Slack connector details

The Slack capture connector in Estuary captures workspace data from Slack through its APIs and loads each selected resource into an Estuary collection. It supports conversations, messages, users, files, threads, and related workspace data for downstream analytics, search, archiving, and other data workflows.

  • API-based data capture from Slack
  • Supports Channels (Conversations) and Channel Members
  • Captures Messages and Threads
  • Supports Users and User Groups
  • Captures Files and Remote Files
  • Separate Estuary collections for each selected Slack resource
  • Configurable start date to determine how far back Slack data is replicated
  • Configurable thread lookback window for retrieving historical thread messages
  • Option to automatically join available channels
  • Slack workspace or API-token authentication, with OAuth supported in connector configuration

The start date determines the earliest Slack data Estuary will replicate, while the thread lookback window controls how far back the connector searches for messages in conversation threads. Each enabled Slack resource is mapped to a separate Estuary collection by default.

For more details about the Slack connector, check out the documentation page.
