The Google Maps timeline doesn't have an API, so while you can see what data Google have there's no way to get it out and make use of it in other ways.

Google Maps Timeline has both an "export this day to KML" feature, and a "download a copy of all you data" feature via Google Takeout.

But it doesn't have an API giving anything between "export a single day" and "give me all the data ever".
