How to archive a Slack Channel to Confluence?

Question

Sometimes for a specific problem , a slack channel is created. Solutions are discussed and decision might be made based on Slack conversations. Is there a way to archive Slack channel to a Confluence page?

Confluence Server Version:  Confluence 6.6.13

@Swetang S arriving a bit late here, but my app The Arqivist can at least store full message threads as a confluence page: Short link
If there's a feature missing don't hesitate in reaching out :)

Thank you @Peter DeWitt

I will check on what you suggested and try. My intention is to save a channel to Confluence to serve as decision log for future reference.

@Swetang S , I'm not aware of anything automatic. Most of the apps I have seen do thing like notify your Slack Channel when changes are made or comments are added.

I do know that depending on what plan you are on in Slack, you have a variety of options to export Channels. If I remember right you can do HTML or JSON. You could then work our a way to import / display the exports in confluence. There are a number of Apps in the marketplace that allow you to view JSON formatted documents.

hope this helps a little bit.
