# Dashboard Expert
Analyze, build, modify, and explain Mixpanel dashboards. Four modes — pick the one matching the user's intent.
## Mode Selection
| User intent | Mode | Key actions |
|---|---|---|
| "analyze/understand/read/explore dashboard" | **Analyze** | Read structure, execute reports, summarize |
| "build/create/make a new dashboard" | **Build** | Investigate data → plan → create with layout |
| "modify/update/add to/fix/improve dashboard" | **Modify** | Read current state → plan changes → execute |
| "explain/annotate/add insights to dashboard" | **Explain** | Analyze → generate data-driven text cards |
## Quick Start: Analyze an Existing Dashboard
```python
import json, re
import mixpanel_headless as mp
ws = mp.Workspace()
dash = ws.get_dashboard(DASHBOARD_ID)
layout, contents = dash.layout, dash.contents
# Extract structure: rows → cells → content items
for row_id in layout["order"]:
row = layout["rows"][row_id]
for cell in row["cells"]:
cid, ctype = str(cell["content_id"]), cell["content_type"]
if ctype in ("report", "report-link"):
info = contents["report"][cid]
print(f" [{cell['width']}w] {info['name']} ({info['type']}) {'[linked]' if ctype == 'report-link' else ''}")
elif ctype == "text":
md = contents["text"][cid].get("markdown", "")
is_header = bool(re.search(r'<h2[\s>]', md, re.I))
print(f" [{cell['width']}w] TEXT {'[SECTION]' if is_header else ''}: {md[:60]}...")
# Execute each report → DataFrame
for cid, info in contents.get("report", {}).items():
btype, bid = info["type"], info["id"]
if btype == "flows":
result = ws.query_saved_flows(bid)
else:
result = ws.query_saved_report(bid, bookmark_type=btype)
df = result.df
print(f"{info['name']}: {len(df)} rows, columns={list(df.columns)}")
```
## Quick Start: Build a New Dashboard
```python
from mixpanel_headless.types import CreateDashboardParams, DashboardRow, DashboardRowContent
import json
ws = mp.Workspace()
dau = ws.query("Login", math="dau", last=90)
def text(html):
return DashboardRowContent(content_type="text", content_params={"markdown": html})
def report(name, btype, result):
return DashboardRowContent(content_type="report", content_params={
"bookmark": {"name": name, "type": btype, "params": json.dumps(result.params)}})
dashboard = ws.create_dashboard(CreateDashboardParams(
title="Product Health", description="Core metrics.",
rows=[
DashboardRow(contents=[text("<h2>Product Health</h2><p>Core metrics.</p>")]),
DashboardRow(contents=[report("DAU (90d)", "insights", dau)]),
],
))
ws.pin_dashboard(dashboard.id) # Make visible to team
```
---
## Mode: Analyze
Read existing dashboards, execute their reports, and synthesize understanding.
### Phase A1: Read Dashboard Structure
```python
dash = ws.get_dashboard(dashboard_id)
layout, contents = dash.layout, dash.contents
```
Parse the response into a structured representation:
- **`layout["order"]`** — ordered list of row IDs
- **`layout["rows"][row_id]["cells"]`** — cells with `content_id`, `content_type`, `width`
- **`contents["report"][str(content_id)]`** — report metadata: `id` (bookmark_id), `name`, `type`, `params`, `description`
- **`contents["text"][str(content_id)]`** — text card: `markdown`
**Classify each cell:**
- `content_type == "report"` → owned, editable
- `content_type == "report-link"` → linked from another dashboard, read-only
- `content_type == "text"` → text card; detect section headers via `re.search(r'<h2[\s>]', md, re.I)`
**Build a mental model:** Group reports by section (text cards with `<h2>` tags delimit sections). Note each report's chart type, width, and position.
### Phase A2: Extract Report Details
For deeper understanding, fetch full bookmark params:
```python
bookmark = ws.get_bookmark(bookmark_id)
params = bookmark.params # Full query definition dict
```
Key fields in params (Insights format):
- `params["sections"]["show"]` — metrics with event names and math type
- `params["sections"]["group"]` — breakdown properties
- `params["sections"]["filter"]` — active filters
- `params["sections"]["time"]` — date range
- `params["displayOptions"]["chartType"]` — visualization type
Note: `params` in `contents["report"][id]` may be a JSON string — parse with `json.loads()` if needed.
### Phase A3: Execute and Summarize
Execute each report to get live data:
```python
for cid, info in contents.get("report", {}).items():
bid, btype = info["id"], info["type"]
if btype == "flows":
result = ws.query_saved_flows(bid)
else:
result = ws.query_saved_report(bid, bookmark_type=btype)
df = result.df
```
**Summarize by report type:**
| Type | Key metrics to extract |
|---|---|
| insights | Total, average, latest value, min, max, trend direction |
| funnels | Step names, counts, per-step and overall conversion rate |
| retention | Day 1, Day 7, Day 30 rates; stabilization point |
| flows | Top paths, conversion rate, drop-off points |
**Cross-correlate across reports:** Look for relationships — DAU trends vs. retention, funnel drop-off vs. feature adoption.
