Zoom Chat offers similar APIs, webhooks, and developer tools as Slack, including [incoming webhooks](https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0067640), a [Chatbot card designer](https://zoom.us/account/chatAppcardBuilderKit), and an extensive [API library and webhook server](/docs/rivet/).

## Migration steps

This migration guide covers migrating your existing Slackbot or Slack integration to Zoom Chat.

1. [Migrate your Slack data](https://support.zoom.com/hc/en/article?id=zm_kb&sysparm_article=KB0058132) (like users, channels, and messages) to Zoom Chat.
1. [Get your developer credentials](/docs/chat/create/) and [authorize your application](/docs/chat/installation-and-authentication/).
1. Update your [token workflows](/docs/chat/chatbot/extend/bot-cards/).
1. Update your Slack block formatting to use [Zoom Chat message cards](/docs/chat/chatbot/extend/bot-cards/).
1. Update your [Chatbot APIs](/docs/chat/chatbot/extend/send-a-message/) for things like Sending, editing, and deleting Chatbot messages.
1. Update your [Chatbot webhook server](/docs/chat/chatbot/extend/slash-commands-in-Zoom/) for things like Slash commands and UI Elements, or for [Incoming Webhooks](/docs/chat/chatbot/extend/send-a-message/#send-message-via-incoming-webhooks) messages from other applications.
1. Update any additional Slack APIs or webhooks you are using to the [Zoom equivalent](/docs/chat/chatbot/extend/slack-zoom-API-comparisons/).
1. If you want your app to be available to users outside your company or personal Zoom account, [publish](/docs/distribute/) it to the [Zoom App Marketplace](https://marketplace.zoom.us/).
