Hi,

since a few days, the location history API has been giving me only some subset of locations. Also the KML export (which only works if I fix the link as has been suggested) does the same.
The set of points returned is not the same as the filtered set of points which appears on the Latitude location history web site before you press "Show all points", but something in between (random?).

Anyone else experiencing this?

Cheers,
Michael

Hi Jamie,

yes, thank you! I work around the problem now by just fetching locations in smaller windows. Problem is, you never know when you got them all, because the number of locations returned is always smaller than maxresults.
Problem seems to be universal. Latify for Android (also an API client) also misses locations.

Cheers,
Michael

Hi, I am also having issues with location history, even after splitting a day into 32 separate requests I still am not getting all of the points I see when using the "Show all points" option on the latitude page, is there a separate (undocumented?) request arg to trigger this option?
