Smartly runs its report every night after 1am in your account timezone and always uploads the metrics for the previous day. The performance reporting data should appear in Search Ads 360 within 48 hours. If you don't see this data within 48 hours, contact Search Ads 360 support.
Search Ads 360 deduplicates overlapping uploads
If the uploaded metrics overlap, Search Ads 360 overrides the previously uploaded metrics with the most recent upload. For example:
- Every afternoon you upload metrics from today and yesterday.
So Monday's upload contains all metrics from Sunday and metrics for Monday morning and afternoon. - Tuesday's upload contains all metrics from Monday and partial metrics from Tuesday.
Tuesday's upload will completely overwrite the partial data previously uploaded for Monday.
