Let AI Assistant build your complex derived properties for you

 AI Assistant Internal use case Underlying data Descriptive prompt Derived property formula Formula validation Have you ever needed assistance building a complex derived property?I know I have. We all have unique property data in our organizations, so it’s tricky to document every possible use case in our derived property documentation.  But don’t fret - Amplitude’s got you covered. Just when you think you’ve hit a complex limitation in setting up a derived property... try using our AI Assistant. AI AssistantWhen you expand the Data modal to create a new derived property, you’ll notice a grayed-out CTA labeled ✨ Suggest. The more descriptive you type a prompt in the description field, the more accurate this Suggest feature will yield a correct derived property formula.  New AI Assistant Suggest CTA is available when you type out a descriptive prompt in the Derived Property Description Note: Customers who have purchased the Govern Add-on have access to derived properties.  Internal use

Can I collect information from mobile devices if I end up customizing the Device ID?

https://help.amplitude.com/hc/en-us/articles/115003135607-Track-unique-usershttps://www.docs.developers.amplitude.com/data/sdks/flutter/#set-custom-device-id Hi, I have a question.I understand that amplitude creates a unique user profile based on three main ID values. I was wondering about the possible issues with customizing the Device ID among these.If we customize the Device ID (because we have an NFC ticket that only we utilize), will we not be able to see the information of the mobile device (because it will not meet the device criteria)?Or, if we customize it, will we still be collecting and storing each device separately? Just curious.* This article has been translated using the translator from DeepL.

Setting page view tracking in HTTP request

Hello Amplitude team I’m currently using React/Nextjs for the company’s app and we recently setup Amplitude in our codebase using the HTTP API method. The tracking of the events on the page button seems to be working as I could see the data reflected in our Amplitude account. However, when I inspect the event, the event_properties declared here which is url shows no value. This property is added for the purpose of tracking this particular url/page as I’m unsure how to include the pageView default setting. There are examples for the SDK method but not for the HTTP API. Appreciate if you could provide some insight on this. Currently, this is how we set up the api call; try { const _res = await axios.post( 'https://api2.amplitude.com/2/httpapi', { api_key: project_key, events: [ { device_id: deviceId, event_type: 'signup_button', event_property: { url: router.asPath } } ] },

Miro integration not working with eu datacenter

Hi allI would like the Miro integration with the eu data residency analytics.eu.amplitude.com. When I push the Authenticate button in Miro, the redirect will fail. I guess the reason is because it will redirect to https://notify.amplitude.com/integrations and not https://notify.eu.amplitude.com/integrations.Any chance how I can fix this problem with a workaround?Thanks,Sandro

Can you update historical events with a new user property

Hi there,We added a new user property and I was hoping that this would propagate to historical events.However, this has not occurred and this user property is still showing as `(none)` for events created before this user property was set.I was reading this somewhat related topic where @Yuanyuan Zhang notes:Once a user property is set, it will be applied to all events going forward until it gets updated. For example, you first have user property email = abc@gmail.com, all events will have this user property value. Then you send in another value today email = def@gmail.com, all events from that point onwards will have the user property value def@gmail.com. And:You can update the same user prop "email" by including "email" in the payload with the new value and specify that it will be overwritten for the user properties at the top and the new value will propagate to further events. Historical events will not get updated. Does this confirm that it is not possible to update the user properti

why is user_id as an event property needed when we have user properties?

I have currently started to deep dive into our company's Amplitude data and to understand the tool better I’ve read the official blogposts. Eg.: https://amplitude.com/blog/event-data-components#next-steps  In the content I’ve read so far “user_id” is included in the event property and I now wonder why that is needed when user_id is part of the user properties connected to the event? User_id in both places should in that case be redundant? Thanks in advance for your help. Best,Josefin

Segment, Amplitude and gclid

Hi everyone,  We have Amplitude set up on our site via Segment (in device mode, i.e. it uses Amplitude SDK). We have the Track GCLID option set as true I even see some events with gclid in the last 7 days:  But if I try to get the utm_campaign, I get zero results:  Is there any configuration I’m missing? I’m not being able to find info about how gclid and Amplitude work together. Any help is welcome :)

Track Use of Accessibility / Assistive Technology

Has anyone implemented a way to capture when assistive technologies / accessibility tools are active for a user? For example, a true/false or discrete value saved into a User Property? This would be to track if a user was utilizing a screen reader, speech navigation tool, voice over on a mobile device, zoom level change, etc.? In my case this is for a webpage application - so running in a browser - which I know limits what information is accessible.

A sharp jump in MTU in one day

We are on Scholarship Plan at 200k MTU.Last several months we had a sharp jump in MTU in one day. It looks like this (green line):When I asked support manager about the situation, she suggested us start by going through this article and look especially at any anonymous user jumps we might have.I asked my developer to check and he didn’t find any problems.Could you help me to investigate and fix the problem? It’s super important for me since I have already had 2 overruns of MTU because of this problem. Next time my account will be blocked.

Slack notifications upon an event

Hey there,Does the slack integrations allows me to be notified when a certain event occurs.What i mean here is the following: Imagine one of the events that I start sending to Amplitude is “New User Created”. I create an analysis chart for it, and that’s all good, but I would actually like to be notified every time this event occurs.Does the slack integration support this functionality (paid or free tear regardless)?Keep up the great work!

BQ Event Ingestion Count does not match Segmentation Charts

Hi all,I set up a BigQuery connection to ingest custom event data into our Amplitude project. I can see the ingestion is running correctly, and the event counts on the BQ Connection show the expected number of events (19k for 8/29/2023):  However, when building a segmentation chart for the same event, the count for event totals is much lower:  Is this a configuration issue somewhere? I would expect the event totals in my segmentation chart to match the number of ingested events by day in the BQ connection screen. TIA for any assists!

Data discrepancy between our DB and Amplitude

Hello!I’m looking to brainstorm solutions for a data discrepancy issue I have between my website’s production database and Amplitude. The discrepancy is with an event we call “Article View”. Our DB tracks an article view on the backend, and originally I setup Amplitude tracking on the frontend. The difference was quite surprising (several thousand view difference), so I decided to track this event on the server and in the same block of code where we track article views for our database. This has produced much better results, but there is still a difference in event volumes (only ~200 event total difference now). Has anyone else had a similar issue and found a fix? Is this type of problem to be expected? Would really appreciate any help, thanks!

See the cumulative % of my MAU that performed an activity over time

 I’m using the segmentation chart and the % Active to see how frequently MAU are interacting with a new feature. I want to see this on a cumulative basis though, more like, what % of MAU have completed this event through X date. Not sure how to do this. If I change the chart type from Stacked area to Bar chart, I think that shows the total cumulative % that have completed it (it’s just a single bar) but I would like to see how that changes over time.

Unable to sort based on custom event attributes.

We are unable to apply filters to the custom event properties. Basically, we have an event named "checkout_init" with a custom event property called "checkout_type", which can take on values of 'old' or 'new'. Interestingly, I can observe the same event property seems to be fine in User Streams. And This issue only arises in the production environment, the same event with event properties functions correctly in the sandbox environment.

Seeding Amplitude with .csv data

Hi, is there a way to seed my Amplitude account only using csv data? Right now the setup wizard is trying to make me connect an API source, but I just want to import some event data from a csv file and then analyze it with Amplitude. I’m not even able to access the dashboard at all because the setup wizard wants an API connection. Help!Thanks!
