On the **Metadata** step, select which [**metadata fields**](/docs/metadata-inclusion) such as extraction time to add to your data. 7. On the **Snapshot** step: 1. Configure your [**sync frequency**](/docs/extraction#extraction-frequency) or click **Show advanced settings** to set the exact synchronization time. **DATADDO TIP** To **load historical data**, refer to the [**Data Backfilling**](https://docs.dataddo.com/docs/data-backfilling) article. 2. [Optional] Enable the **Allow Empty Data Extractions** toggle to allow the extraction when no data is available. 8. In the top-right corner, click **Test Data** button to preview extracted data. **Adjust the date range** for specific time frame. 9. Click on **Save** and **congratulations, your new data source is ready!** --- ## Limitations ### Number of Rows The Taboola API allows by default the extraction of up to **500,000 rows** per call. Increase the limit manually by editing the URL in the Source Advanced Settings (go to Sources - Cling on the three dots next to the source - Edit - Advanced Settings-URL). The very last number of the URL defines the limit. ### Data Delay Due to performance limitations, Taboola data may experience delays of up to **3 hours**. ### Historical Data Limitation The Taboola API allows you to extract data up to **3 years** per call. If you have older data, load it in multiple batches. ## Troubleshooting ### Data Preview Unavailable No data preview when you click on **Test Data** might be caused by an issue with your ***source*** configuration. The most common causes are: - **Date range**: Try a smaller date range. You can load the rest of your data afterward via [manual data load](https://docs.dataddo.com/docs/data-backfilling). - **Insufficient permissions**: Please make sure your authorized account has at least admin-level permissions. ## Related Articles Now that you have successfully created a ***data source***, see how you can connect your data to a dashboarding app or a data storage. **Sending Data to Dashboarding Apps** - [Simple Data Integration to Dashboards](https://docs.dataddo.com/docs/simple-data-integration-to-dashboards) - [Data Backfilling to Dashboarding Apps](https://docs.dataddo.com/docs/data-backfilling-to-dashboarding-apps) **Sending Data to Data Storages** - [Batch Ingestion to Data Warehouses](https://docs.dataddo.com/docs/ingestion-to-data-warehouses) - [Data Backfilling to Storages](https://docs.dataddo.com/docs/data-backfilling-to-storages) **Other Resources** - [Troubleshooting](https://docs.dataddo.com/docs/troubleshooting) - [Extraction Logs](https://docs.dataddo.com/docs/extraction-logs) - [Data Duplication](https://docs.dataddo.com/docs/data-duplication) Authorizers act as credentials for external services (e.g. Facebook or Google).
