You can't use the APIs at this point to get the historical telemetry data directly from IoT Central (you can get the history for commands and properties only).

The recommend way to implement the scenario you are looking for is to use the continuous data export feature (https://docs.microsoft.com/azure/iot-central/core/howto-export-data) and then depending on where you send the data (Event Hub, Blob, ...) you can use these services API to revtreive the data you need
