How to filter firebase cloud storage with firebase cloud functions and send the data to the client

hello i am creating an app in flutter and using firebase cloud firestore to save data from the app.
The app uses a Calendar plugin to display appointments that the users have stored in cloud firestore, so i want to filter the appointment that the users can see by only showing the appointments of the current month and for that my idea is to use firebase cloud functions
is it possible for when the user opens the app, i could call a function in cloud functions that will filter the documents where the appointments dates is in the range of the current month and show it to the user?
or is there another way to solve this problem

Firebase check for new data on app load

Does firebase have a native way to check if the app has the latest data on the second load?
Here is the app workflow.
When the app loads I get data from firebase and display it to the
user.
Data is also stored locally to be displayed later.
The user closes the app and the reopens it sometime in the future.
How do I check if Firebase had new data and get it only if it has?
What I am doing is that I am storing a TimeStamp on my device and on the database. On each app load I check if the TimeStamp matches.
If it does then I display old local data otherwise make call to get latest.
Is this the correct way?
Basically what I am asking is I want to display locally stored data, but if firebase has new data then I want to get it and display that.

Do I need create tables manually in Google BigQuery to view the raw event data from Firebase?

I had created a android App with Google Firebase supported and linked to the BigQuery yesterday.
Today I've seen the event report on the Firebase Console, but after I clicked the View button in the Event page like the image below
I saw none table in the BigQuery page and got a warning saying the project's table is dismissing.
I wonder if I need do something, like creating some table manually or calling some Firebase or BigQuery APIs in my app. But I've looked up the official document which saying
Once an app is linked to BigQuery, a corresponding dataset will be
created in the associated BigQuery project upon the first daily export
of events. Each day, raw event data for each linked app populates a
new table in the associated dataset.
It seems I need do nothing. So what's the problem here?
After you link your Firebase app to BigQuery, the next day, your events will flow from Firebase to BigQuery and this will automatically create the BigQuery dataset and its first daily table. Keep in mind that if your app is not logging any events, then no events will be sent to BigQuery. And the dataset will not be created until some events have been logged after the linkage.
