Why API doesn`t provide a full list of lookalike audiences for a particular marketer?

We are faced with the problem of getting a list of lookalike audiences via API.
Here is the endpoint that returns a list of audiences for a given marketer:
https://backstage.taboola.com/backstage/api/1.0/spine-deforg-sc/universal_pixel/custom_audience_rule
But it doesn't contain the audience we need, namely LAL Page 15
But if we retrieve this audience separately, then API returns the result

Why country and platform filters do not work for by_hour_of_day dimention?

It is stated in the documentation that platform and country filters are available for by_hour_of_day dymention https://developers.taboola.com/backstage-api/reference#campaign-summary-dimensions, but they do not work. API returns success response, but the numbers do not change irrespective of the value of the filter

Is there a way to get hourly statistic for a specific campaign via API?

We need to have an ability to get hourly statistic for specific campaigns. There is such an ability on the UI (https://i.imgur.com/LSP2LyO.png), but we did`t find a way to get this statistic via the API (https://i.imgur.com/R3rEqZS.png).

Block Levels

I'm looking at your Campaign Summary reports (specifically in relation to the platform_breakdown dimension), and I'm trying to understand the potential blocking_level values listed in your documentation.

Retroactively changing data

Hi everyone!
There’s the following note in API guide:
“It’s important to note that data in Taboola reports can (and will) change retroactively during the Taboola billing cycle.
This means that when fetching report data from Taboola for a data warehouse or BI solution, the data for the entire billing cycle (current calendar month + previous calendar month up to the 5th in any given month) should be periodically refreshed.”
Does it mean that if we update report data daily, then today (for example) we need to request data for the period 5th of Jan - today?
2. There is a field “last_used_rawdata_update_time” in response. What does this value stand for? Does it indicate the date when the report was lastly updated? So if today we get a report with last_used_rawdata_update_time = 6th of Feb then we don’t need to update our DWH as nothing changed since this date?

"top_campaign_content_report" API returning NULL for certain items

We are receiving a null value for 'item' in the "top_campaign_content_report" table. We have made the primary key for the table "top_campaign_content_report", which is a hash value of item, date, item_name, campaign_id fields. Sometimes, we get a null value for the item field in the response, for eg:
