Update and fix audiences request #38

Description

@wuservices

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.

We see v=1 in this MC,

but the implementation and data structure looks like it was copied from the Universal Analytics MC logic.

If I run the Google Tag, I see a request like this with v2, and different fields:

https://analytics.google.com/g/collect with the following parameters:

  • v=2
  • tid=[Tag ID]
  • gtm=
  • _p=
  • _gaz=
  • gcs=G111 [consent v2]
  • gcd
  • npa
  • dma
  • tag_exp
  • cid
  • ul
  • sr
  • uaa
  • uab
  • uafvl
  • uamb
  • uam
  • uap
  • uapv
  • uaw
  • are
  • pae
  • frm
  • pscdl
  • _s
  • sid
  • sct
  • seg
  • dl
  • en=page_view
  • _ee
  • tfd

There are multiple reports of issues with Zaraz GA4 and audiences in #zaraz Discord.

There's also a request made for https://td.doubleclick.net/td/ga/rul with many params, which isn't part of this MC. Not sure if that's for a different type of tracking though.
