The Settings page

  • Updated

This article will help you:

  • Manage organizational and project-level settings

You can access the Settings page by clicking the settings_icon.png icon. Any user within your organization can access this page, but settings can only be changed by organization admins and managers. Within the Settings page, you can navigate between organization-level settings, your own personal Amplitude settings, and more.

Organizational settings

The organizational settings area is where you'll find everything you need to manage settings at the organization and project level. The default view is the General page. This will display your organization's name, org ID, org URL, and plan type. 

If you're a Growth or Enterprise customer, you'll also see some additional information, including the contract start and end date, the event limit (event volume quota), events seen this month, and events seen last month. This will help you track your event volume usage from within Amplitude itself.

Only admins can see event quota alerts. They'll receive email alerts when event volume hits 80%, 90%, 100%, and 110% of the event quota.

Personal settings

The personal settings area is where you can manage your own profile, site settings, and notifications.

The Profile panel shows your organization, role, email, name, and password associated with your Amplitude account. Click pencil.png to change your display name or update your password.

The "Always Remove Leading Spaces from Export” option tells Amplitude to delete any empty spaces from the beginnings of cells in an export .CSV. With the default setting, these spaces are left in place, which can result in messy data, or more significant data errors. This setting works for positive values, but not for values that start with or are = , +, -, or @

If you do keep this option disabled, you should remove these spaces later in Excel or Google Sheets, using the Text to Columns feature.

Please see our Help Center article about how to manage your Slack integration in Amplitude for more details.

Notifications

In the Notifications area, you can to change your Slack and email notification settings for Amplitude's collaboration features. Here, you can enable or disable email notifications relating to you, your organization, or your spaces.
