Hello! When you create the Report Run in the API you can specify which columns you want to include: https://docs.stripe.com/api/reporting/report_run/create#create_reporting_report_run-parameters-columns

As far as I can tell columns are a distinct concept from these reporting categories. For example the event object shows its default columns, which make up the column headers in the dashboard report. I'm talking about the row headers
{
"object": {
"id": "ending_balance_reconciliation.summary.1",
"object": "reporting.report_type",
"data_available_end": 1708387200,
"data_available_start": 1410393600,
"default_columns": [
"reporting_category",
"currency",
"count",
"gross",
"fee",
"net"
],
"livemode": true,
"name": "Ending balance reconciliation summary",
"updated": 1708413813,
"version": 1
}
}The row headers under reporting_category

Sorry, not sure I understand. What do you mean by the row headers under reporting_category? reporting_category is a column in the report and only has that one value.

On second, I'll share a csv of the report to illustrate
See, this is a csv that is produced when you download. I'm talking about the leftmost column with all the categories in it
In test mode there are only two rows / reporting categories, whereas in live mode there are all these you see
But I cannot figure out why there are a different set of categories present, or any way to decide which categories will appear
I guess the most important thing is can I expect this set of categories to always be the set that is returned, or could there be fewer/more on a given day, and how would I know what to expect?

Oh, I see what you mean, thanks for sharing that.
As far as I know only the ones with data are included.

That's what I figured. Does that mean in principal that any of the categories documented here could appear if there were data? https://docs.stripe.com/reports/reporting-categories
unborn kestrel
Yep, that's correct.
