I’ve discovered a tool that can be pretty helpful for data-based #forensics, as well as general data-mining of #Slack data. Slackdump is a GitHub project releasing a command-line tool for many operating systems that can be used to download Slack channel content.

This tool can be great for preserving data as a part of a forensics and eDiscovery workflow, and it can also be used in conjunction with some other tools to datamine the rich source of information that is a corporate Slack channel, especially those that are aimed at supporting a service, product, or people.

Check out my Slackdump tool documentation for more info and usage.
