Amplitude, a comprehensive product analytics platform, is seamlessly integrated with Edgee, allowing you to leverage its robust analytics capabilities directly from the edge. This component bypasses the need for embedding Amplitude’s SDK directly into your site, offering significant improvements in privacy and website performance.

​
Event Mapping

Here’s how Edgee events map to Amplitude events:

Edgee eventAmplitude Event
Page[Amplitude] Page Viewed (and session_start/session_end if needed)
TrackName of the event
Useridentify

When you make a user call, Edgee will send an identify event to Amplitude. Additionally, the user’s data (user_id, anonymous_id, and properties) are stored on the device, enabling proper attribution for subsequent page views and events.

​
Getting Started

To integrate Amplitude into your Edgee project:

  1. Open the Edgee console and navigate to your project’s Components.
  2. Select “Add a component” and choose edgee/amplitude from the list of available components.
  3. Enter your Amplitude API Key and click Save.
    (Your API Key can be found in the Amplitude Dashboard under Settings > Organization Settings > Project Settings > General > API Keys)
  4. Choose how Amplitude native cookies are handled. Turn them off completely, enable them always, or only enable them when user consent is granted.
  5. Once the component has been configured, you are ready to send analysis events to Amplitude.

​
Component Name

When configuring the component in your Edgee Data Layer or within SDK calls, use edgee/amplitude as the component name:

{
  "components": {
    "edgee/amplitude": true
  }
}
