Amplitude integration for Founder OS: what it reads and how to connect
Home Integrations Amplitude integration
Amplitude integration
The Amplitude connector reads two totals a day from your project: how many people were active and how many were new, for the last seven days. Nothing about any individual user is read.
Connected tools are part of Founder OS, which is on Pro Plus. Idea validation is on every plan, including Free. See every tool Founder OS reads.
What Founder OS reads from Amplitude
- Daily active users, for each of the last 7 days
- Daily new users, for each of the last 7 days
- The day each total belongs to
What it leaves alone:
- Individual users, their ids and their properties
- Events, funnels, cohorts and charts
How much each sync reads
- A seven day window: today and the six days before it, read again on each sync
A sync runs when you connect, once a day after that, and whenever you press Sync.
Where the records are used
- Kept as dated figures beside your other company records
How to connect Amplitude
Connect with a key you create:
- In Amplitude, open Organization settings, then Projects, then your project.
- Copy the API Key and the Secret Key.
- If your data is in the EU data center, enter eu as the region.
Amplitude documents this kind of key in its own guide, and you connect your account under Amplitude’s terms.
Access and security
- Your project’s API Key and Secret Key. Amplitude cannot limit them to read access, so the safeguard is ours: every request is checked on our server and anything that is not a read is refused before it leaves. Enter eu as the region if your data is in Amplitude’s EU data center.
Every request to a connected tool is checked on our server, and anything that is not a read is refused before it leaves. It cannot move money, send a message or change a record. Keys and tokens are encrypted with AES 256 in GCM mode before they are stored, are never shown again, and are kept out of our logs. Disconnecting deletes the key and every record imported from the tool, in one step. For a tool you approved, we also ask the tool to end our access. The security page sets out the rest.
Questions
- Does Founder OS see who my users are through Amplitude?
- No. Only two daily totals are requested: active users and new users. No user ids, properties or events are read.
- Is Amplitude’s EU data center supported?
- Yes. Enter eu as the region when you connect, and the EU address is used.
