Description

I’m currently unable to create eligible custom audiences in GA4 for my Google Ads account, which is impacting my ability to implement dynamic remarketing.

As per Google Support, this issue appears to stem from the absence of certain cookies in my request URL. When I reviewed the requestBuilder.ts file, I noticed that specific parameters aren’t appended to ep and epn on line 155. According to [Google’s documentation](https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/13327091?hl=en), it seems I may need to extend this suppression of ep and epn to additional parameters (NID, SNID, ANID, ID, IDE, and DSID).

Is there a way to apply this suppression for ep and epn in this context?

Thank you and Best regards

Research direction

Start in requestBuilder.ts at line 155 and compare the current ep and epn parameter handling with Google's linked documentation. Verify how the request URL is built and determine whether NID, SNID, ANID, ID, IDE, and DSID should receive the same suppression treatment. Done means eligible Google Ads dynamic remarketing audiences can be created without the reported missing-cookie behavior.
