change_status doesn't return shared sets changes

[Igor Gavryushkin]

Hi, our attempts to use change_status for tracking changes made to shared sets of keywords return no data. More over, adding to the query attributed resource fields from shared_set object, which according to the Query Builder are available throws an error in Java API. 

Here's the query:

SELECT change_status.resource_name,
change_status.last_change_date_time,
change_status.resource_status,
change_status.resource_type,
change_status.ad_group,
change_status.ad_group_ad,
change_status.ad_group_bid_modifier,
change_status.ad_group_criterion,
change_status.ad_group_feed,
change_status.campaign,
change_status.campaign_criterion,
change_status.campaign_feed,
change_status.feed,
change_status.feed_item,
change_status.campaign_shared_set,
change_status.shared_set,
campaign.name,
campaign.id,
ad_group.name,
shared_set.resource_name,
ad_group.id
FROM change_status
WHERE change_status.last_change_date_time BETWEEN '2024-03-27' AND '2024-04-26'

AND campaign.advertising_channel_type IN ('DISPLAY', 'SEARCH', 'SHOPPING')
ORDER BY change_status.last_change_date_time ASC
LIMIT 10000

The culprit here is shared_set.resource_name (or any attribute from shared_set). Running it w/o explicit shared_set attributes seems to return blanks in the change_status.shared_set and change_status.campaign_shared_set for an account that has shared set changes.
Running it with shared_set.resource_name returns an error:
