Why am I not able see Web platform users while filtering it for the "Start session" event?

When I select the amplitude event “Start Session” I can see the platform of individual users by clicking on view users and going to their User look-up. But for the same event (Start session) when I filter users by clicking on “+where” and select “platform” and then select web users, no users are shown and the chart says “No chart preview available”. Any reason why is it showing this and how can I fix it? Thanks in advance.

How to display multiple shared dashboards into one dashboard?

Hello, I am looking for a way to organize all of the externally shared dashboards. Ideally create some sort of central tracker in amplitude that contains the links to each of the dashboards / passwords. Any ideas or tips would be much appreciated.

LTV over more than 12 months

Is there any way to look at customer LTV over more than a 12 month period? A lot of our customers stick around for a good few years, so by just looking at 12 months it feels impossible to get a real idea of their value?

User session: 2 methods to get sessions data for same time range, but data discrepancy is >5%. What are the difference in methodology?

Hi amplitude experts, I need some helps. I use the user session chart, and noticed there are 2 ways in getting the session data for “any event”: in the event segment module, filter by event properties (brand=AA and country=ph), time range: last 4 days in the user segment module, use “Any event” filter by filter by event properties (brand=AA and country=ph), time range: last 4 daysHowever, the data discrepancy is 4-6%. May I know:What are the different in methodology for these 2 ways which cause data differences? Which is the correct way to get “accurate session”data?Thanks

Saved Segment Not Working

I'm running into a problem with a Saved Segment that is not working as expected.  I have a list of internal users that I actively maintain to ensure charts show user behavior (not internal usage). My Weekly Active Users chart has the “exclude” segment applied, but the chart data contains excluded users.

Cohort with distinct value of properties

I work for an app where users can log their meals.We log these under the same event (logged food) and then we have a property (category) that defines the different meals (i.e. breakfast, lunch, dinner, snack).I’d like to create a cohort to include our power users, i.e. users who log at least 3 different meals every day. Any idea of how I could set this cohort up? Good to know: If a user logs two different items (i.e. apple and coffee) for breakfast, this will result in 2 events being fired. This is why I cannot use the “count” in the cohort creation. My attempts using the distinct value of property option. I am stuck at the time definition as I’d like to add each day or at least 5 times a week and not during the last 30 days.Any workaround? Thanks in advance

[retention] cohort retention chart and retention graph looks very different

Hi thanks always:) I wanted to ask you about the retention chart,mainly about the differences in datadifference btw the retention graph & cohort raw data within the amplitude difference btw the amplitude retention graph & app store connectI made retention analysis chart as belowhttps://analytics.amplitude.com/Dreamfora0205/chart/new/jl350oa(any event to any event, all users, strict calendar dates, N-Day retention)It says 23.2% of users are returned on day1 However, when I downloaded the raw by eport csv,day by day it seems like the retention is higher than 23%. For instance on Oct19,Day0 user were 619, Day1 user were 180 → 29%so I added up all the users for Day0 from sep22nd to Oct 21st → 18215 users                       all the users for Day1 from Sep22nd to Oct 21st → 2754 usersthen the average day1 retention should be 2754/18215 = 26%but, in the graph it says 23.2%I guess it can have some differences because there’re some users might overlap. Also, this retention is very di

How Retention is Calculated in Retention Graphs

I’m trying to understand the Weekly retention of people in a certain cohort. However, I’m getting these numbers that raise over the given weeks. I know one of them is due to lack of data in those time periods, but most of them have been implemented for quite a while now, so this increase doesn’t seem expected. I am suspecting it has to do with the way the Cohort is setup. These are If User performs X more than 1 time within 30 days kind of cohorts. This led me to wonder, how do Cohorts of this nature work with a chart window that is bigger than the defining cohort.Example: Cohort where user performs event X at least once in 30 days. But I’m charting weekly retention over 12 weeks. Does the retention track what the dynamic cohort population was from week 1, and re-calculate it for each week? Or does it take one single measurement of what the cohort users are, and measure retention based off of the very first week’s users?Hope this question makes sense. Thanks in advance.-Justin

Uniques for multiple events

I want to measure the number of unique users per month who performed EITHER of several events. Do I just use UNIQUES(A)+UNIQUES(B)+UNIQUES(C)or would that still hold duplicate users (counts per event and just adds, or deduplicate as well)?

Is it possible to calculate how long certain things take?

Hey, we’re building an app to approve invoices. So each invoice is going through somewhat a funnel. From requesting approval, through multiple approval steps all the way to export. We have time stamps for each event (request_approval, approve, export etc.).Is it possible with Amplitude to calculate the cycle time of a document?And then also determine why certain documents take longer than others?

Most Popular Usage Times

Reporting users meeting cohort definition for the first time within a day/week/month

I have a working definition of Activated users and have several charts showing our DAU/WAU/MAU or the CUMSUM of this cohort of users. I’d like to build a chart that specifically shows new activated users. I can do this manually by clicking on the cumsum(activated_users) for week A and create a cohort of weekA_ActivateUsers, then repeat for Week B, then create a new chart with a segment where the users are in A but not in B.But that is tedious and we want to set up a sync of only newly activated users to send an email out to. A sync won’t be reliable if I have to do this manually. Does anyone have an automated way to solve this?

Grouping funnel by event properties

I have funnel that is based on users starting a piece of content (Event A) and users finishing a piece of content (Event B).I’d like to breakdown the funnel by an event property (content topic) so that I can compare the conversion rate of users when they engage with Topic Y vs. Topic Z but it doesn’t seem like I’m able to do this?
