I noticed a constant discrepancy between the data obtained from facebook considerations when you get it from the API and get its CSV export. For example, for a specific metric ( page_impressions_unique_days_28), CSV reports:
2011/11/28 -> 374
2011/11/29 -> 355
2011/11/30 -> 341
So far, API reports:
Tue, 29 Nov 2011 00:00:00 PST -08:00 -> 374
Wed, 30 Nov 2011 00:00:00 PST -08:00 -> 355
Thu, 01 Dec 2011 00:00:00 PST -08:00 -> 341
As you can see, there is an offset in 1 day. I am in GMT + 1, but converting the API dates to my timezone does not change the day:
Tue, 29 Nov 2011 09:00:00 CET +01:00 -> 374
Wed, 30 Nov 2011 09:00:00 CET +01:00 -> 355
Thu, 01 Dec 2011 09:00:00 CET +01:00 -> 341
Does anyone know what is going on here? Am I asking about a time zone that I haven't thought about? Or when the api reports data for the day at midnight, referring to the full data of the previous day?
thank
