Overview

Slackdump is a comprehensive tool for archiving private and public Slack messages, threads, files, and users. It offers both command-line functionality and an MCP server implementation. The MCP server provides read-only access to archived Slack data through various tools like load_source, list_channels, get_messages, get_thread, and more. It supports both stdio and HTTP transports, making it compatible with multiple AI agents and development environments.

After installing, here are 5 things you can ask your AI assistant:

you:Can I get data older than 90-days from a free Slack workspace?

Choose this when you need to analyze Slack archives without admin privileges and want to use AI tools for content analysis.

When NOT to choose this

FAQ

Do I need to create a Slack application to use Slackdump?
No, you don't. Just run the application and EZ-Login 3000 will take care of the authentication, or grab the token and cookie from your browser Slack session.
Can I get data older than 90-days from a free Slack workspace?
No, unfortunately you can't. Slack doesn't allow exporting data older than 90 days for free workspaces.
