Too bad Signal API does not bring unencrypted messages. I was also surprised to discover that when you link new devices, you lose history. In general, I ruined a month of text message history, which got into Signal with not way to bring it back (I am referring to the unencrypted text messages).

I am pertty sure signal backs up SMS messages and if you enable backups, it looks like you might be able to extract them with this: https://github.com/xeals/signal-back/blob/master/README.md

Not great for the non tech-savvy, but I don’t know of any SMS backup strategy that is
