Community,
I would like to setup a ZAP to retrieve all my Facebook leads, and not just the new ones that come in after I create my ZAP. The download option of Facebook leads itself does not download all the data. If I use that it will not have address info for example.
Can I use ZAP to retrieve all the data currently in FB Leads?
Thank you for your help

Hi
Welcome to the Community! 🎉
At the moment, Zaps are only built to look at new and incoming information, and won't process existing data. You can read a bit more about this here:
https://zapier.com/help/create/basics/why-isnt-my-zap-triggering-on-existing-records
This means that data created before the Zap is turned on won't be pulled in automatically.
That said, if you're able to export that data as a spreadsheet or CSV file, you may be able to "import" them using a separate Zap. This guide has some great visual references for getting that workaround set up: https://zapier.com/help/create/basics/bulk-import-data-into-zaps
Hopefully, this helps!
