As of March 25, 2021 Google Takeout has been disabled for staff. For assistance in moving personal data from district Google Drive contact the Help Desk. Staff are responsible for ensuring no files they take with them contain personal student or district specific institutional data. If you aren't sure, work with a building tech to help export only curriculum focused data.
Seniors can use Google Takeout and Google Transfer to export their Drive content before graduating. Watch the video or view the step-by-step guides below.
Google Transfer: Transfer files to another account
Google Transfer is a great option if you have a personal Google account already. You can also create a new one very quickly. Google Transfer allows you to transfer the ownership of all your files to another Google account very quickly and easily.
Step 1: Go to https://takeout.google.com/transfer and ensure you are signed in with your @shakopeeschools.org account.
Step 2: Enter the personal Google account email address you want to transfer your files to. This will send a verification code to that email address.
Step 3: In another tab, open Gmail for your personal Google account. Find the verification code and copy it. Paste it into the Transfer page.
Step 4: Select the content you want to transfer to your other account and then click on "Start Transfer." You should receive an email when this process has been completed and see the files in your My Drive of your personal Google account when the transfer is completed.
Google Takeout: Download all your files
Google Takeout is a tool that allows you to download all of your Google-related files and data all at once. It will send you an email with a link to download your files as a .zip file. It is recommended that you save that file to a flash drive, in a personal Google account, or directly on to a computer that you will continue to have access to after you leave Shakopee Schools.
Step 1: Go to takeout.google.com and ensure you are signed into your @shakopeeschools.org Google account.
Step 2: Selected the Google services that you would like to export the data from. Because there are 63 possible services, it is recommended that you click on "Deselect all" and then only export the services (like Google Drive) that you want. The more services you export, the longer it will take for your export package to be created and downloaded.
Step 3: Scroll to the bottom of the page and click on "Next step."
Step 4: You can transfer your .zip file in a few ways. Select the service you would like to use or use the "send download link via email" option. Export it once, leave the file type as .zip, and keep the file size to under 4 GB. Click on "Create export." 
Step 5: If you selected to have a link emailed to you, click on the email and "Manage Google Takeout request." Select where you would like to download your .zip file to on your computer or flashdrive.
