Proofpoint Content Capture for Collaboration (Slack) is a Slack approved solution for capturing, classifying and archiving activity within a Slack Enterprise Grid environment.

It provides a simple install URL that the Primary Org Owner or an Org Owner uses to enable the export of Slack messages. Once activated, Content Capture for Collaboration (Slack) uses Slack Discovery APIs to retrieve message activity from Slack regularly. Content Capture classifies each message based on its content, transforms the message into email form, including the classification results, and sends it to a designated mailbox for delivery to your enterprise email archive.
