Hi Jonas. Great question. Honestly, I think exposing this option was a tactical error on our part. Like described in our new UX handbook, input configuration like this is an implementation detail and should not be offloaded to the user
for now I would use trial and error starting with 14 days

well if you are using the basic access tier from fb, i’m afraid you might run into issues no matter what…

they are annoying about this ( you can only request a quota upgrade after 30 days of using the API last i checked) but you need to upgrade to the advanced access tier if possible
