Sam, A Criteria Performance Report(link <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/appendix/reports#criteria>) can get you a criterion along with it's associated ad group id. By also getting a campaign or adgroup performance report and then combining them on your side, you can almost always get the data you need.
If you have not used ad-hoc reporting for AdWords API before, this page <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/guides/reporting> is very helpful. Hope this helps!
