### Export schedule

Scheduled exports are affected by the time and day of week of when you initially create the export. When you create a scheduled export, the export runs at the same time of day for each subsequent export occurrence. For example, you create a daily export at 1:00 PM. The next export runs at 1:00 PM the following day. The current time affects all other export types in the same manner—they always run at the same time of day as when you initially created the export. In a different example, you create a weekly export at 4:00 PM on Monday. The next report runs at 4:00 PM the following Monday. *Exported data is available within four hours of run time.*

Scheduled exports are affected by the time and day of week of when you initially create the export. When you create a scheduled export, the export runs at the same frequency for each subsequent export occurrence. For example, for a month-to-date export set at a daily frequency, the export runs daily. Similarly for a weekly export, the export runs every week on the same day as it is scheduled. The exact delivery time of the export is not guaranteed and the exported data is available within four hours of run time."

Each export creates a new file, so older exports are not overwritten.
