Your legal department has asked you to pull content out of Slack and store it...

The Discovery API is specifically designed for Enterprise security, compliance, archiving, and eDiscovery use cases involving extraction of Slack content into approved third-party systems. Slack explicitly describes eDiscovery applications as pulling messages and files from Slack and storing the information in third-party data warehouses, where that content can subsequently be searched, archived, or retrieved. The Discovery API can provide organization-level message and file information, including historical content that remains available under applicable retention and legal-hold policies. Its use is restricted to approved security and compliance scenarios such as eDiscovery, archiving, and Data Loss Prevention. The Audit Logs API provides administrative and security event records rather than the actual body of message and file content needed for an external archive. Admin APIs manage Enterprise configuration and administrative resources. Legal Holds preserve relevant Slack data from deletion or retention-policy expiration but are not themselves the general extraction mechanism described in the scenario. Therefore, D directly matches the legal department's requirement to transfer Slack content into a third-party data warehouse. This question belongs to APIs for Managing Your Slack, specifically Enterprise content governance, eDiscovery, archiving, and Discovery API use cases.
