This looks like a bug to me, ConversionTypeName segment is not of much use without a Conversions metric :).

I checked all the other report types and only 3 that include ConversionTypeName segment state it cannot be used with the Conversions metric.

Those reports are:
  • keywordless-query-report
  • keywordless-category-report
  • video-performance-report

Is this a bug/design oversight on these reports?

Thanks,

Andrew

Hello,

In some cases, a single click can be counted towards more than one conversion type. In reports where this interaction would produce confusing or altogether incorrect data, the fields are instead marked as incompatible with each other.
