The current audience request for GA4 audiences from this MC does not work and is not a valid request for GA4.
We were using this and seeing 0 data in Google Ads, and Google Ads support noticed we were not sending a request with v=2, which is sent for GA4 audience requests. v=1 is the legacy version associated with (now dead) Universal Analytics.
