Developer visibility of inventory history

I'm developing a platform for shopify merchants and I need access to the merchant stocks. The only thing is, I want access to the inventory history. So, if someone downloads my platform today, I want to know how much they had in stock in the previous days. I know merchants can look at their own inventory history but I want to have access to it. Is there any way I can do this? And if so, can I get some guidance?

webhook and you can read more about webhooks in general here:


I hope this helps!
