Specific video fields like video.channel_id, video.duration_millis, video.id, video.resource_name, and video.title are available for selection, filtering, and sorting.
Various segments such as ad_format_type, date, and device, and metrics like all_conversions, clicks, cost_micros, and video_views can be used when querying video data.
