I'm confused by how the ExternalConversionSource segment field is to be used in a report.  The segmentation documentation says to simply include the fields, but the doc for the reports (e.g. Account Performance Report) says the field is not compatible with most of the metrics and the API (201609) rejects the field combination.

How are we to reproduce the UI report, segmented by Conversion source?

Hello Mike,

ExternalConversionSource is now made compatible with Conversions and ConversionRate.
Currently, the field is designed to be used with only conversion-related fields.
