Day	String	True		True	When you use this dimension, data in the report is aggregated on a daily basis and each row contains data for one day.
Month	String	True			Data in the report is aggregated by calendar month. In the report, dates are listed in YYYY-MM format. Note: If your SQL query uses the Month dimension, then the StartDate and EndDate parameters must both be set to the first day of the month.
CreatorContentType	String	True			This dimension identifies the type of content associated with the user activity metrics in the data row. The allowed values are LIVE_STREAM, SHORTS, STORY, VIDEO_ON_DEMAND, UNSPECIFIED.
