Anyone has a python script to extract email addresses from gmail? (in bulk)

I really need such thing since softwares are expensive and I'm needing the service once, If anyone has a script or could make one as an exercise, it would be hugely appreciated

You might want to give a little more detail. Do you mean can an API, or parse a file? Requirements are a little vague.

Idk much about python, someone directed me to this subreddit for help, anything that does the job mentioned in the post is hugely appreciated

The python part is the only thing in the post that is clear. You need to describe the job better. Where is the data, what is the format of the data, how big is the data?

Edit: 'from Gmail' is the most confusing and non specific
