I want to export all the user data from Amplitude, especially the IDs, like the Amplitude ID, Merged ID and the userID. But the only way I found is to use the user search API. But this API has a very small hour;y rate limitation. Is there any other way to do this?
I noticed that we could also export to Snowflake or GCS, but in the document, it mentioned that
Export events ingested today and moving forward, Export all merged Amplitude IDs, or export both.
Does this mean that it only gonna export the data starting from the day that I set up the connection, or all the historical data will be exported as well?

Thanks @dangrainger! @dddt118 welcome! Here’s more on exporting historical data to GCS. At the moment, the GCS destination we've built out allows for exporting events ingested today and moving forward. Once this is set up, you can set up a manual export of backward looking data later. Here is an example of the interface once you've set up the destination:
Hi @dddt118 - for the Snowflake connection you can definitely do exports of historic data, we’re doing that right now. Not sure about the GCS connection, but I’d be very surprised if it was any different.
