We've been pulling daily download reports (First-time downloads + Redownloads) via ONGOING requests and noticed random missing days in our data — in April alone, we are missing the 11th, 14th, 23rd, and 27th.
After debugging, here's what's actually happening:
- Apple sometimes publishes two consecutive ONGOING instances with identical content (same processingDate → same Date in the CSV)
- The day after a duplicate, the CSV skips a date entirely — that data is simply never published
- Those missing days are gone forever. There's no way to recover them via API
Does anyone know if there is a way to fix this and recover lost days?
