Include insights in call to account campaigns

[kickbk]

Is there a way to use nested requests to grab insights for each adset like so?

params = {
    'time_range': {
        'since': '2019-08-01',
        'until': '2019-08-31',
    }
}
ad_account.campaigns(fields: ['adsets{id, insights{spend, impressions}}'], params: params).to_json

Or in other words - Facebook, please get all the adsets in each campaign, and for each adset, please include insights for a specific date range.

How does one request this? It would be wasteful to grab the ID of each adset and then do a call to adset.insights

So, surprisingly, Facebook DOES return insights with my call. Sometimes. No explanation why, but I tried with two accounts and got on one account insights and the other not. Maybe it has something to do with the insights returned with this call have a shorter lifespan, so you can't get insights for older ads. Not sure. Not going to read through the million of pages.

My solution, for whoever is interested. I made a call to adaccount insights directly, and specified the level as 'ad' so ir will return insights for all the account ads. I also requested the 'ad_id'. Later I was able to match the results returned with this call to the previous call I mentioned by comparing the ad ID, and merge the results.

ad_account.insights(
    fields: ['ad_id', 'spend', 'impressions', 'clicks', 'ctr', 'cpc'], 
    level: 'ad',
    time_range: {
        since: date_since,
        until: date_until
    }
).to_json
