Limitations

Backfilling

When backfilling data that's more than a month, the job will be split into multiple jobs. Therefore, you will have to wait until all of them are done to get all of the results that you want.

Timezones

Snapchat gets each ad account’s specific timezone to use in the report from an endpoint that supplies account information.

Quotas

Snapchat doesn’t give specific numbers to the rate limits. The only information they can give are the names and types of the header whenever you hit the limit: https://developers.snapchat.com/api/docs/#rate-limits

Selectable Accounts
