## API proxy

For a Google Vertex AI endpoint with no pre-built tool, the proxy forwards your request with the connected user's credentials attached.

```bash
# The path segment is the target URL, URL-safe base64 encoded:
# https://www.googleapis.com/oauth2/v1/userinfo

curl "https://api.pipedream.com/v1/connect/{project_id}/proxy/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlYXBpcy5jb20vb2F1dGgyL3YxL3VzZXJpbmZv?external_user_id={external_user_id}&account_id=apn_xxxxxxx" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer {access_token}" \
  -H "x-pd-environment: production"
```

## SDK

```ts
import { PipedreamClient } from "@pipedream/sdk"

const pd = new PipedreamClient({
  projectId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_PROJECT_ID!,
  clientId: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_ID!,
  clientSecret: process.env.PIPEDREAM_CLIENT_SECRET!,
  projectEnvironment: "production",
})

const result = await pd.actions.run({
  id: "google_vertex_ai-analyze-image-video",
  externalUserId: "{external_user_id}", // any stable ID for this user in your system
  configuredProps: {
    google_vertex_ai: { authProvisionId: "apn_xxxxxxx" },
