I have added AWS Pinpoint Analytics through Amplify in my Android application. I am recording custom events based on the official tutorial:

val event: AnalyticsEvent = AnalyticsEvent.builder()
        .name("PasswordReset")
        .addProperty("Channel", "SMS")
        .addProperty("Successful", true)
        .addProperty("ProcessDuration", 792)
        .addProperty("UserAge", 120.3)
        .build()

Amplify.Analytics.recordEvent(event)

The events are being recorded in the AWS Pinpoint console:

Unfortunately, it is not possible to filter by specific event (Session Start and Session End are the only possible filters):

How to show counts for each custom event I have created? How could I find properties values from each recorded event? If that is not possible then there is no point in creating custom events.

In this case patience was the key. After about an hour the filter for the custom event appeared.

    Did you find a better way to analyze the custom events？ For example, import the event record to database and query it with sql. – dragonfly Dec 01 '21 at 15:03
  • I didn't try any other way as it was basic use case, however as I can see you may e.g. [stream the events to kinesis](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/pinpoint/latest/developerguide/event-streams.html) and analyse them there. – MiHu Dec 02 '21 at 16:25
  • @dragonfly have you looked into this further? – alexrogo Jun 02 '22 at 16:55
  • @alexrogo yes, I used Athena to create db and query with sql. – dragonfly May 23 '23 at 08:11
