Install Amplitude

You don't need tracking code to start. The script snippet and AI prompt install methods turn on Autocapture for you. To name a captured click as an event, use visual labeling, no code required. Add custom events only for actions Autocapture can't see, such as server-confirmed purchases.

Then start with your role

Your first three tasks after data arrives.

Set up the foundation

Create the account, project, and tracking plan Amplitude needs to answer product questions from clean data.

• Create an account to start your Amplitude workspace.
• Create a project for the product or environment you want to analyze.
• Plan your implementation to connect business questions to the events you track.
• Choose client-side or server-side tracking based on where events occur and which data your implementation needs.
• Identify users so Amplitude connects activity across sessions and devices. Set a user ID at sign-up or login, and reset it at logout.
• Prepare for production by deciding on project structure, consent, and an ad-blocker proxy.

Build your first workflow

After data flows into Amplitude, use charts and shared spaces to turn activity into decisions.

• Select events that represent meaningful user actions.
• Create a chart to answer your first product question.
• Start from a template to use prebuilt analysis patterns.
• Share work in spaces so teammates can find related charts, dashboards, and notebooks.
• Query your data from an AI client such as Claude or Cursor with the Amplitude MCP server. In Claude Code, the Amplitude plugin adds slash commands for charts, dashboards, and instrumentation work.
