I already read your doc and it said that if I update user property after events. The events won’t have the user property. But this mechanism doesn’t fit my scenario. In my scenario, I know my users’ industry after they use it for a few days. When I know their industry, I want to update their property and try to compare the data group by their industry. However, the industry isn’t assigned to all the events of the users which makes the comparison impossible to complete.

Hi @haoyuan.

Sounds like your query is the same as this one, which confirms it’s not possible to update historic values of user properties (Amplitude data is immutable)…
