Metric Builder for SQL and Google Sheets: automatically purge data with each sync


Avatar

In some use cases, users have the Custom Metric's Data Type set to 'Event Values' with 'Store all data' to Databox option selected, because they have multiple entries with the same Timestamp and need to sync all the data with Databox.
Further, sometimes they change values in the original Data Source, the values that have already been synced with Databox. After that, they have both (old and new) values stored in Databox, where the old one should be purged.

The current solution for such use cases is purging data for the affected Custom Metric(s).
But once this is needed on multiple metrics multiple times (e.g. on a daily or weekly basis), due to multiple people logging data in the Data Source, this is not practical and can be time-consuming.

Suggested improvement is:
1. Automatically purge Data Source's data with each sync
2. Users could have the option (e.g. a checkbox) to purge data with each sync, on a metric basis.

This is needed so we can use this as a tool in our business.

Allow a scheduled or automatic purge option for Salesforce Custom Metrics.
