  Dear Support,

As mentioned in the title, we are running into an issue where whenever we use the google Ads API to pull audience Segments data the Audience Names are coming back as IDs (Numbers) instead of their actual name, this only happens for some audience segments and not all.

For example: 
Criterion ID  ***********   is coming in as Audience Name = “95028” and Audience type = UNKNOWN
While
Criterion ID *********** is coming in as Audience Name = “CA URLs | OA-Cats” and Audience Type = CUSTOM_AUDIENCE

The second example is the correct way and should be how we get the audience names.

Here is an example output we get got Audience "95028":
ad_group_criterion { resource_name: "customers/***********/adGroupCriteria/***********~***********" criterion_id: *********** display_name: "95028" }
