Amplitude Events Not Showing

Ongoing Web, iOS, Android, server Updated November 13, 2026Based on 3 user reportsHow we research

Quick answer

Events missing from charts are usually hidden/blocked in Amplitude Data, a drop filter, a tracking plan that rejects unplanned events, an exceeded instrumentation limit, or SDK batching delay.

Most likely fix: Check the event stream and filters

How to fix it

Try these in order — the most common fix is first.

  1. 1. Check the event stream and filters

    1. Open the event stream/User Lookup and confirm the event arrives
    2. If it is in the stream but not in charts, look for a drop filter or an event hidden in Amplitude Data
    3. Check whether the event is hidden from drop-downs, Pathfinder or Personas
    Did this fix it?

  2. 2. Check the tracking plan and limits

    1. In Amplitude Data confirm unplanned events and properties are allowed
    2. Delete unneeded event types if over the limit (hidden and blocked events still count)
    3. Allow about 24 hours for new items to appear once under the limit

  3. 3. Verify the SDK setup

    1. Confirm the API key in init() and use the EU key if EU residency is enabled
    2. Call flush() to send queued events immediately
    3. Check for a 400 error from an invalid deviceId or userId

Symptoms

Events sent from your app do not appear in charts or the event stream, or appear for some users only.

Why it happens

  • Event hidden, blocked or deleted in Amplitude Data
  • Tracking plan does not accept unplanned events or properties
  • Project is over its instrumentation limit
  • Wrong API key or EU data residency mismatch
  • SDK queue has not flushed yet
