# Good to know about Snapchat Marketing

This article outlines recommendations and notes certain limitations imposed by the data source API, which you may need to consider when building your queries.

If you’re connecting to Snapchat Marketing, follow the instructions in our [connection guide](/v1/docs/snapchat-marketing-connection-guide). See [Snapchat Marketing metrics and dimensions](/v1/docs/snapchat-marketing-fields) for the fields available in this data source.

## Request limits and recommended refresh rate

**Request limit**: See [Snapchat Marketing’s documentation](https://marketingapi.snapchat.com/docs/#rate-limits).

**Recommended refresh window**: 4 days. Note that there’s an API delay of 2 days.

## Historical range

There are no known limitations to the historical range of data you can pull with the Snapchat Marketing data source connector.

## Accounts in Snapchat Marketing

In the Snapchat Marketing connector, each Ad account is considered a separate account within the connection.

Your Supermetrics subscription determines the number of [data source accounts](https://docs.supermetrics.com/docs/about-data-source-accounts) you can use simultaneously.

## 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](https://marketingapi.snapchat.com/docs/#additional-metrics).
