Analytics Reports API: ONE_TIME_SNAPSHOT stuck with reports but no instances, and deleted snapshot still blocks recreation (409)

Hello,

We are trying to back up App Store Connect Analytics data before an app transfer, and we are seeing two different problems with ONE_TIME_SNAPSHOT requests.

Apps

  • com.estmob.paprika (App ID: 596642855)
  • com.estmob.ios.sendy.app (App ID: 1489041568)

Issue 1: Paprika snapshot exists, but no instances or segments are ever generated

Current snapshot request:

  • Request ID: 4a40d802-5cd4-4bb2-ad53-8539f43c9ce2

What we see:

  • GET /v1/analyticsReportRequests/4a40d802-5cd4-4bb2-ad53-8539f43c9ce2 returns 200
  • The request has a reports relationship
  • GET /v1/analyticsReportRequests/{id}/reports returns 127 analyticsReports
  • However, for all of those reports, GET /v1/analyticsReports/{reportId}/instances returns no instances
  • Therefore there are still no segments and no downloadable raw files

As of May 26, 2026, the state is still:

  • reports: 127
  • reportsWithInstances: 0
  • instances: 0
  • segments: 0

Issue 2: Sendy snapshot was deleted, but creating a new snapshot still fails with 409

Previous snapshot request:

  • Request ID: d40503ae-7a75-4d88-a8a6-115456c333cc

Current state:

  • GET /v1/analyticsReportRequests/d40503ae-7a75-4d88-a8a6-115456c333cc now returns 404
  • Listing analyticsReportRequests for the app shows no visible ONE_TIME_SNAPSHOT request
  • Only the ONGOING request is visible

However, creating a new ONE_TIME_SNAPSHOT still fails with:

  • 409 STATE_ERROR
  • "You already have such an entity"

We also found this forum thread, which seems related:

Questions

  1. For Paprika, does this mean the ONE_TIME_SNAPSHOT is still processing, or is it stuck?
  2. For Sendy, is this expected behavior due to a cooldown / retention rule after deleting a snapshot request?
  3. If Sendy is blocked by backend state, how long should we wait before a new ONE_TIME_SNAPSHOT can be created?
  4. Is there anything else we should check to determine whether the Paprika snapshot will eventually produce instances and segments?

This is currently blocking our analytics backup for app transfer. If needed, I can provide additional request/response details.

Thank you.
