Slackscraper focuses on approved public and private channel sync, governed retrieval, deletion-aware storage, and JSONL exports.
Use the CLI to inspect configuration, install a Slack workspace, backfill channel history, search results, and create exports.
npm run slackscraper -- help npm run slackscraper -- config doctor npm run slackscraper -- workspaces list npm run slackscraper -- search "rollback plan"View API reference →
Discovery and backfill cover approved public and private channels. Signed Slack Events API callbacks handle message create, edit, and delete events.
slackscraper init slackscraper sync --workspace acme slackscraper channels list --workspace acme
Search results are bound to actors, access profile versions, and result handles. Expansion reauthorizes access before returning additional message context.
slackscraper search "incident review" --workspace acme slackscraper expand <result_handle>
Exports currently produce current-state JSONL files with manifest checksums. Destinations include local artifacts and S3-compatible object storage.
