Can I import Archbee content directly into Slack Canvas?
No. There is no native import, plugin, or middleware. Archbee stores content in a proprietary JSON block format, and Slack Canvas accepts only Markdown via its API. You must build a custom converter or use a bulk Markdown export as an intermediate step.
What Archbee features are lost when migrating to Slack Canvas?
Variables (render-time substitution), OpenAPI/Swagger interactive reference pages, the documentation widget, changelog entries, expandable headings, Mermaid diagrams, iframe embeds, version history, the publish workflow, page analytics, and SEO controls are all lost. Canvas has no equivalent for any of these.
What are the Slack Canvas API rate limits for bulk migration?
canvases.create is Tier 2 (20+ requests per minute) and canvases.edit is Tier 3 (50+ per minute). An undocumented constraint limits canvases.edit to one change per request. At Tier 2 rates, creating 200 canvases takes at least 10 minutes. Always respect the Retry-After header on 429 responses.
How do Archbee spaces map to Slack channels and canvases?
Slack Canvas has no folder hierarchy. The practical approach is one Slack channel per Archbee space, a channel canvas as the index/table of contents, and one standalone canvas per document. Nested document trees are flattened. Standalone canvases require a paid Slack plan.
Does Slack Canvas support Block Kit or HTML content?
No. Canvas content must be standard Markdown — not mrkdwn, not Block Kit, not HTML. Supported elements include h1–h3 headings, bold, italic, strikethrough, lists, checklists, code blocks, quotes, callouts, dividers, links, tables (300-cell max), and mentions. Content is capped at 1 MiB per API call.

How do I validate that everything migrated correctly?

Do I need professional help for this migration?