### Phase A4: Present Analysis
Structure findings as:
1. **Dashboard overview** — title, purpose, section count, report count
2. **Section-by-section breakdown** — what each section measures, key findings
3. **Cross-metric insights** — correlations, anomalies, patterns
4. **Suggestions** — missing metrics, better chart types, layout improvements
### Multi-Dashboard Analysis
When analyzing multiple dashboards, build a unified picture:
```python
dashboard_ids = [1001, 1002, 1003]
all_data = {}
for did in dashboard_ids:
dash = ws.get_dashboard(did)
for cid, info in dash.contents.get("report", {}).items():
result = ws.query_saved_report(info["id"], bookmark_type=info["type"])
all_data[f"{dash.title}/{info['name']}"] = result.df
# Cross-dashboard: join DataFrames on date index, compute correlations
```
---
## Mode: Build
Create new dashboards from scratch. Five phases.
### Phase B1: Investigate
Before building, discover the data. Never build reports for events with zero volume.
```python
ws = mp.Workspace()
top = ws.top_events(limit=15)
for t in top:
print(f"{t.event}: {t.count:,} ({t.percent_change:+.1%})")
# Validate candidate events
for event in candidate_events:
result = ws.query(event, from_date="2025-01-01", to_date="2025-03-31")
print(f"{event}: {result.df['count'].sum():,.0f} total")
# Explore properties for breakdowns
props = ws.properties(event="key_event")
values = ws.property_values(event="key_event", property="platform", limit=20)
```
### Phase B2: Plan Structure
Present a proposed structure before building. Choose a template from `references/dashboard-templates.md`.
**A plan includes:** title + description, sections with text card headers, reports per section with chart type, grid layout.
**Text cards use HTML** (not markdown). Every dashboard must have an intro text card and section headers.
**Allowed HTML tags:** `<h1>`, `<h2>`, `<h3>`, `<p>`, `<strong>`, `<em>`, `<u>`, `<s>`, `<mark>`, `<code>`, `<blockquote>`, `<hr>`, `<br>`, `<ul>`, `<ol>`, `<li>`, `<a href="...">`
**Forbidden (stripped):** `<div>`, `<span>`, `<b>` (use `<strong>`), `<i>` (use `<em>`), `<img>`, `<table>`
**Critical:** Strip `\n` and collapse whitespace from HTML before sending. Each element renders as its own line.
**Text card patterns:**
```
Intro: <h2>Dashboard Title</h2><p>What and why. Time period: last 90 days.</p>
Section: <h2>Acquisition</h2><p>How users discover and sign up.</p>
Explainer: <p>^ Signup conversion is <strong>23.4%</strong>, up 2.1pp.</p>
```
### Phase B3: Query and Build
Query each metric, verify data, then create with layout in one call.
```python
def text(html):
return DashboardRowContent(content_type="text", content_params={"markdown": html})
def report(name, btype, result, description=None):
params = {"bookmark": {"name": name, "type": btype, "params": json.dumps(result.params)}}
if description:
params["bookmark"]["description"] = description
return DashboardRowContent(content_type="report", content_params=params)
dashboard = ws.create_dashboard(CreateDashboardParams(
title="Product Health Dashboard",
description="Key metrics for product health monitoring.",
rows=[
DashboardRow(contents=[text("<h2>Product Health</h2><p>Updated daily.</p>")]),
DashboardRow(contents=[
report("DAU (90d)", "insights", dau),
report("Signups (90d)", "insights", signups),
report("Revenue (90d)", "insights", revenue),
]),
DashboardRow(contents=[text("<h2>Conversion</h2><p>Key funnels.</p>")]),
DashboardRow(contents=[report("Signup Funnel", "funnels", funnel)]),
],
))
```
**On report failure**, substitute a fallback text card:
```python
try:
result = ws.query(event, math="total", last=90)
row_items.append(report(f"{event} Trend", "insights", result))
except Exception as e:
row_items.append(text(f"<p><strong>Failed:</strong> {event} — {e}</p>"))
```
### Phase B4: Enhance
- **Pin for team visibility:** `ws.pin_dashboard(dashboard.id)` — dashboards are invisible by default
- **Favorite for personal use:** `ws.favorite_dashboard(dashboard.id)`
- **Add explainer cards:** see Mode: Explain
- **Adjust heights:** see `references/dashboard-reference.md` Section 3.4
### Phase B5: Verify
Open the dashboard and confirm all reports render with data, text cards display correctly, and layout matches the plan.
