Things to consider
Day, hour, and total granularities
We currently only use the DAY and HOUR granularities offered by the Snapchat Marketing API. We don’t use TOTAL, as we may calculate some of the metrics on our side, and using TOTAL leads to issues and discrepancies in those cases.
Some additional details and conditions apply to unique count fields like the uniques, frequency, attachment_frequency and attachment_uniques metrics. See Snapchat Marketing API documentation for more details.
