Create custom event grayed out because "pending changes", but I've never changed anything

I just opened Amplitude Data for the first time, and the “Create Custom Event” link is grayed out. When I hover over it, the tooltip says “Please publish pending changes before creating a custom event”. But I’ve not made any changes. I’ve never used Amplitude Data before, so I’m not sure how I could have any pending changes.Could this be complaining about pending changes from some other user? If so, how can I figure out which user made those changes so I can hassle them to save their changes?

My Users are From Palo Alto although I just gave my built to few people in Pakistan

We released the built last month and most of the users are from Pakistan and no one in the can access the app since it’s just released for Pakistan. Yet, while I extracted the data from Amplitude it was pointing towards the US and especially towards Palo Alto and San Francisco, Oakland is their any specific reason

Get a list of user_ids from a Cohort ID via API.

Let’s say I have a Cohord ID = ‘rrsn6f2’, Instead of exporting the CSV file manually and then remove all the unused columns and keep only 1 column, the ‘user_id’ column which is a custom user property to include our own system’s user_id, I mean to do that job automatically by using Amp API. Is it feasible? Thank you.

What is the best way to test if an event is being emitted to Amplitude?

I’m currently implementing Amplitude into my project using the Ampli CLI and have gotten to a point where everything should be set up and ready to emit metrics. However, when I called one of the methods to emit a metric I don’t see any data on the Amplitude Data site for my project. For example, if I have a metric called “Page Viewed” and in my code I run the method ampli.pageViewed(params), after running that method I check on the Amplitude Data website and see that nothing has changed. In addition, when I try to log the event I get the following CORS message if that relates to this problem:Cross-Origin Request Blocked: The Same Origin Policy disallows reading the remote resource at https://api.amplitude.com/. (Reason: CORS request did not succeed). Status code: (null). Any help would be appreciated!

Does the Amplitude ampli cli track() and specific event based methods return anything?

I don’t see in the ampli docs if methods such as ampli.track() return a status for success or not and was wondering if it does. Thanks!

A bug in in Data(Beta) which prevents creating Custom Events

Hi folks,It appears there’s a bug in Data (Beta) that prevents me (an Admin) from creating “Custom Events”.  Screen shot below. Can this bug be urgently rectified?I can understand transitioning the Govern screen to the Data product, but if there are some material bugs, a forced transition may be a bit premature.

Using the new "Data" product in Amplitude, how do you make an event "Inactive" after it's been deleted

I’ve just been forced into using Amplitude Data, as all the Govern settings have moved there.In the process, I deleted some events which shouldn’t have been flowing.Unfortunately. one of those events was marked as “Active” so showed up in all my “Any Active Events” charts.  When I go back into “Data” to find it and mark it as “Inactive”, it’s not coming up in the list.  I’ve also tried Creating the event again, but to no avail.How can I make the event as Inactive?

Events are not loaded on the new Data page

Hi,I cannot seem to be able to see any events on the new Data page. The web console throws an error when loading, which I’m assuming is probably related.Any idea what’s going on?Thanks

Return average session length by user through the API?

Hey, I am trying to find the average session length by user. I know this is possible on a chart but using the endpoint: GET https://amplitude.com/api/3/chart/CHART_ID_HERE/queryOnly returns 1000 user ids. Another way would be to use the user activity endpoint but this would be a long process. I essentially want the following endpoint:GET https://amplitude.com/api/2/sessions/peruserBut with the ability to group by cohort, property or those who have performed a particular event.

