help me understand what this is doing. if media_product_type is ad or feed and media_type != video then we're adding total_interactions and we're also removing it from media type carousel album? did they move the metric? why does this work?

To your first statement, yes thats what is being done. To the second, I have no idea... the pipelines started failing with this error all of a sudden and the API docs didn't suggest anything about removing this metric. Here is one useful thread I found but thats still unresolved.

More importantly, the pipelines this morning (Mar 8th 2024) ran just fine with no issues.
So looks like Meta was being Meta and just wasted sometime of ours.
So we could probably leave this PR out here for now and I will close it after a few days if there are no interruptions.

haha okay leave it open and i guess this is a small enough detail that we don't need to fully understand it.
IG pipelines started failing on Mar 7, 2024 with the below error:
400 Client Error: Bad Request - (#100) Incompatible metric (total_interactions) with the media for path: /{media_id}/insights
The error seemed to be specific for CAROUSEL_ALBUM though the IG API docs still mention about using total_interactions metric.
The pipeline ran successfully from local with this change.
