Updated the config.sh with details pulled from the slack web interface, however running the ./run.sh all gives null error

sudo ./run.sh all
Loading my own profile..
null
Job manager - start : 5 jobs at a time!
jq: error (at :0): Cannot iterate over null (null)
jq: error (at :0): Cannot iterate over null (null)
jq: error (at :0): Cannot iterate over null (null)
Job manager - finish : All jobs completed!

Also the authentication to Slack happens via SSO, so does this cause any issue?

Is there any good way to convert these files to a nicely human-readable format (e.g., HTML)? The tools used for operating on actual Slack-generated exports don't seem to work.

I love your scripts and unfortunately, it isn't pulling deactivated users' messages. I can see the same messages in the slack desktop and slack browser. All those messages via UI show a message at the bottom "YOU ARE VIEWING THE ARCHIVES OF A DEACTIVATED ACCOUNT"

I will appreciate your effort with a sponsor or donation or direct pay as a thank-you gesture.

I figured that I have more than one cookie, which one shall I use?

Tried deleting the cookie file but can't get it to work.

Is there any easy way to import these backup to another account?

Thanks
