I've seen this on DSA campaigns (maybe a DSA bug).

Adwords Account ID (client customer ID): 5845103608


Fetching this report through the API:

{'dateRangeType': 'CUSTOM_DATE',
 'downloadFormat': 'CSV',
 'reportName': 'Custom CAMPAIGN_PERFORMANCE_REPORT',
 'reportType': 'CAMPAIGN_PERFORMANCE_REPORT',
 'selector': {'dateRange': {'max': '20170413', 'min': '20170411'},
  'fields': ['Date', 'CampaignId', 'BounceRate'],
  'predicates': []}}

Excerpt of the received CSV:

['2017-04-12,347606525,0.00%\n',
 '2017-04-11,347606525,100.00%\n',
 '2017-04-11,347606525,47.03%\n',
 '2017-04-12,347606525,44.35%\n',
 '2017-04-13,347606525,40.66%\n']

As you can see, some dates are present twice, with different bounce rates.

When adding another columns like Clicks or ClickAssistedConversions, Cost, the report is re-aggregated (example: the cost is doubled).

Hello Vlad,

I've gotten a couple of other reports from people on this. We're actively working on a solution. Thanks for writing this out so clearly! It made it easy to flag that I've seen this before. I'll post back here when we've made more progress on finding the source of the issue.

Best,
Nadine, AdWords API Team
