Amplitude: track event

The Amplitude: track event Point template sends one event to an Amplitude project through the HTTP API V2, with the properties you list.

Pushwoosh sets Amplitude’s insert_id for you from the traveler and this step, so the same traveler passing through this exact point twice — for example on a second lap of a looping journey — lands as one deduplicated event in Amplitude, not two.

Configure the point

Anchor link to
  1. Drag Amplitude: track event from the Integrations section onto the canvas.
  2. Double-click the point and enter a Step Name.
  3. In API key, enter the project API key from Amplitude: Settings > Projects > your project > General. It’s stored masked, like a webhook secret header — Pushwoosh never displays or returns it once saved, and it never appears in the point’s stored request or in the Calls log.
  4. In Amplitude endpoint, pick the region the Amplitude project was created in: api2.amplitude.com for a US project, api.eu.amplitude.com for an EU one. A key from one region is rejected by the other.
  5. In Event name, enter the event as it should appear in Amplitude, for example journey_welcome_push_sent. It takes the same macros as Event properties.
  6. In Event properties, add the property name mapped to the value to send — see key/value fields. A value that’s a single macro keeps its own type in Amplitude ({{tag:Age}} arrives as a number, {{tag:Trial Ends}} as a date); any other text is sent as a string.
  7. Click Save.

Response

After the step runs, the number of events Amplitude ingested is available in later steps as attribute amplitude_events_ingested — use it the same way you’d use a Webhook response attribute.

A failed request drops the traveler from the journey — see Errors and failed requests.
