Discrepancy in recent reporting?


kaily.serralta

Hi all, 

Curious if there’s a bit of a lag or discrepancy in reporting recently on Sprout. I’m getting confused on a post that I see has about 67 engagements, but Sprout is showing wayyyy off. I’m not talking about clicking on hashtags. 

 

 

Any ideas?

I’ve noticed a similar thing with link clicks! Sprout Social reported that we had like 350 link clicks, but Facebook Business Manager said we had around 2,800. It’s a massive discrepancy. For some reason the original Arb post on this topic was deleted or else I’d share the conversation that happened there, but the TL;DR on it is that quite a few folks have noticed a difference between Sprout and Facebook’s analytics.

Hi ​@kaily.serralta, I did some investigation but couldn’t find anything specific that would be impacting your data. I would recommend opening a ticket with our support team to look at your account. You can submit that request here, or open a live chat within the Sprout Social tool. 

@kate.meyers emery, we don’t delete conversations in the Arb. I found your post in one of our customer-only gated spaces here:
