With a large number of users, large amounts of data on Google servers may be inactive, accessible with a variety of services, but generally not easily downloadable. Moving his data or whoever accompanies it To the waterfall I want to protect, this can be done on stage Google Takeout Create. It was created a few years ago as a focal point for downloading a lot of data from personal products and, with some restrictions, is very convenient to use.

Google Takeout Provides the opportunity to select all the saved data from the listed Google products and download them in various formats. The number of products will vary depending on the area and size of your application, I currently offer 58 products. All products are selected by default, but even with moderate use it can be a crazy data. It is advisable to use the button above to first deselect them all and then select only the products you actually want to save. My recommendation: Back up each product individually and you will be grateful for it if you really need it.

For many products, the design may be specified or a restriction may be imposed on the purpose of the data to be exported. Once you have made a selection and specified options (quality is often advised), click “Next Step” and select the appropriate archive format for which you want to retrieve the data You can choose between * .zip or * .tgz with a maximum size of your choice for individual archives ranging from 2GB to 50GB.

If you cannot save the data yourself, you can upload it directly to OneDrive, Box, DropBox or Google Drive. However, in most cases, I do not need Google Drive.

Once the archive is created, you have seven days to download it – after which it will be automatically deleted. You can use the data as a backup, process it yourself, or upload it to other cloud services. However, keep in mind that this archive may contain tons of personal data about you – so keep it safe, do not upload it “anywhere” and do not leave it unprotected in physical form on storage media.


Give it a try, it’s all self-explanatory and very simple. I don’t know about any limits, so create as many archives as you need.
