- The API is very quick to throttle so running 2 or more extracts at once is not recommended.
- Large data volumes can take a long time to run.
Duplicates on Campaign Clicks report for connector version 0.0.4
- Older versions of the connector (earlier than 0.0.3) had the chance of missing clicks when extracting of data has started very soon after a campaign has been created. This is resolved in version 0.0.3 & above.
- The solution for the above problem means that the Campaign Clicks report (on connector version 0.0.4) will have duplicates when ran incrementally. These need to be dealt with in transforms.
