pip install --upgrade google-api-python-client
Requires Google account and password. Creating an app-specific password instead of using the raw password is recommended.
Specify either a package name and signature (SHA-1 hash of the raw signing certificate), or
a packages.xml file (extracted from device).
Device ID is optional, should be either ANDROID_ID or GMS device ID.
When using packages.xml will try to fetch data from all packages (including internal/system ones).
This can be time consuming and run into rate limiting. Use with care. You can use a combination
of --packages-xml and --target-package to target a specific package.
Downloaded files will be saved in the current directory under:
appdata-<account name>-<timestamp>/<package name>/
./get-gdrive-appdata.py --account foo.bar.baz@gmail.com --password foo.bar.baz \
--target-package com.example.app --target-package-sig 0000000000000000000000000000000000000000
