Aaaaaah, I'm an idiot. The campaigns in question were set up a long time ago and most of the data was excluded by the DURING period specified in the query.
Thanks for prompting me to look more closely and spot the difference. While I've got someone answering, can you possibly point me in the right direction to ask questions about the Webmaster API? I've asked a question about an apparent bug in the verification API over in the forum <https://productforums.google.com/forum/#!category-topic/webmasters/verification/CJ8Mk6HU0kI> but I've got a resounding silence. Am I asking in the wrong place?
