yes i did all that of course. for example i found out by trial and error and pure inference (nothing in the docs) that a paused campaign doesn't really have a segment.date so when filtering on a specific date, you actually only get the active campaigns. that's what i infer from the results but I'm looking for an explanation as to why that is and a more in depth explanation as to in what cases a segment.date filter is not in fact applied even though the query is valid.
I can also see that filtering for different dates in the where clause doesn't actually affect the result - it just returns whatever is the current campaign snapshot. That is misleading and not explained - unless there is an part of the documentation i missed (not from the links provided) Thanks for your help!
