Data nuances
- Meta’s API limits history to the past 36 months from the date the connection is created.
- By default, SourceMedium reports Meta conversions and revenue on 7-day click, 1-day view.
- Other windows are available on request through your account manager or integrations@sourcemedium.com: 1-day click, 7-day click, 28-day click, and 1-day view. Meta removed the longer view-through windows from its API in January 2026, so only the one-day view window exists.
