My coworker and I both tried this yesterday, and today we both received an email with this error message: "Sorry, we encountered a problem when creating your Google data archive."

Took out my Google data a few times, now amounting 1.4GB never had this issue. Let's hope it's only a temporary slipup.

btw, the data is pretty exhaustive, even for non major Google applications or more recently added features (Maps Location History).

Me too. They must have had a surge of takeouts given the recent lock-outs.
