Calculation Ignoring Backfill to Date
I'm trying to delete all existing calculations, and backfill only to 5/1 but every time the calculations start backfilling from available data range 3/6

These two have always confused me. I had a conversation with Steve that might help (https://helpcenter.canarylabs.com/t/y4yzc07/backfill-to-vs-remove-old-data). One comment he maid seems to imply Remove From supersedes Backfill To, which explains what you're seeing.
You want to delete all data in the tag, and then only backfill data starting at 5/1?
What version of Canary are you on? 25.2 introduces an API call to delete data. You could delete all data and then set Remove From to 5/1.
Or you can edit the calc to have no output, set Remove From to the date you want to remove data (which should clear data), then set the calc back and rerun it with Remove From set to 5/1.
