Different clicks and cost in the geographic_view/user_location_view

[Kate Orlova]

Hi! I'm trying to get data from geographic_view and user_location_view, but I see different results when adding some segments (i.e segments.geo_target_city)

curl --http1.1 --header "Authorization: Bearer ${AUTH_TOKEN}" --header "Content-Type: application/json" --header "developer-token: ${DEV_TOKEN}" --header "login-customer-id: ${LOGIN_CUSTOMER_ID}" --data-raw '{"query": "SELECT geographic_view.country_criterion_id, geographic_view.location_type,  metrics.cost_micros, metrics.clicks FROM geographic_view where segments.date='20220126'"}' "https://googleads.googleapis.com/v10/customers/${CUSTOMER_ID}/googleAds:searchStream"

returns 29 clicks

curl --http1.1 --header "Authorization: Bearer ${AUTH_TOKEN}" --header "Content-Type: application/json" --header "developer-token: ${DEV_TOKEN}" --header "login-customer-id: ${LOGIN_CUSTOMER_ID}" --data-raw '{"query": "SELECT geographic_view.country_criterion_id, geographic_view.location_type, segments.geo_target_city, segments.geo_target_metro, segments.geo_target_region, metrics.cost_micros, metrics.clicks FROM geographic_view where segments.date='20220126'"}' "https://googleads.googleapis.com/v10/customers/${CUSTOMER_ID}/googleAds:searchStream"

returns only 28 clicks

I can't understand why I have different clicks value here. Thank you!
