How to combine events into a single custom event

Hello!I am trying to study user behaviour after a few key events are performed, which we use to determine whether a user is activated or not. For example:User1 has performed event A + Event B + Event C, User 1 = ActivatedHowever, when creating a custom event I see that the custom event will be triggered if any of the events are performed, which doesn’t really help my mechanic at all. Is there a better way to conduct this analysis or a workaround so that I may have events work with AND instead of OR? Thank you beforehand for your help!

Events by User "Age" chart

I’m trying to figure out how long users use our app before they purchase our hardware device. We have an event for when they visit our shop and I’d like to see unique occurrences of this event by the age of the user at the time they performed it. Is that possible?

Export delayed events to Redshift

Hello,we have just start with data exports and we have a concern with delayed events.The order_key in the table is event_time, as I can read in the docs this is the difference between server_received_time and client_upload_time, but I cannot understand how it solves the case when the export needs to loads in Redshift delayed data, when the new data has been loaded.We are worried about using event_time could end on a loss of data in Redshift in case of a conflict between new event just received and old event that needs to be delivered, that Redshift will reject due to the order_key. A practical example could help us in understand the process.We would like to have an upload_timestamp as order_key in a new column with a timestamp filled when the event is loaded in Redshift instead of Amplitude. We tried to add it to the table but the export failed because of the table structure. But in case we can be sure that event_time will solves it, this column could be not necessary.We have been thi

Excluding from funnel

Hi all! I understand Amplitude funnel’s provide an “exclude” feature; you can exclude a user if they perform a certain event between steps of the funnel.Is there anyway to exclude users who performed a certain event *not* between steps of the funnel? I suspect the answer is “No” (it’s not obviously available on the funnel page), but figured I would check. Assuming the answer is “No”: does anyone have an approach for performing analyses like this? One thought was to make sure user properties are set for the kinds of things you want to exclude on, but using events is more convenient since we already have events being sent.

Creating and updating a user property

Hi everyone, I have 2 questionsQ1 registering user prop.according to the docs custom user props can be created in 2 different ways:Manually in the UI Calling the analytics.identify() with the user propCan a user prop be registered using as a payload of an event or we have to do 1 or 2 to register itQ2 Updating the user prop Once I register a user prop, for example, email what are the ways of updating it client side? I know we can call analytics.identify() again with the new value, and I’m almost sure we can do that by firing any event with property email being set to a new value and this will change the user.email attribute. Is that right?Q3 CollisionWhat happens if we have a user.email property (user property called email) that gets populated using identify() either on signup or when a user decides to change their email.Now imagine someone instruments and event User Invited {email: “xxxx”} What would happen in the case of collision where we have an event with the prop email and a user

Sharing Couple SDK Updates!

As we keep building the next generation of Amplitude SDKs, we have more platforms supported now. Node & React Native SDKs (Beta) Both SDKs leverage the new TypeScript SDK foundation which is more robust and has cleaner interfaces. Both have Code generation support. Golang SDK (Alpha) We received many requests for adding the Go support, so a new server side SDK has been added to the family! We’re working on the code generation support for it, and will announce it soon. Feel free to give them a try and we would like to hear from you too! - Many loves from Amplitude

Funnel Analysis: User behavior filters

When doing funnel analysis, we often find ourselves wanting to look at segments of users that have never completed a step in the funnel previously or consequently, users that have already completed a step in the funnel previously. I know amplitude has a “new” user filter, but is there a way to create a similar filter to look at subsets of users who have performed or not performed events prior?

Issue while configuring the default user in Amplitude analytics

Hello Everyone 🖐🏼.My name is Yvan, first time using Amplitude. I have a small issue while using the Amplitude SDK (Expo React Native). In fact, I've developed an app whereby Drivers can register orders from customers manually (By entering what they ordered, from which restaurant, ...), and can "simulate" their orders being processed until delivery.However, when using the SDK, I saw there that I can only track users as Drivers when they're trying to register orders (Since they're the ones who open the app). But is it possible instead to configure and send user records as customers to Amplitude ? So that instead of saying that: "A driver has registered an order from customer A", I can say "Customer A has placed this order", and then maybe, instead of saying: “The driver is trying to process orders from customer A, B and C”, we can instead say: “Customer A, B and C has their individual order being processed at some step” ? Thank you so much in advance 🙏🏼

Activation Funnel: Tracking Event count

We’re looking to build an activation funnel, with our core activation metric being if a user viewed a specific type of content 5+ times within the first week.The funnel we have is quite simple for now - we’re looking at the Registration event, then 2nd event is Pageview → PageType*5This is where I then get stuck - I can’t seem to add a metric to say “viewed 5 pages of this page type”. Do I need to set this up somewhere else? Almost like a goal in Google Analytics and track that funnel?

400 Bad Request Error on Segmentation

Hello, I am trying to retrieve data using the segmentation endpoint, but I keep getting a 400 bad request error. We have an event named PUSH_NOTIFICATION/OPEN on our Amplitude, but it does not seem to work. I have also tried with the ce: prefix on the event type, but that also returns a 400 error. Below is the curl request, with authorization headers removed of course.curl --location -g --request GET 'https://amplitude.com/api/2/events/segmentation?e={"event_type":"PUSH_NOTIFICATION%2FOPEN"}&start=20220904&end=20220907&n=any' Thanks!

What's your favourite tracking event from your product?

I love to track interesting things beyond pageviews, screens, clicks and taps - very specific and detailed interactions that are revealing about how a user is using a product. Here are 3 of my favourite things I’ve tracking and why:Piano Key Played: in my piano tuition app, each time they played a key (or several) on their real piano I would track it and whether or not it was correct. Tracking audio events! App Screen Screenshotted: some years ago, to understand the screens in an app that a user was most keen to save or share. Not sure this is in line with data privacy anymore! Relationship Ended: bit sad maybe, but for a relationship app I work on we track when users report that their relationships end. Interesting to see (and try to predict) how long they will last!What’s your favourite from your product and why?

Where are your events coming from?

I’m curious to hear, besides your core product, which data integrations have you made with Amplitude i.e. what is the source of your events? My list is below (% of my clients doing each in brackets)Core Product: Front-end (100%) Core Product: Back-end (36%) Push Notifications Tool (29%) Mobile Marketing Platform (21%) Email Tool (14%)FYI - my clients are typically seed/series-A stage, so often have integrations planned but not yet done!

Measuring Non Paying MAU

Hey all, We have a use case where we now have people using our application which aren’t paid users. They are invited by users to complete tasks but not a part of our paid user base.Is there a best practice way to deal with this pattern? I would expect we need to be setting a parameter for everyone and specify their user type but wonder if that is too clumsy.Thanks

Find events of users who haven't performed a certain event.

Hello all, I am trying to understand some details about our MAU’s. I think there could be something wrong with our data but want to validate it by seeing what people are doing if they aren’t engaging with our most common event. In my mind it works like this. Select Top Global EventsWhere user has not performed “Event X"Could anyone help me figure out how we do this in Amplitude? Thanks

Best way to store onboarding survey results

I’m planning on adding a short onboarding survey to our app, with questions like “where did you hear from us”. As users are only asked these questions once, conceptually they would make sense as user properties. However, I’m a little worried of creating lots of user properties and spamming our data schema that way. Is there a way to group user properties? Or how else would you recommend storing these results?
