Real-Time Event Streams are in Beta. Contact your Mixpanel account team to enable the feature for your project.
Every Stream and Destination has an explicit state that is visible without opening the detail view. This page is the reference for what each state means, how state transitions are logged, and which metrics you can use to monitor health.

​
Stream states

Stream state is shown as a status badge on the Syncs list view.
When a Stream is disabled, events matching the filter are discarded. Mixpanel does not accumulate a backlog to replay when the Stream is re-enabled.

​
Destination states

Authentication failures on delivery immediately flip the Destination to auth_error. Re-authenticating updates the existing Destination in place; you do not need to delete and recreate it. See Webhook authentication.

​
Audit logging

All state changes are audit-logged with a timestamp and the acting user. Use the audit log to trace who paused a Stream, when credentials were rotated, or when a Destination first tripped into auth_error.

Delivery and reliability

Retry policy, failed events log, and at-least-once delivery.

Set up a Sync

Create a Destination and configure a webhook Sync.
