php - Why I cannot create alias in Mixpanel? -


in mixpanel have user have automatic distinct_id 145dsfds-sdfsdf (example). want create alias user 1234

my php code:

require ('mixpanel/mixpanel.php'); $original_id = '145dsfds-sdfsdf'; // example original $uid = 1234; $token = '2j34j3j4j3j'; // token of project on mixpanel  $_mp = new mixpanel($token); $_mp->createalias($original_id,  $uid); $_mp->people->set($uid, array(     'uid'   => $uid )); 

after run, go mixpanel , filter people id 1234 , retrieve no result. if visualize details of user 145dsfds-sdfsdf, property uid have value 1234.

i don't understand what's happening.

the root of issue here mixpanel's alias function designed remap uid original_id not reverse.

essentially, if alias made, distinct_id see in live-view original_id, not uid.

the alias function allows tie pre-authentication events post-authentication events without needing edit events stored in mixpanel (events immutable once in project).
