The following request returns a higher value than the interface with the same settings (date range, filters, etc.): 
 "body": "__fmt=CSV&__rdquery=SELECT CampaignId, CampaignName, Id, Criteria, KeywordMatchType, Clicks FROM KEYWORDS_PERFORMANCE_REPORT WHERE Impressions > 0 AND CampaignId IN [\"1712687432\"] DURING 20210101,20210331",
"url": "https://adwords.google.com/api/adwords/reportdownload/v201809"

For example the  clicks value for 'Diseases of the Liver" & "liver failure" is 1753 on the user interface and the sum of the values returned from the API is 1826 (1753+73+0+0). 

What can cause this difference?

Reposting the last inquiry (https://groups.google.com/g/adwords-api/c/xqTDhbkumXg/m/hYwqXz8cBwAJ) from the forum as it wasn't routed to our support queue.
