When my user first authenticates onto our app, we would like to retrieve the user's entire history of events, is this possible and what is the best approach for this?

Yes, Terra does support historical backfills. To perform this, you would need to make a http request to our REST api (to the endopoint for the data type you wish to retrieve), for example:
This will request and send the data to your webhook in chunks This method requires a webhook (or other destination) to be configured as the response may be too big for a HTTP request. Whilst this is feasible, it is not advised practice as this will slow down delivery of events to your webhook. Some providers do not allow historical backfill past a certain point (Polar, Garmin, Samsung) and other have strict ratelimits which will result in a longer period before the request is fulfilled.
