Can you trust the numbers in Omni?

What does Omni keep track of?

• Omni can hand over every chart on a dashboard as its own spreadsheet file, kept together in one folder.

  In Omni's own words: For CSV, a ZIP folder will be created that contains a CSV for each tile on the dashboard. Downloading dashboards, read 2026-11-12.

• Omni stores query results for a while, so two people opening the same report can be shown the same saved answer.

  In Omni's own words: Omni caches the results of individual queries to share between users observing the exact same data sets. Improving query performance with caching, read 2026-11-12.

What can make Omni's numbers look wrong?

1. A number on an Omni dashboard can be up to several hours behind the database, because Omni's docs say results are kept and reused for 6 hours by default.

   In Omni's own words: Query results are cached for 6 hours by default, and shared between users with relevant permissions to the data set. Improving query performance with caching, read 2026-11-12.

2. A table in Omni can look incomplete when it hits its row limit, since Omni's docs say the limit only cuts what is shown, not what was counted.

   In Omni's own words: Row limits don't impact the rows processed, only the rows available in the Omni UI. Building point-and-click queries, read 2026-11-12.

3. Adding up the rows on screen can give a smaller total than the real one, because, as Omni's docs explain, a query shows 1,000 rows unless someone sets another limit.

   In Omni's own words: If not set, the system default of 1,000 rows is used. default_row_limit - Model files, read 2026-11-12.

4. A daily total in Omni can differ from the same day in another tool, since Omni's docs say it can shift times into another time zone when it builds each query.

   In Omni's own words: Omni can convert time-based data to different timezones, performing the conversion when it generates SQL for a query. Understanding timezone conversion & connection settings, read 2026-11-12.

How do I check Omni's numbers myself?

1. An owner can copy the exact query behind an Omni number and run it straight against the database to see whether the answer matches.

   In Omni's own words: In fact, you could copy this SQL query and run it in another IDE pointed at the database. Workbook inspector, read 2026-11-12.

2. Switching on column totals gives a Total row in Omni that can be set against the same total in the source system.

   In Omni's own words: Enabling column totals adds a Total row at the bottom of the table. Building point-and-click queries, read 2026-11-12.

How does Omni work with Feder?

Connect Omni to Feder and it joins your Visits apps. Feder only reads. It never changes anything in Omni.

When you connect Omni, Feder checks the connection straight away and shows Connected only when that check passes. If a reading cannot be taken later, Feder shows it as not read, never as zero.

Questions owners ask about Omni

• Why does my Omni dashboard show a different daily count than my database?Relative date filters such as today or yesterday follow the query time zone, so the day they cover can differ from the database's day.
• Why does my GA4 event count look doubled for the latest day in Omni?If GA4 data reaches BigQuery through both the daily and the streaming export, an Omni view that reads every GA4 table can count a day twice while that day's intraday and daily tables both exist.
• Why don't my weekly or quarterly visit totals in Omni line up with my calendar?The day a week starts on can be set for the whole model, for a topic or for a single date field, and the most specific setting wins, so two charts can split the same days into different weeks.
