If you have graduated and will no longer be attending a
YRDSB school, your GAPPS account will soon expire. When your GAPPS
account expires, any data (e.g. work, assignments, documents, slide decks,
sheets, etc.) that you have in the account will be deleted.
To save your data (e.g. work, assignments, documents, slide
decks, sheets, etc.), please follow these steps as soon as possible.
1. Visit
Google Takeout (https://takeout.google.com/settings/takeout)
and login with your YRDSB Google Account.
2. Select
the Google Apps and Services you want to export your data and documents from,
and select the option to receive the file as a download via email (depending on
the size of your Google account, this could take several hours). Use the
.zip file option.
3. Once
the Google Takeout email arrives, use the links to download your archived data
and documents to the personal computer, USB/external drive and/or the personal
Google Drive that you wish.
4. You
can "unzip" the archives and then upload the data and documents to a
new personal Google Account or use the files and documents in Microsoft Office
or other applications.
Need more help? Support resources from Google are available
on how
to download your Google data.
Please follow these steps as soon as possible so that you do
not lose any data before your GAPPS account expires.
Thank you.
