The Facebook API does not support the combination of certain fields, breakdowns and levels. This is reflected in the connect dialog through the field groups and/or breakdowns being greyed out. Some field groups are also dependent on a level, e.g Ad creative data is only available on Ad level. Some breakdowns are dependent on a field group, e.g. Conversion Device is dependent on Actions and conversions or Video metrics.
