ViewExport is a cloud-based viewer for Slack JSON export files. It converts technical data exports into a format that allows users to search for specific keywords, users, or date ranges without requiring engineering resources to parse the raw files.
The tool is designed for legal, HR, and IT teams conducting eDiscovery, responding to Data Subject Access Requests (DSARs), or managing internal audits. Because it operates on exported files, it supports the examination of private channels and direct messages without triggering notifications to users in those channels.
Buyers should note that the tool relies on the data provided in the Slack export .ZIP file; it cannot retrieve data that was not included in the original export. Features such as chain of custody reporting and AI-powered semantic search are available on the Enterprise plan.
