# Find audiences, user lists and interest segments

`POST /api/v1/tools/google_search_audiences/execute`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://adako.ai`
- URL: `https://adako.ai/api/v1/tools/google_search_audiences/execute`
- Auth: HTTP bearer

Finds audiences usable in this account: the account's own audiences and remarketing/customer lists, plus Google's in-market and affinity interest segments when you pass a search term.
Use when: you need an audience id for google_add_audience_signal, or the user asks what audiences exist.
Do not use when: the user means keywords or locations — those are google_research_keywords and google_resolve_locations.
Remarketing lists need a minimum size before they can be used (roughly 1,000 for Search), and the reported size is an estimate. A list that is too small is returned with its size so you can tell the user why it will not work, rather than it silently doing nothing.
This is a resolver: never invent an audience id, always pass one this tool returned.
If you are unsure which account, campaign or period the user means, ask them — do not guess ids or dates.

## Headers

- `Idempotency-Key` string

    - `search` string: Term to match against audience and list names, and against Google in-market/affinity segment names.
    - `include_interest_segments` boolean: Include Google's in-market and affinity segments. Requires a search term; defaults to true when one is given.
    - `limit` integer: Maximum rows per group (default 25).