Data (Beta) - A new home for Amplitude’s data management features 

Amplitude’s data management features are going through some exciting changes! We’re consolidating Iteratively’s data planning capabilities with Amplitude event and property management features into one central hub, with a brand new user interface.  What does this mean for you? All of the data management that you did in Govern—things like blocking and deleting an event/property, changing the visibility status or activity status for an event/property, or creating custom events—will now be done in the new data management hub Data (Beta.) You’ll also be able to set up a workspace for your project and use the Tracking Plan feature to plan changes to your schema, set taxonomy rules, solicit feedback and reviews from your team. Here, you’ll also be able to view your event metadata and be alerted of schema violations. Example of adding events to your tracking plan: To learn more, check out the following docs:  Amplitude Academy Course - Data(Beta) Iteratively Blog - How to make event trackin

amplitude-js changing request-header doesn't work

I have a simple react application using amplitude-js to send payloads to our API. Our API controller accepts and parses json message (application/json;charset=utf-8) but amplitude-js sends data in format data.I tried below code in my react application where I initiate amplitude intance but it doesn't work, it still sends the data in application/x-www-form-urlencoded format which is default:const amplitudeInstance = amplitude.getInstance("test").init("21e0fe6c98573ae71d209cb8ec4e85eb", null, { // optional configuration options saveEvents: false, forceHttps:false, headers: { 'Content-Type': 'application/json;charset=utf-8'}, apiEndpoint:'localhost:8080/events/publish', logEvent:'test data'})So my question is why can't I change amplitude-js's content-type as they mention in docs:https://developers.amplitude.com/docs/javascriptdeoland (Configuring HTTP Headers)Thanks

Introducing Ampli SDK

The Ampli CLI, Ampli SDK, and Amplitude SDK work together to bring a tracking library into your project.Developers use a Tracking Plan in the form of a type-safe autogenerated code.Iteratively can generate a tracking library for all popular platforms and programming languages. The autogenerated library, the Ampli SDK, is a lightweight wrapper over the Amplitude SDK that provides type-safety, supports linting, and enables features like input validation. The code replicates the spec in the Tracking Plan and enforces its rules and requirements. :::noteVisit the ampli-examples GitHub repo for example applications that use the Ampli SDK.::: Ampli CLI The Ampli CLI is how you download the Ampli SDK for your current tracking plan ampli pull.Verify implementation status of event tracking in your project by using ampli status. Ampli SDK The Ampli SDK is a dynamic, code-generated SDK. It contains strong types for the events in your tracking plan, and provides autocomplete and static type checkin

Generate SDK

We have a gatsby website that I am trying to track events. We have defined a tracking plan using Iteratively. So I believe the steps are next to generate the sdk using that tracking plan. I have followed the steps in the documentation - https://developers.data.amplitude.com/browser. This generates a src/itly/index.js file which has methods for my track events. It also export itlySdk.However I am unable to get this file properly included and working in our gatsby website. I have tried making a plugin but cannot get it to work.My first question is the 2 different types of Browser - Javascript sources. I cannot find these mentioned anywhere in the docs. So should I be using Browser - Javascript or Browser - Javascript (Itly).Secondly the file generate when using Browser - Javascript (Itly) exports itlySdk. Whereas the documentation steps talk about importing itly. https://developers.data.amplitude.com/browser#import-into-your-app. I don’t have itly defined in the generated javascript.Thir

Ingesting Events via HTTP API V2

The HTTP API v2 is a great tool to ingest data into Amplitude via server-side. You can use Shell, HTTP, JavaScript, NodeJS, Ruby, Python, Java, and Go to hit the HTTP API v2 endpoint(https://api2.amplitude.com/2/httpapi).  I will demonstrate how to ingest data from the HTTP API v2 endpoint using a curl command using Terminal on a Mac laptop. The HTTP API v2 endpoint expects the event data to be formatted in JSON. Here is an example call:  curl -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"api_key": "INSERT_API_KEY","events":[{"device_id":"5f9fbb3b-8b65-5a35-8ec1-699f5cfb2998", "event_type":"test_event", "event_properties": {"button_clicked_name": "Subscribe"},"user_properties": {"is_subscribed": true},"ip":"127.0.0.1"}]}' https://api2.amplitude.com/2/httpapi  The breakdown of the call above: You will need the API Key of your Amplitude project (only members with manager and admin permissions can see this information) The Device ID or User ID of the unique user. (In the call we are u
