How do you write “a quick python script” to export data from a Google account across many products and data types, while dealing with rate limits, API limitations, etc?
In 2024 you can probably just paste the API docs into ChatGPT/llama/Claude and ask, it would probably even write a headless chrome script for you. Rate limits aren't real for individuals downloading individual amounts of things, just shove a laptop into a closet and download a file every minute or something and check on it once a day. This isn't a hard problem to solve.
