This is very useful, thank you! Unfortunately powershell isn't an option due to org constraints (privileges, architecture). Would you be able to provide an example of a restful API call which can achieve the same results (still specifically for push streaming data sets with historic analysis toggled on)? My thoughts are that if it's possible via powershell, then it should be possible via curl or python requests. 

 

This seems to be a popular request amongs other users, in youtube video comments on the matter, and other threads. I would appreciate any help - it seems that users have been after this functionality for at least a few years. Thanks again.
