Resolution

The oData query in SAC returns the same data that's returned when executed in the browser. If it doesn't work in browser, it won't work in SAC.

As per the SAC documentation (https://help.sap.com/docs/SAP_ANALYTICS_CLOUD/00f68c2e08b941f081002fd3691d86a7/7dba0c7838af4e428a88217eaa8994f4.html#procedure), SAC have recommended the report-based oData connection, /sap/byd/odata/cc_home_analytics.svc. 

If you read the C4C documentation (https://help.sap.com/docs/SAP_CLOUD_FOR_CUSTOMER/66e9a9081a7b40e38c8604d6617d0311/extract-report-data-using-odata-ddb9bc5e63ad4333b455f9a906dcd4cf?locale=en-US&state=PRODUCTION&version=CLOUD#conventions-for-building-odata-services-for-the-sap-solution), you should note that this URL only works for Business Users and not Technical Users.

Additionally, this access is based on the reports available to the specific user and so you need to consider the Business Role assigned to the user. Please also review 2602051 - Users Cannot Access Reports via ODATA (https://me.sap.com/notes/2602051) for more information on how to ensure full access. I have double checked internally and ana_businessanalytics_analytics.svc is working for this connection also.

In summary, the issue is that you are not using the a Business User credential with full access and therefore the results are incomplete. Please rebuild the connection with either https://myxxxxxx.crm.ondemand.com/sap/byd/odata/cc_home_analytics.svc or https://myxxxxxx.crm.ondemand.com/sap/byd/odata/ana_businessanalytics_analytics.svc and enter the credentials of a Administrative Business User that has the necessary report assignments.
