How to Connect Mixpanel to Gemini

Query your Mixpanel data directly from Gemini using Sequel’s MCP server. Ask questions in plain English, with no SQL, no dashboards, and no context switching.

Short answer

Connect Mixpanel to Sequel, then add Sequel's MCP server to Gemini using the config on this page. Gemini can then query your live Mixpanel data in plain English, with no connector code and no CSV exports. Both steps take a few minutes.

Example prompts

Everything you can ask Gemini about your Mixpanel data.

Ask in plain English — Sequel translates it into a Mixpanel query, runs it, and Gemini hands back the answer. No SQL, no dashboards, no CSV exports.

What you can ask Gemini
  • How many users completed 'Subscription Started' last week, by plan?
  • Show me the signup → activation funnel conversion for the past 30 days.
  • Compare DAU for iOS vs Android over the last 60 days.
  • What's the average value of 'Order Placed' broken down by country?
  • Which step in funnel 4321 has the biggest drop-off?

How it works

Three steps to get started

1

Connect Mixpanel to Sequel

In your Sequel dashboard, go to Connections and add Mixpanel. Sequel handles authentication and schema discovery automatically.

2

Add Sequel to the agent

Copy the Sequel MCP configuration into Gemini's settings file (shown below). Swap in your API key from Settings → API Keys.

3

Ask Gemini about your data

Restart Gemini and start asking questions. "How many users completed 'Subscription Started' last week, by plan?" — and get a real answer backed by live Mixpanel data.

Why Gemini

What Gemini does with your Mixpanel data

Ground Gemini in your real data

Gemini with Sequel fetches live data from your databases before answering. Every number in the response is pulled from your actual data — not estimated or hallucinated.

Multi-modal analysis

Combine Gemini's multi-modal reasoning with Sequel's data access. Ask Gemini to analyze trends in your database data and produce a written summary, chart description, or presentation outline.

Build grounded AI apps faster

Developers building on the Gemini API can use Sequel as a data-access tool, giving their apps real-time database access without building custom integrations for every data source.

Configuration

Add Sequel to Gemini

Place this in Google AI Studio or Gemini API and replace sql_your_api_key with a key from Settings → API Keys.

Google AI Studio or Gemini API

# Gemini API (tool_config)
{
  "tool_config": {
    "function_calling_config": {
      "mode": "AUTO"
    }
  },
  "tools": [
    {
      "url_context": {
        "mcp_server_url": "https://api.sequel.sh/mcp",
        "headers": {
          "Authorization": "Bearer sql_your_api_key"
        }
      }
    }
  ]
}

Install

Install Mixpanel MCP in Gemini

Pick your app and Sequel installs itself: a one-click link where the client supports it, that client’s own few steps where it doesn’t. Every route signs in with your Sequel account over OAuth, so there is no API key to copy and nothing to keep in sync.

Already have an MCP client?

https://api.sequel.sh/mcp

Add it as a remote (streamable HTTP) server and sign in when prompted. Skills come with it; nothing else to install. Manual setup per client

Add Sequel to Gemini CLI

Terminal

gemini mcp add --transport http sequel https://api.sequel.sh/mcp
  1. 1Run the command in your terminal. Add --scope user to add it to every project.
  2. 2Start Gemini CLI and run /mcp auth sequel. Sign in in the browser.
  3. 3Run /mcp to see the tools, then ask a question.

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect Mixpanel to Gemini?

You need two things: (1) connect Mixpanel to Sequel in your Sequel dashboard under Connections, and (2) add the Sequel MCP config to Gemini using the setup shown above. Once both are done, Gemini can query your Mixpanel data directly.

What Mixpanel data can Gemini access?

Gemini can access any data available through your Mixpanel connection in Sequel. Use Sequel's search tool to discover available metrics and dimensions, then execute queries to pull the data you need.

Is my Mixpanel data sent to Gemini's servers?

Query results are returned to Gemini as context within your conversation. Only the data you explicitly ask about is retrieved. Sequel never stores your query results permanently — they exist only for the duration of the tool call.

Do I need a Sequel account?

Yes. You need a Sequel account to connect Mixpanel and generate an API key. Sign up free at sequel.sh — no credit card required. Then create a connection to Mixpanel and generate an API key from Settings → API Keys.

Can I connect multiple Mixpanel accounts?

Yes. Sequel supports multiple connections of the same type. If you have multiple Mixpanel accounts or properties, add each as a separate connection in Sequel. Gemini will be able to query all of them.

How do I connect Gemini to Sequel?

Gemini's MCP support is available through Google AI Studio and the Gemini API. In AI Studio, go to Settings → Extensions and add the Sequel MCP server URL. For the API, include the MCP server in your tool_config as shown above.

Which Gemini models support MCP?

MCP tool use is supported on Gemini 1.5 Pro, Gemini 2.0 Flash, and newer models. Check Google's latest documentation for the current list of models with MCP/tool use support.

Can I use Sequel with Gemini in Google Workspace?

Gemini for Google Workspace (Docs, Sheets, Gmail) has a different extension model. Sequel MCP currently targets the Gemini API and AI Studio. Enterprise Workspace integrations may be available in future.

Is this suitable for building production apps with Gemini?

Yes. You can use Sequel MCP in Gemini API applications by passing it as a tool. This is ideal for building internal tools, dashboards, or customer-facing AI features that need real database access.

How do I connect Mixpanel to Sequel?

Create a Service Account in Mixpanel under Organization Settings → Service Accounts with at least project-level read access. Copy the username (looks like `my-sa.abc123.mp-service-account`) and the secret shown once at creation, then paste both into Sequel along with your numeric project ID and region.

Why a Service Account instead of an OAuth login?

Service Accounts are the long-lived, scope-limited credential Mixpanel recommends for programmatic access. They can be revoked or rotated independently of any user's login, and they don't break when a teammate leaves. Sequel uses HTTP Basic auth with the service account username and secret.

Which Mixpanel region should I pick?

Use the region your project was created in. US projects use mixpanel.com / data.mixpanel.com. EU projects use eu.mixpanel.com / data-eu.mixpanel.com. The region toggle simply chooses which API host Sequel calls — pick the wrong one and you'll see 401s or empty results.

Can Sequel modify data in Mixpanel?

No. The connector only ships read-only tools: segmentation, funnel report, list funnels, list events, list event properties, and raw event export. The agent has no write surface, so it cannot create reports, funnels, or cohorts.
