Greetings!
I finally tracked it down. So, if you scroll to the bottom in the UI on the
Locations page, you will see a sum for 'Locations', and you'll see a sum
for 'Other Locations'. If you add up those two sums, it will equal the
total in the API. I have no idea what this account total is coming from in
the UI, but it does not equal the sum of those two rows. What's really cool
is that the API breaks down 'Other Locations' into the specific locations.
That's why you end up with extra rows in the API that you don't see in the
UI. I'll send you the exact data privately. I just wanted to make sure if
someone bumped into this, they would know what to do. This took me awhile
to figure out because I made the assumption that the Total for everything
in the UI was the sum of all the rows. It isn't. I'm not an expert on the
UI, but perhaps there's another use for that row that I'm not aware of at
the moment.

Hello,
My apologies in my delay in getting back to you. We had a high priority
issue that came in that was affecting a number of users, and you're
question takes a lot of research and diving into the data to figure out. On
the surface, it doesn't look easy. Your issue is my next task. I'll get
back to you soon.
Cheers,
Nadine Sundquist, AdWords API Team

I download data from CAMPAIGN_LOCATION_TARGET_REPORT via API v201809.
At the same time I download data from CAMPAIGN_PERFORMANCE_REPORT.
I use fileds: Cost, Impressions, Clicks.
The SUM in total of this fields (Cost, Impressions, Clicks) has some
differens beetween two repots: CAMPAIGN_LOCATION_TARGET_REPORT,
CAMPAIGN_PERFORMANCE_REPORT
Numbers from CAMPAIGN_PERFORMANCE_REPORT are the same like in Web-inferface
- everything is OK.
But number from CAMPAIGN_LOCATION_TARGET_REPORT is little bit bigger. I
don't understand why?
Can you download this two reports for account 478-325-6348 and dates
2018-12-01 - 2018-12-31 all campaigns (no restrictions) and see the
difference.
My excpectations: SUMs should be the same. But I didnt get.
The code is below:
1)
fields = ['CampaignId', 'CampaignName', 'CampaignStatus', 'Id', 'Date',
'Interactions', 'InteractionTypes', 'Clicks', 'Impressions',
'Cost','Engagements', 'VideoViews', 'ViewThroughConversions',
'AveragePosition', 'CampaignStatus']
include_zero_impressions = True
report_query = (adwords.ReportQueryBuilder()
.Select(*fields)
.From('CAMPAIGN_LOCATION_TARGET_REPORT')
.Where('CampaignStatus').In('ENABLED', 'PAUSED')
.During(start_date.strftime('%Y%m%d') + ',' +
end_date.strftime('%Y%m%d'))
.Build())
res = report_downloader.DownloadReportAsStringWithAwql(
report_query, 'CSV', skip_report_header=True,
skip_column_header=False, skip_report_summary=True,
include_zero_impressions=include_zero_impressions)
import pandas as pd
from io import StringIO
adwords_df = pd.read_csv(StringIO(res))
2)
report = 'CAMPAIGN_PERFORMANCE_REPORT'
fields_query = ['Date', 'AccountDescriptiveName', 'AdvertisingChannelType',
'AdvertisingChannelSubType', 'AdNetworkType1', 'CampaignId',
'CampaignName', 'Impressions', 'Clicks', 'Cost', 'AccountCurrencyCode']
report_query = (adwords.ReportQueryBuilder()
.Select(*fields_query)
.From(report)
.Where('CampaignStatus').In('ENABLED', 'PAUSED')
.During(start_date.strftime('%Y%m%d') + ', ' +
end_date.strftime('%Y%m%d'))
.Build())
res = report_downloader.DownloadReportAsStringWithAwql(
report_query, 'CSV', skip_report_header=True,
skip_column_header=False, skip_report_summary=True,
include_zero_impressions=False,
)
adwords_df = pd.read_csv(StringIO(res))
