Connector Improvement: Add limiting date option to Google Calendar connector
CompletedI love the org-wide Google Calendar connector, but my org is almost 15 years old and since change data capture isn't possible the full syncs are insanely large and there's no good reason for it. I don't mind having 15 years of data, but there's no reason for every sync to go back that far.
Please add either an absolute or relative date setting under the connector's setup so I can limit this. It would be fine if this became an absolute limit on how far back data goes, but ideally you could do an initial full sync of the complete history and then have subsequent syncs to only going back e.g. one year or a couple months. Past events are rarely changing and it's not that important to capture any changes that do happen after events are long passed
