Deleting Messages Sent by a Specified User

Feature Overview

This API can be used to recall the messages sent by a specified user among the last 1,000 messages.

API Calling Description

Applicable group types

Group Type ID
RESTful API Support
Private
Yes. Same as work groups (Work) in the new version.
Public
Yes
ChatRoom
Yes. Same as the meeting group (Meeting) in the new version.
AVChatRoom
No
Community

These are the preset group types in Chat. For more information, see Group System.
Note
This API recalls messages that are in historical message storage, but audio-video groups (AVChatRoom) do not support historical message storage. Therefore, this API does not take effect when it is used to recall messages for a user in an audio-video group (but no error will be returned).
This API currently supports silent recall only. A recalled message will be marked as recalled on the server, and the client will not be notified of the recall. The client can know that the message is recalled only when it pulls roaming messages.
