I am a total Zapier noob.  I want to save my Slack channel (I have dozens) messages for a previous month.  Can I do this automatically using Zapier?  

I am a fashion designer, not a tech person, so I would really appreciate very elementary answers!

Hi @jill knits 

Good question.

Where are you trying to save the Slack Channel Messages?

Thank you @Troy Tessalone.  It is probably because I was using save, not Export, that I couldn’t find anything.  I was just going to save them to Dropbox.

Okay, next question.  How do I create an automation to do it?  Or, is it possible.

If you have a Slack Workspace on the Business+ paid plan...

Ah.  Sadly, I can’t afford it.
