Data Connect Refresh

Documentation says it refreshes every 4 hours. Does anyone know what that looks like? Is it midnight, 4am, 8am, 12pm, 4pm, 8pm? And would it be your instance's time zone?

    I’m not sure if it’s the same for everyone, but ours refreshes at 4:20, 8:20,12:20, etc according to the timestamps. That may be the time the refresh finishes so it may start around 4, 8, 12. In Snowflake, this information is in the MONITORING_DATA_REFRESHES view which says when each object type was last refreshed. We can also see on each row record in any object the “DL_LOAD_TIMESTAMP” field which should be when that row was last updated. Based on how I read the timestamps, they appear to be in the UTC time zone.
