Frequently asked questions

Why don't the numbers match exactly with GSC?

Small discrepancies can occur due to rounding and how data is aggregated. Google sometimes shows "fresh" data that isn't final yet.

Why is data missing for recent days?

Google Search Console has about 2-3 days delay. This is a limitation in Google's API that we cannot bypass.

What happens if I disconnect?

All GSC data for the site is deleted from Besökskollen. You can always reconnect to fetch new data.
