Step 8 Schedule Updates: Select how often you want your inventory to be updated
The time and frequency will depend our your import schedule in GoDataFeed. Typically, we are importing your data once daily around 1am EST. This means, for example, you will most likely select "Daily at 1:50am". If you have configured more imports in GoDataFeed, or if the import takes a long time, then you will need to take these into consideration. After each data import into our system, we compile the feed so that it is ready to be fetched by Facebook there after. Review your import history to figure out the best time for Facebook to fetch the feed.
