How do I push an event to Amplitude?

Short answer: You can send event in Amplitude by hand from its own interface, but it won’t repeat itself. On TinyCommand, add the Amplitude Send Event action to a workflow, map its 5 inputs from any upstream app, and it runs automatically every time the trigger fires. No code, and a free tier to start.

The fields this action accepts.

Every field can be mapped from an upstream trigger, AI step, table row, or hard-coded literal.

Field	Type	Required	Description
Event Type event_type	string	Required	–
User ID user_id	string	Optional	–
Device ID device_id	string	Optional	–
Event Properties (JSON) event_properties	string	Optional	–
User Properties (JSON) user_properties	string	Optional	–

Sample request

{
  "event_type": "{{trigger.event_type}}",
  "user_id": "{{trigger.user_id}}",
  "device_id": "{{trigger.device_id}}",
  "event_properties": "{{trigger.event_properties}}",
  "user_properties": "{{trigger.user_properties}}"
}

Returns

{
  "code": 200,
  "events_ingested": 1,
  "payload_size_bytes": 50,
  "server_upload_time": 1620000000000
}

Use these fields in downstream nodes for routing, logging, or error handling.

FAQ

Questions about Send Event.

What does the Send Event action do in Amplitude?

Sends a behavioural event into Amplitude with user_id, event_type, properties, and timestamp. The base hook for server-side tracking — events that don't fire from the client SDK (webhook-triggered states, async backend events, scheduled jobs). For bulk historical loads, use the Import endpoint instead.

What inputs does Send Event require?

Required: Event Type. Every input accepts a static value or a variable from any upstream node in your workflow.

Can I use dynamic inputs from earlier workflow nodes?

Yes. Any field on this action can pull values from upstream nodes, whether that's a form response, a trigger payload, an AI output, or a lookup result.

What happens if Amplitude returns an error?

The workflow pauses on the failed node, the error message is captured in the run log, and you can retry the run with one click. Auto-retry policies are configurable per workflow with exponential backoff up to 5 attempts.

Does Send Event support batch operations?

Yes. Run Send Event inside a Loop node to process arrays. TinyCommand handles Amplitude's rate limits automatically so you don't have to throttle manually.

Export Events

Returns raw events for a specified time window — useful for daily warehouse loads, ad-hoc forensics, or one-off cohort analyses. Events become available 5-15 minutes after ingestion, so for real-time reaction workflows this is the wrong tool; for batch ETL into a warehouse, this is the right one.
