Things to consider
Time-related dimensions use daily granularity
The Piwik PRO API always returns metric data with a daily granularity when any time-related dimensions (such as Date, Month, or Year) are included in your query. This can create inconsistencies if you attempt to split metrics at a granularity other than daily, as these metrics might not be intended for aggregation from daily data. For example “Visitors” as this is unique metric.
