What should I do when users log out?


I am setting Mixpanel up, and I found out that if I log in with a user (and identify that user), log out and then re-register as a new user, the new user's details overwrite the previously logged in user (presumably when I call alias). How can I tell mixpanel that a user has logged out and to reset the identity token (make it anonymous again)?


Solution

  • It was released on Mixpanel Javascript version v2.8.0 the mixpanel.reset() function, so that's officially what should be called on user logout. See https://github.com/mixpanel/mixpanel-js/issues/67 .
