Slack holds the day-to-day record of how your company works: decisions, escalations, and handoffs across channels, threads, and DMs. Erathos is preparing native support for syncing Slack conversations, messages, thread replies, reactions, users, user groups, and file metadata into Azure Synapse over the Slack Web API, with the same table-level control applied to every Erathos pipeline.

Once available, workspace data will land in Synapse alongside the rest of your Microsoft analytics stack, ready for Power BI dashboards and Azure Data Factory workflows, with incremental synchronization on message and file streams and full observability of every run. Azure Synapse support for Slack is not yet available; this page will be updated when it ships.

## Data in your data warehouse in minutes

### Out-of-the-box Slack connector

Connect Slack to Azure Synapse in minutes with our native connector when support ships. Conversations, messages, thread replies, reactions, users, user groups, and file metadata will sync automatically, with no code required.

### Complete control over your Slack pipelines

Configure sync frequency and sync type per table. Data will arrive in Synapse ready for your Microsoft analytics stack, from Power BI dashboards to Azure Data Factory workflows, without data duplication.

### End-to-end observability

Stop finding out about pipeline failures only when the business team complains. Every run is logged with its run time, rows processed, and error context. Get automatic alerts via Slack, Discord, or email the moment something goes wrong.

## Centralizing Slack data into Azure Synapse has never been easier

Erathos is a data ingestion platform built for teams that demand reliability, visibility, and control. With our Slack connector, you will be able to automatically move channels, messages, threads, reactions, users, and file metadata into Azure Synapse, featuring complete observability for every run and zero maintenance.

## FAQ

### What is Erathos and how can it help my company?

Erathos is a data ingestion platform built for reliability, transparency, and control. We help data teams connect their SaaS tools, such as Slack, to their data warehouse, without the maintenance cost of in-house pipelines or the opacity of traditional ETL tools. Our customers reduce pipeline maintenance by up to 80%.

### What Slack data does Erathos sync to Azure Synapse?

Erathos syncs conversations, including public and private channels, group DMs, and DMs, along with messages, thread replies, reactions, bookmarks, pins, users and presence data, user groups and their members, file and file comment metadata, emoji, reminders, scheduled messages, and team data such as access and integration logs. The scopes you grant to your Slack bot token determine which endpoints and conversations are available.

### How often will Erathos synchronize Slack data to Azure Synapse?

Once the destination is available, you will be able to configure sync frequency at the table level, from every 5 minutes up to once per day. Message and file streams will use incremental synchronization with a cursor, so each run processes only records newer than the last sync, while other Slack tables run as full refresh.

### What happens if a synchronization fails?

Erathos automatically detects failures and sends alerts to your email, Slack, or Discord with full execution context, not just 'job failed.' Smart retries handle transient errors, and every run is logged so your team can debug in minutes, not hours.

### Is there a free trial period for the Slack connector?

Yes. Every Erathos connector includes a 14-day free trial. Once Slack support for Azure Synapse is released, you will be able to connect and start syncing immediately, no credit card required.
