  "filters": {
    "product_category": ["Books & Media"]
  }
}

Filtering across multiple Reports:

{
  "ids": [152770, 152771, 152772],
  "filters": {
    "region": ["Asia Pacific"]
  }
}

Filering for multi-select filter:

{
  "ids": [152770],
  "filters": {
    "product_category": ["Sports & Outdoors","Automotive"]
  }
}

Filtering for a range of values:

{
  "ids": [152770, 152771],
  "filters": {
    "product_category": ["Sports & Outdoors", "Automotive"],
    "units_sold": {
      "from": 0,
      "to": 75000
