Lantern Event Streaming

Lantern is a customer success platform designed to predict when customers are ready to expand or in need of help and run workflows to engage them. Lantern helps B2B companies connect with the right customer at the right time and increase Net Dollar Retention.

Considerations¶

Keep these things in mind when sending events to Lantern.

• You must enable this integration in each Amplitude project you want to use it in.
• You must have a paid Lantern plan.
• Amplitude matches the user_id to the Lantern analytics_id to associate events.
• Relevant limits for Lantern events are:
  • Maximum event size of data: 64 bytes
  • Maximum size of event data: 4250K bytes (4.25MB)
• To forward event properties, you need to specify the event properties in the UI during the setup stage.
