Google Analytics 4 Data API (v1alpha): Is there a way to use segments with runReport?

Question

We can not find a way to use segments with runReport method.

Tried to get reports with segments in Google Analytics, we can get them like below.

enter image description here

But now, there's no property for them in parameters of the "runReport" method in Google Analytics Data API v1alpha.

entity

dimensions[]

metrics[]

dateRanges[]

offset

limit

metricAggregations[]

dimensionFilter

How should we request "runReport" with segments?

Creating segments on the fly (inside the report query) is currently not supported in the Google Analytics Data API. However, you can use the Google Analytics UI to define an audience which specifies a desired segment criteria. Once the audience is created, you can use the Google Analytics Data API to query audiences using the audienceName dimension.
