The MyFitnessPal documentation says you can query historic data using start and end dates, I imagine there are limitations though, it doesn't say how many rows you can return, or if there is a limit to how far back in time you can query.
Thank you!

Hi there!
When making historical data requests through Terra's API, you use start_date (required) and end_date (optional) parameters. For requests spanning longer time ranges (over 28 days), Terra handles them as "large requests".
For large requests, Terra will:
- Send you a "Large request processing" event immediately
- Organize the data into chunks
- Send a "Large request sending" payload indicating the number of payloads to expect
Some providers do have specific time range limits, I've listed them here:
- Garmin: 5 years into the past
- Polar: 30 days into the past, but not prior to user authentication
- Coros: 3 months into the past, or 24 hours prior to authentication (whichever limit is hit first)
- Health Connect: 30 days into the past, but not prior to user authentication
