Good morning.
I have checked the documentation, but I haven't found an answer. I was wondering if, with this tool, it is possibile to acquire data from Google Photo or a specific album from Google Photo.

Looking forward from your answer
Regards

Hello

Since Google Photos isn't a Cloud product, this wouldn't be the right project for that.
You should take a look at Google Takeout.

Thank you :)

Hi.
I meant Google Photos from Google services, so from the cloud, not the app. Since in the readme of cloud-forensics-utils I read " tools to be used by forensics teams to collect evidence from cloud platforms. Currently, Google Cloud Platform", I was wondering in which way i can use cloud-forensics-utils to acquire forensically photos from the Google Cloud.

Regards

Google Photos is a first party Google product and not something that you can enable or interact with through Google Cloud (the Platform - i.e GCP)
