Allow users to customize the API endpoint for the Amplitude Event Explorer Chrome Extension

I’m currently proxying all requests to Amplitude via an API gateway. This prevents me from using the Amplitude Event Explorer.

To work around this problem, I’m copying the extension, inserting my custom end point into the extension source code, and then manually loading the extension so it detects my events. This is a chore. If I wanted to share this with my co-workers, I’d have to publish my own copy of the extension which might not line up with the terms of use.

If the extension were open source, I might be tempted to fix this myself. :-)

Thanks for this idea Krishna Blazzy Rajendragon 😀 I’ve sent it to the product team for review!

Same trouble! In web data from 10 to 20% of data is hidden under the Ad Block and so on. So proxy is must. But event explorer not working with proxy. Upvote!

sam pennington sorry about the delay! I pinged someone from our technical support team to jump in here.

sam pennington looks like the support team reached out a few days ago. Posting this answer here so it helps other members with the same question (although probably not the answer you were hoping for):

There’s no option at this point in time, unfortunately.
We made a Feature Feedback ticket to track this feature request, but the caveat to this is that it is unlikely to happen soon, unfortunately, because there is no active development happening on Event Explorer at this point in time.

We do, however, take customer feedback seriously. We encourage you to submit a feature request via the Amplitude widget at the bottom right corner on the UI > Give Feedback (please see attached screenshot).

Please share as much information as possible about your use case and how you visualize the feature. Links are more than welcome! A detailed description would help our Product team understand the importance of the request better.

Linking AI Feedback to Specific Surveys in Amplitude
It would be really helpful if Amplitude showed which survey a piece of feedback belongs to. Right now, it’s hard to tell where comments originate when multiple surveys are active. As a bonus, it would also be great if the feedback text matched the UI language (currently, mine shows in German).
playback video in 9:16 in guides on phones
It would be great to have the option of playing back video (and having the video preview) in a 9:16 (vertical) orientation so that an end user of a video in a guide didn't have to full-screen the video in order to have it play in the correct orientation. It would also be great to have support for Wistia as more and more…
Grouping reordering
Hi, I’d like to request a feature: it would be really helpful to have the ability to shuffle or reorder properties within an event, especially when grouping. Right now, adjusting the order of grouped outputs is quite cumbersome.
Fix the search when filtering
When changing a property value, because we often have complex and long values, we paste the exact value in the search bar. However the matching value will appear at the very top but all other values will remain, which makes the search complex and we lose a few seconds each time Here is a loom to show my point Thanks !!
