Query a saved chart

Query a saved chart

Returns the computed results of a saved event segmentation, sessions, funnel or retention chart for a time range.

Note: Other chart types return 422 with unsupported_chart_type. Without a time range it uses the chart's saved range, or the last 30 days. On the CLI and the API the token needs the analytics:read scope.

Set up

Use the first option your agent supports.

MCP (official, remote)

Add this server to your agent's MCP settings, then sign in when asked.

{ "mcpServers": { "amplitude": { "url": "https://mcp.amplitude.com/mcp" } } }

Call the MCP tool get_amplitude_charts.

Server URL: https://mcp.amplitude.com/mcp

CLI (official)

Install the command and sign in with it, then confirm it runs.

npm install -g @amplitude/developer-cli
amp --version

Run amp charts query.

API (official)

• Base URL: https://developer-api.amplitude.com
• Endpoint: POST /v1/projects/{project_id}/charts/{chart_id}/query
• Auth: an OAuth access token, sent as Authorization: Bearer <token>
• Docs: https://amplitude.com/docs/apis/developer

Before anything else, confirm access with the cheapest read-only call, like a list or a search. Never send or change anything to test access.

Rules

• Ask the user before anything that sends messages, costs money, or changes data, and say how many records it touches. One approval covers a batch the user has seen.
• Never print API keys.
