I'm having problems with the audience report and segmentation.

I've done this request

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<reportDefinition xmlns:ns2="https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/cm/v201506">
   <ns2:selector>
      <ns2:fields>Id</ns2:fields>
      <ns2:predicates>
         <ns2:field>IsNegative</ns2:field>
         <ns2:operator>EQUALS</ns2:operator>
         <ns2:values>false</ns2:values>
      </ns2:predicates>
      <ns2:dateRange>
         <ns2:min>20131023</ns2:min>
         <ns2:max>20151023</ns2:max>
      </ns2:dateRange>
   </ns2:selector>
   <ns2:reportName>AUDIENCE_STRUCTURE_1030923267</ns2:reportName>
   <ns2:reportType>AUDIENCE_PERFORMANCE_REPORT</ns2:reportType>
   <ns2:dateRangeType>CUSTOM_DATE</ns2:dateRangeType>
   <ns2:downloadFormat>GZIPPED_CSV</ns2:downloadFormat>
   <ns2:includeZeroImpressions>true</ns2:includeZeroImpressions>
</reportDefinition>

And this is an example of the result

"AUDIENCE_STRUCTURE_1030923267 (Oct 23, 2013-Oct 23, 2015)"
Criterion ID
117619875681
117619875681
117619876161
117619876161
117621389601
117621389601
117621389361
117621389361
117619875201
117619875201
117621389841
117621389841
117619875921
117619875921
117619875441
117619875441
117618750081
117618750081
117618750081
117618750081
117618750081
117618750081
117618750081
117618750081
117618750081
117618750081
117618750081
117618750081

I dont understand why api returns a segementated view, i've only ask for the audience Id.

I've tried with Id and criteria and the same result.

Thanks
Gabriel

Hi Gabriel,

The Audience Performance Report is segmented not only by its Audience but also by its adgroup. Different adgroups can have the same criteria ID, so the stats you see will reflect that. I will talk to the team about modifying our document so that this is clearer to understand.