---
## Mode: Modify
Update existing dashboards. Read first, then apply changes in the correct order.
### Phase M1: Read Current State
Use Analyze Phase A1-A2 to understand the dashboard's structure. Present to user before making changes.
### Phase M2: Plan Changes
Classify each change and plan execution order. Operations **must** follow this sequence:
1. **Metadata** (title/description) — standalone PATCH
2. **Cell creates** — add new content first
3. **Row reorder** (`rows_order`) — after creates so temp IDs resolve
4. **Cell updates** — modify existing content
5. **Cell deletes** — remove content
6. **Row deletes** — remove entire rows last
### Phase M3: Execute Changes
**Adding content to a specific existing row** — send `content` AND `layout` together:
```python
import copy
dash = ws.get_dashboard(dashboard_id)
layout = copy.deepcopy(dash.layout)
target_row = layout["rows"][target_row_id]
# Redistribute widths
new_count = len(target_row["cells"]) + 1
cell_width = 12 // new_count
for cell in target_row["cells"]:
cell["width"] = cell_width
target_row["cells"].append({"temp_id": "-1", "width": cell_width})
ws.update_dashboard(dashboard_id, UpdateDashboardParams(
content={"action": "create", "content_type": "report",
"content_params": {"bookmark": {"name": "New Report", "type": "insights",
"params": json.dumps(result.params)}}},
layout={"rows_order": layout["order"], "rows": layout["rows"]},
))
```
**Adding content as a new row** — content action alone (appends to bottom):
```python
ws.update_dashboard(dashboard_id, UpdateDashboardParams(
content={"action": "create", "content_type": "text",
"content_params": {"markdown": "<p>^ Explainer card.</p>"}},
))
```
**Deleting content:**
```python
ws.update_dashboard(dashboard_id, UpdateDashboardParams(
content={"action": "delete", "content_type": "report", "content_id": content_id},
))
```
**Cross-type updates** (e.g., text → report): API rejects changing `content_type` on update. Delete the old cell, then create the new one.
See `references/dashboard-reference.md` Section 8 for temp ID resolution, operation ordering details, and report-link semantics.
---
## Mode: Explain
Combine analysis with targeted text card insertion.
1. **Analyze** — run Mode: Analyze to extract structure and execute reports
2. **Generate insights** — for each report, compute key metrics from the DataFrame:
```python
latest = df.iloc[-1]["count"]
prev = df.iloc[-8]["count"]
trend = ((latest - prev) / prev) * 100
html = (f"<p>^ DAU is <strong>{latest:,.0f}</strong>, "
f"{'up' if trend > 0 else 'down'} <strong>{abs(trend):.1f}%</strong> "
f"vs. last week.</p>").replace("\n", "")
```
3. **Insert cards** — add as new rows below each report section:
```python
ws.update_dashboard(dashboard_id, UpdateDashboardParams(
content={"action": "create", "content_type": "text",
"content_params": {"markdown": html}},
))
```
---
## Critical Gotchas
1. **Combined content+layout PATCH** — send both `content` and `layout` in the same `UpdateDashboardParams` to add cells to specific existing rows. Without `layout`, new content appends as a full-width row at the bottom.
2. **Width auto-redistribution** — when adding to an existing row with N cells, set all cells (including new) to `12 // (N+1)` width.
3. **Update operation ordering** — metadata → cell creates → rows_order → cell updates → cell deletes → row deletes. Wrong order causes failures.
4. **`per_user` requires `math_property`** — using per-user aggregation without a numeric property raises `BookmarkValidationError`.
5. **`CreateBookmarkParams(dashboard_id=X)` does NOT add to layout** — use `add_report_to_dashboard()` or inline content action.
6. **`add_report_to_dashboard()` CLONES** — creates "Duplicate of..." copy. Use `rows` in `CreateDashboardParams` or inline content action instead.
7. **GET `order` vs PATCH `rows_order`** — layout from GET uses `order`; PATCH expects `rows_order`.
8. **Never include `version` in layout PATCH** — the API rejects it.
9. **Strip `\n` and collapse whitespace** — call `.replace("\n", "").strip()` on text card HTML. Newlines cause TipTap to mangle content.
10. **Limits** — title 255 chars, description 400 chars, text cards 2,000 chars, max 4 items/row, max 30 rows.
11. **Cross-type cell updates require delete+create** — API rejects changing `content_type` on an update action.
12. **Report-link cells are read-only** — `content_type: "report-link"` references a report owned by another dashboard. You can view but not edit its params.
13. **Auto-pin after creation** — dashboards are invisible to the team by default. Call `ws.pin_dashboard(dashboard.id)`.
14. **The `markdown` field accepts only HTML** — despite the name. Markdown syntax renders as literal text.
