With the chat integration you do have the ability to post transcripts from Slack to Discourse, but it’s a manual slash command… it _might_ be possible to automate that command with a bot on Slack’s end?

> [@Discourse Chat Integrations](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-chat-integrations/66522/1):
>
> If your provider supports transcript posting, you can post your instant messaging history to discourse. This is currently only supported for the Slack provider. Note: You will need to be using the “Access Token” method of connecting to Slack.
> 
> Send `/discourse post` to see the interface. The plugin will try and “guess” where your current conversation starts, by looking for a gap in the message history of more than 3 minutes.
> 
> Alternatively, you can specify a number of posts after the command, or a URL to the first message.
