Missing Web Events due to Ad Blockers and How to Handle It

Hi there Amplitude Community!When using Amplitude Web SDKs, it is possible that some users’ events are not ingested into Amplitude due to ad blockers. Currently, we are not able to estimate the percentage of events that do not get ingested as we do not have the data to support it. While we do not offer official support for circumventing ad-blockers, our Engineering Team has provided a workaround - run a reverse proxy through your own domain. Please note that it is best that this process is done by an Engineer or a Developer as this is a technical workaround.Details on what a proxy service is and how to use it in this setting can be found here:https://www.docs.developers.amplitude.com/analytics/domain-proxy/Hope this helps! ----- please give this post a thumb-up if you find it helpful! This will help us know what content we should publish in the future :) -----Amplitude Team

Can I selectively delete or modify historical data on Amplitude?

Hi Amplitude Community, At the moment, it is not possible to selectively delete or modify historical events. Our current architecture is based on pre-aggregated sets by the hour, day, week and month for users and events. While this allows us to scale well, a limitation is that data is immutableThat being said, we have some options for specific use cases:You can use the Export API to pull all the data from their project, sanitize the data (remove properties), and then perform a Self Backfill and use Batch API to push events into a new Amplitude project. Please note that backfilling data will increase the event volume in your org, which may incur costs. Deleting the old project will not reduce the volume. Do you want just to drop certain data? Amplitude Data's drop filters feature allows you to remove specific event data from your charts at query time. These events are not deleted, and they can be restored to your charts simply by editing or deleting the drop filter. You can read more ab

CSV Export Contains Quotation Marks or Leading Spaces - WHY?

Hi Amplitude Community!We would like to provide context about the quotation marks or leading space in CSV exports. Our engineering team modified exported CSVs to include additional quotation and tab characters in front of all values as a preventative measure for a security risk known with CSV downloads (details here). Attackers can potentially use a formula to inject false data or leak data. And in order to prevent formula triggering cells from running, our engineering team revamped our CSV exports by prefixing quotation and tab characters in front of all values.With that being said, while that security issue remains, we received feedback from customers who said that they were willing to take that risk. Therefore, we implemented a way to export CSVs from Amplitude without any characters in front for those users. If you are willing to take that risk as well, you can enable the feature to remove the spaces in your CSV in your Org Settings section on the Profile page. You can scroll down

Currency Conversion at Amplitude

Hi Amplitude Community, Amplitude currently does not support currency conversion. If you receive revenue in different currencies, then we recommend normalizing to a single currency before you send us revenue data. Amplitude logs the exact revenue value sent to us and treats it as a numerical value (not a currency value). By default, the currency sign we display in the dashboard is the dollar sign, "$".You can change this display under Organizational settings > Projects > Currency Display. Please check this doc for more information: https://help.amplitude.com/hc/en-us/articles/15581410157339. NOTE: Changing the currency display does not modify nor convert the underlying data. ----- please give this post a thumb-up if you find it helpful! This will help us know what content we should publish in the future :) -----Amplitude Team

Instrumenting the Duration Event Property

Media customers that are interested in tracking the amount of time users spend on their products would be interested in instrumenting a property that measures the duration between two events. With this property, users can then measure various items such as Average Property Value, Median Property Value, or use the duration values in complex formulas in our Event Segmentation: Formulas chart. To track duration, you would need to capture the timestamp of a Start Event and timestamp of an End Event, calculate the difference between the two timestamps, and then pass in the duration as an event property for the End Event. In our demo account this End Event is called Played Song, and here is an example chart: https://analytics.amplitude.com/demo/chart/new/snewb09 As an example for Page View events, let's say you have a Start Event = 'Viewed Home Page' and an End Event = 'Clicked Signup'. When the user fires the 'Viewed Home Page' event, you can create a variable in your code called first_ti

The best way to get user ID and User adress e-mail

Hi, I have just install Amplitude through Google Tag Manager using the JS Browser SDK. I am not a developper (but a marketing guy)and I try to figure out a simple way to collect the user e-mail adress into Amplitude. Our application is only for connected users. So everyone has to sign in. I tried to look at the documenttation and I saw that :amplitude.setUserId('user@amplitude.com'); 1) Is it that code I need to use ? What is the e-mail variable I need to use ? 2) If yes, can i add it to my existing code in Google tag manager ? 3) Is it possible to use the e-mail as a UserID and should I separate it ? UserID with a number and create a new property for e-mail ? Thank you for your answer

Compatabile App for Shopify Extensibility

Shopify confirmed that third-party browser-based tools, like Amplitude JS, will no longer be compatible with Shopify’s new checkout Extensibility. Shopify only exposes limited custom events in their new, more secure sandbox environment, and these tools will no longer have access to the window and document objects. Community posts here suggest that there used to be an app for Amplitude in the Shopify App Store; however, our team can’t see it in Shopify’s App Store. We’d like to know if Amplitude is working on making an Extensibility-compatible Shopify app or any other compatible tooling.

Managing User IDs Across Browsers and Clearing Cache in Amplitude

I empty the browser cache and log in again.This causes inconsistency in user tracking and affects analytics accuracy.Could anyone explain:Why this happens in Amplitude? Best practices to avoid multiple User IDs for the same user across different scenarios?Any help would be greatly appreciated!Thanks!
