Hi Tom, The error CUSTOMER_SERVING_TYPE_REPORT_MISMATCH <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/common-errors#ReportDefinitionError.CUSTOMER_SERVING_TYPE_REPORT_MISMATCH> is encountered because you are using a manager account to run your reports. Reports can only be downloaded on a client level.
The Account Performance Report <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/appendix/reports/account-performance-report> retrieves metrics on an account level. With this said, it is expected behavior that it would return a single row only not unless you included segments for your account. If you wish to get the report for other client accounts, you have to run the report against the individual client account. If you wish to download reports in the manager account level and get the report for it's client accounts, you may refer to the Parallel Report Download sample code <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/samples/java/reporting#download-a-report-for-multiple-accounts> (also available in different languages) on how to do so.
