We run a site called magictbl.com, pulling data from google Adwords report API. In December, we started including the result from Google display network&Youtube advertisement. We derive yesterday’s impression data in every morning time in Korean standard time.
However, last Friday, we discovered that ad performance report API returns different data when we request this data after a week. For instance, for ad A data January 19: impression was 254 in January 20, was 255 in January 26. For ad B in January 20 in January 26.
impression was 2249 in January 20, was changed as 2250 in January 26.
We assume that adwords takes a couple of days to finish collecting data from its engine. But, we need clear explanation.
Any idea or comment for this fact? Why the API returns different value after one day and few days? Should we put off the request time after few hours?
