Remains of response properties in DfaReporting service objects?

[peterviergutz]

While switching from v0.11 to v0.27 of the google/apiclient-services (I'm upgrading from v2.7 to v2.8 of the DfaReporting service) I noticed that the returned objects seem to have remains of their response properties in them e.g. the idDimensionValue which is translated to id and the advertiserIdDimensionValue which is translated to advertiserId:

{
    "accountId": "---REMOVED---",
    "advertiserGroupId": null,
    "advertiserId": "---REMOVED---",
    "archived": false,
    "billingInvoiceCode": null,
    "comment": "---REMOVED---",
    "creativeGroupIds": null,
    "endDate": "2016-06-30",
    "externalId": null,
    "id": "---REMOVED---",
    "kind": "dfareporting#campaign",
    "name": "---REMOVED---",
    "nielsenOcrEnabled": false,
    "startDate": "2016-05-30",
    "subaccountId": "---REMOVED---",
    "traffickerEmails": null,
    "idDimensionValue": {
        "dimensionName": "dfa:campaignId",
        "etag": "---REMOVED---",
        "id": null,
        "kind": "dfareporting#dimensionValue",
        "matchType": null,
        "value": "---REMOVED---"
    },
    "advertiserIdDimensionValue": {
        "dimensionName": "dfa:advertiserId",
        "etag": "---REMOVED---",
        "id": null,
        "kind": "dfareporting#dimensionValue",
        "matchType": null,
        "value": "---REMOVED---"
    },
    "clickThroughUrlSuffixProperties": {
        "clickThroughUrlSuffix": null,
        "overrideInheritedSuffix": false
    },
    "defaultClickThroughEventTagProperties": {
        "defaultClickThroughEventTagId": null,
        "overrideInheritedEventTag": false
    },
    "creativeOptimizationConfiguration": {
        "id": "---REMOVED---",
        "name": null,
        "optimizationModel": "CLICK"
    },
    "lookbackConfiguration": {
        "clickDuration": -1,
        "postImpressionActivitiesDuration": -1
    },
    "createInfo": {
        "time": "1464613587668"
    },
    "lastModifiedInfo": {
        "time": "1484982797616"
    },
    "adBlockingConfiguration": {
        "clickThroughUrl": null,
        "creativeBundleId": null,
        "enabled": false,
        "overrideClickThroughUrl": false
    }
}

in v0.11 the resulting objects are much cleaner:

{
    "accountId": "---REMOVED---",
    "advertiserGroupId": null,
    "advertiserId": "---REMOVED---",
    "archived": false,
    "billingInvoiceCode": null,
    "comment": "---REMOVED---n",
    "creativeGroupIds": null,
    "endDate": "2016-06-30",
    "externalId": null,
    "id": "---REMOVED---",
    "kind": "dfareporting#campaign",
    "name": "---REMOVED---",
    "nielsenOcrEnabled": false,
    "startDate": "2016-05-30",
    "subaccountId": "---REMOVED---",
    "traffickerEmails": null
}

Code I'm using:

$campaignSearchCriteria = [
    'maxResults' => 1000,
    'sortField' => 'ID',
    'sortOrder' => 'DESCENDING',
    'advertiserIds' => [$advertiserId],
    'pageToken' => $pageToken,
];

$result = $this->dfaReportingService->campaigns->listCampaigns($this->dfaProfileId, $campaignSearchCriteria);

Installed google libraries:

✗ composer show | grep google
google/apiclient                          v2.2.0             Client library for Google APIs
google/apiclient-services                 v0.27              Client library for Google APIs
google/auth                               v1.0.1             Google Auth Library for PHP
googleads/googleads-php-lib               13.1.0             Google Ads APIs Client Library for PHP (AdWords and DFP)

Is this intentional?

Thank you.

You should be able to use the fields parameter to get a smaller result back.
