Description

Mixpanel is returning raw data in this format:

Data returned from this endpoint is JSONL (newline-delimited JSON). Most receiving client libraries will automatically assume it gets a JSON string back and attempt to decode it. This specific API does not return valid JSON in aggregate, but each row is valid JSON within the API's output. Thus, raw exports, once received in full, should be parsed line-by-line instead of as an array of JSON objects. https://mixpanel.com/help/reference/exporting-raw-data

Will this format be supported in the near future? Thanks
