How to restore Slack threads using the SysCloud backup application?

Follow the steps below to restore conversation threads in Slack from SysCloud application.

A message thread feature allows you to reply to or create organized discussions around any Slack channel message or direct messages. 
Due to Slack’s architecture, a thread cannot exist without its channel. If the channel has been deleted, SysCloud will create a channel with the same name and restore the thread.

Step 1: Login to SysCloud application using your admin credentials. 

Step 2: Click on “Archives” and select Slack from the Side Navigation Panel. 

Step 3: Select your workspace from the list.  

Step 4: Select the channel which contains the conversation thread. 

Slack files shared in conversations are available under the Workspace Files tab, where you can search, view, and restore supported files from the backup archive.
To view a file and its contents, click on the file name.

Step 5: Select the thread(s) to restore the data by clicking the checkbox next to it and click “Restore.” 

Note: Click on the thread to view its contents.  

Step 6: Select the snapshot date and time and select whether to overwrite the threads. 

Note: If selected, all the threads available in the selected channels will be overwritten with the version available in the snapshot. If not selected, the threads will be restored as new threads. 

Step 7: Add comments to be shown in the restore report (optional) and click on “Restore” to confirm the restore.  

The restore status can be seen in Restore report under Reports tab.
