We've made it easy to use Amplitude with Highlight. When you initialize Highlight, you can set your Amplitude API Key.

H.init('<YOUR_PROJECT_ID>', {
  integrations: {
    amplitude: {
      apiKey: '<AMPLITUDE_API_KEY>',
    },
  },
})

API

logEvent()

Calling H.track() will forward the data to Amplitude's logEvent().

H.track('signup_button_clicked', {
  firstTime: true,
  impressions: 10,
})

// The Highlight track call is equivalent to this logEvent call
amplitudeClient.logEvent('signup_button_clicked', {
  firstTime: true,
  impressions: 10,
  // This property is added by Highlight. This shows you the session where this event happened.
  highlightSessionURL: 'https://app.highlight.io/sessions/123',
})

setUserId() and identify()

Calling H.identify() will forward the data to Amplitude's setUserId() and identify().

H.identify('eliza@corp.com', {
  planType: 'premium',
  verified: false,
})

// The Highlight identify call is equivalent to setUserId and identify.
amplitudeClient.setUserId('eliza@corp.com')
amplitudeClient.identify(new amplitude.Identify().set('planType', 'premium').set('verified', false))

If you want to disable this behavior, you can set enabled: false for the integration:

H.init('<YOUR_PROJECT_ID>', {
  integrations: {
    amplitude: {
      enabled: false,
    },
  },
})
