Hello,
The Account Performance Report does not support labels. Please see our Report
Types guide
<https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/appendix/reports#account>
for a complete list of columns this report supports.
This also makes sense, because labels cannot be applied to accounts
specifically. Only fields which can have labels applied to them would make
sense to have label-based options on their reports.
Regards,
Mike, AdWords API Team
