+## Using Google Ads with the Connect API Proxy
+
+To interface with Google Ads via the [Connect API Proxy](https://pipedream.com/docs/connect/api-proxy), you essentially need to nest the request like this:
+
+**Important notes:**
+
+- The upstream URL in this case is Pipedream's proxy service for Google Ads
+- Like in the [above examples](#customizing-api-requests-from-within-the-pipedream-workflow-builder), you'll define the Google Ads URL with the `url` param in the `body`
+- The `method` to the Connect Proxy should always be a `POST`, since it's actually targeting the Google Ads proxy (define the method for the Google Ads request in `options.body.method`)
+
+### Using the Pipedream SDK
+
+```javascript
+const pd = createBackendClient({
+  apiHost: process.env.API_HOST,
+  credentials: {
+    clientId: process.env.CLIENT_ID,
+    clientSecret: process.env.CLIENT_SECRET,
+  },
+  environment: process.env.ENVIRONMENT,
+  projectId: process.env.PROJECT_ID,
+});
+
+const pdGoogleAdsUrl = "https://googleads.m.pipedream.net";
+
+const resp = await pd.makeProxyRequest(
+  {
+    searchParams: {
+      external_user_id: process.env.EXTERNAL_USER_ID,
+      account_id: process.env.ACCOUNT_ID,
+    },
+  },
+  {
+    url: pdGoogleAdsUrl,
+    options: {
+      method: "POST",
+      body: {
+        url: "/v19/customers:listAccessibleCustomers",
+        method: "GET",
+        // data: {} // If you need to send a body with a POST request, define it here
+      },
+    },
+  }
+);
+```
+
+### Using the Connect REST API
+
+```bash
+# First, obtain an OAuth access token to authenticate to the Pipedream API
+
+curl -X POST https://api.pipedream.com/v1/oauth/token \
+  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
+  -d '{
+    "grant_type": "client_credentials",
+    "client_id": "{your_oauth_client_id}",
+    "client_secret": "{your_oauth_client_secret}"
+  }'
+
+# The response will include an access_token. Use it in the Authorization header below.
+
+# Base64 encode the Pipedream endpoint for Google Ads: https://googleads.m.pipedream.net
+
+curl -X POST "https://api.pipedream.com/v1/connect/{your_project_id}/proxy/{url_safe_base64_encoded_url}?external_user_id={external_user_id}&account_id={apn_xxxxxxx}" \
+  -H "Authorization: Bearer {access_token}" \
+  -H "x-pd-environment: {development | production}" \
+  -d '{
+    "url": "/v19/customers:listAccessibleCustomers",
+    "method": "GET",
+    # "data": {} # If you need to send a body with a POST request, define it here
+  }'
+
+# Parse and return the data you need
+```
