can connecting ipad to laptop (windows) through cable damage the ipad's battery health?

i wanted to try to use my ipad as a secondary screen for my laptop for a long period of time (for drawing) but i notice while im connecting it to the laptop my ipad would charge. i was wondering if i connect it for a long period of time constantly would make the ipad battery health get bad? since its constantly charging from my laptop. i heard using your ipad while charging constantly is bad so im a bit worried.

iPad Pro, iPadOS 17

Your iPad will suffer no harm in being connected to external power for extended periods - whether in use or not. This usage model is common in Point of Sale and Kiosk applications. The iPad will optimally charge your iPad battery, automatically modifying its charging strategy as appropriate.
