Youtube Analytics and Reporting API doesn't generate new reports for job created

Some days ago I used the code below to create a new job on Youtube's Analytics and Reporting API. The createTime for this job is 2022-07-25T13:54:51Z.

def create_job(token, reportTypeId, name):    print(F"START: RUNNING create_job")    data = {"reportTypeId": reportTypeId,"name": name}    resp = requests.post("https://youtubereporting.googleapis.com/v1/jobs",                         headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer " + token},                         json = data)    print(F"DONE: RUNNING create_job")    return None

I waited the 24h for the API to generate the reports, and when I ran the code below to list the existing reports for that job, I got urls for distinct dates.

def list_job_reports(token, jobId):    print(F"START: RUNNING list_job_reports")    # Fetching all existing reports for this job    url = f"https://youtubereporting.googleapis.com/v1/jobs/{jobId}/reports"    resp = requests.get(url,                        headers = {"Authorization": "Bearer " + token})    resp = json.loads(resp.text)    # Wrangling resp into dictionary with report date and url    reports_dict = {}    for row in resp['reports']:        report_date = row['startTime'].split('T')[0]        download_url = row['downloadUrl']        reports_dict[report_date] = download_url    print(F"DONE: RUNNING list_job_reports")    return reports_dict

I ran the function above on 2022-07-26, and the maximum date for a report generated was 2022-07-25 (same date as the job creation). Today, on 2022-07-28, I expected to have new reports, for 26th and 27th, but when I run list_job_reports now, the latest report is still the one for the 25th. It is as if the job didn't generate new daily reports automatically. I took a look at the documentation and I saw that just by creating a job, new reports should be generated daily (print below).

Did I miss something? Do I need to trigger the daily report generation somehow?
