What’s changing
Beginning November 15, 2022, admins can manage Takeout settings from a new consolidated controls page, located at Admin console > Account > Google Takeout > User access to Takeout for Google services. We anticipate the new page to be fully rolled out within the next few weeks. Once the new page is fully available, the previous Takeout settings page—located at Admin Console > Apps > Additional Google Services > Google Takeout—will no longer be available.
Once the rollout is complete, admins can modify Takeout settings from the new consolidated controls page, as well as from additional service setting pages for services with an individual Takeout control (see here for a list of those services: Allow or block Google Takeout for users).

Why it matters
Admins can now specify which services users are allowed or not allowed to export data from via Google Takeout all from one place in the Admin Console.
