We've listed below the different limits for historical ranges, API delays, and recommended refresh windows of data available from different data sources.
A standard Supermetrics license supports as much history as each data source allows (data warehouse, cloud storage, and data lake licenses are an exception with an upgradable limit of 2 years).
Please note that this list isn't exhaustive. If a data source doesn't have a recommended refresh window, 3 days is a good starting point.
