directly inside their reports without leaving the platform.
Steps
- Open a report in Mixpanel by clicking on its header space.
- Hover your cursor over the line chart to reveal a marker on the graph and a (+) icon below it indicating the exact point you can annotate.
- Click the (+) icon to open the Add Annotation dialog.
- Enter your annotation text and a timestamp, then click Save.
- View your saved annotations by clicking the annotated point, which displays a count of all notes added to that data point.
