Right now it pulls the daily reach which isn’t unique reach over a longer period of time. Do you also plan on an updated LinkedIn connector? Thanks again for some great work.

I'm glad you find it valuable! :)
The reach metric is aggregated by server-side by the FB API and calculated by counting internal distinct users id's.
This makes it hard to "reverse-engineer" and the only thing that would be possible is to have pre-determined time ranges. The connector was initially build to get the low granularity. But the reach is one of the metrics that really doesn't comply well with this approach.
