v3.4.7 - Improved identity management support
Mixpanel identify ([mixpanel identify:aDistinctId];
) now sends a special $identify event to the API. This is not treated like a regular tracking event, but will aid in future platform improvements to support advanced identity management (linking anonymous and logged-in usage, multiple users on one system, etc.).
if more than one user can be identified in your app (ie log-out/log-in scenarios) make sure you call reset() when a user logs-out and that you add MIXPANEL_RANDOM_DISTINCT_ID pre-processor macro in your build settings so anonymous users don't have the same distinct_id (IFA/IFV by default)
