Does Zap send old Google Contacts to Google Ads?

Best answer by Troy Tessalone
Zaps work while turned ON for new data going forward that matches the trigger step event and conditions.
Zap trigger: GContacts - New Contact
Checks for new Contacts every 2 minutes.
Existing Contacts will not trigger the Zap.

Hi
Depends on how your Zap steps are configured.
Post screenshots showing how your Zap steps are outlined and configured in EDIT mode with the field mappings visible.

Use this Zap trigger: GContacts - New or Updated Contact
You would then need to update existing GContacts to get the Zap to trigger.

Hi
At the moment, Zaps are only built to look at new and incoming information, and won't process existing data. You can read a bit more about this here: https://zapier.com/help/create/basics/why-isnt-my-zap-triggering-on-existing-records
This means that data created before the Zap is turned on won't be pulled in automatically.
That said, if you're able to export that data as a spreadsheet or CSV file, you may be able to "import" them using a separate Zap. This guide has some great visual references for getting that workaround set up:

Hopefully, this helps.
