Timezone & Date Handling

Reddit Ads data is reported in whatever timezone is configured on the Reddit Ads account at the time NinjaCat fetches it. Keep the following behavior in mind when reviewing or troubleshooting Reddit Ads data:

• No timezone conversion is applied. The Reddit Ads adapter does not convert or normalize timestamps. Data arrives in whatever timezone the Reddit account is set to at fetch time.
• Timezone changes are not retroactive. If you change the timezone on your Reddit Ads account, only data pulled in new fetches will reflect the updated timezone.
• Historical data retains its original timezone. Records that were already fetched before a timezone change will continue to be stored under the timezone that was in effect when they were originally pulled. A re-fetch is required if you need historical data to align to a new timezone.
