Hi Jens, To lookup a location via API, you will have to use the LocationCriterionService <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201710/LocationCriterionService>. As you said, you'll not be able to retrieve Proximity <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201710/CampaignCriterionService.Proximity> or Location groups <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201710/CampaignCriterionService.LocationGroups.html> criterion through LocationCriterionService since these are custom locations. If the proximity criterion is added on a campaign, you could use CampaignCriterionService <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/reference/v201710/CampaignCriterionService> to retrieve these location-based criteria. The GetCampaignTargetingCriteria <https://github.com/googleads/googleads-java-lib/blob/master/examples/adwords_axis/src/main/java/adwords/axis/v201710/targeting/GetCampaignTargetingCriteria.java> Java example shows how to retrieve campaign criteria. Example code in other languages are available here <https://developers.google.com/adwords/api/docs/clientlibraries>.
Since you are trying to convert a geo point to a location, you could also explore the option of using Google Maps API <https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geocoding/intro> and perform a reverse geocoding <https://developers.google.com/maps/documentation/geocoding/intro#ReverseGeocoding>. Once you know the location, you could use the proximity criterion.
