I am unsure of how to use segments as breakdowns in the reporting API. In the data warehouse request builder, it's as simple as picking a segment as it will add it as a breakdown, but in the API it only gives me the option to use multiple segments. Is there some documentation that will explain this? Thanks!

The data warehouse API does not support using segments as dimensions, unfortunately. That's an ability that is specific to Analysis Workspace.

Thanks for the documentation! I'm still not sure how to proceed though, I guess I'll try and show what I'm trying to do.
This is a sample request when I manually go into datawarehouse
OVERALL SEGMENT - Homepage Visits
Breakdowns -
evar1 -> evar50 -> visits_that_clicked_link (This is a segment)
Metric -
Visits
So a sample result would look like this
Date evar1 evar50 visits_that_clicked_link visits
April 1 sample.com USA 0 100
April 1 sample.com USA 1 150
April 1 sample.com EU 0 53
April 1 sample.com EU 1 34
In the API, it only gives me the option to select multiple segments as an overall filter, but it won't use them as breakdowns.
