Analytics API - Any limits on the number of days in a time_period=daily breakdown?

[brie]

Hi There!

Similar to my question in Analytics API - Are there any limits on how far back in history we can request data for?

Might be related to Too many date points requested - Analytics API

When requesting data through the API with a breakdown and daily time period, are there limits on the number of days in the request?

Further, is this limit the same when using d1 and d2 filters?

Specifically in regards to Get Breakdown By method

Thanks!

Hi @brie,

I'll just link to my post on the other relevant thread you linked:

Too many date points requested - Analytics API

Hi @gogrow_dev, The limit isn't an explicit length of time; it's 500 data points (which roughly corresponds to the number of entries in breakdowns). Requesting 10 years of data summarized daily won't work, but it probably would if you summarized monthly. As a rough rule, you'll want to keep timeframes under a year if it's split daily, under five years if it's split weekly, and under ten years if it's split monthly.
