## Delete a message

`messages.delete(strmessage_id, MessageDeleteParams**kwargs)`

**delete** `/v1/chats/{chatID}/messages/{messageID}`

Delete a message by final message ID. Pending message IDs are not accepted because messages cannot be deleted while sending.

### Parameters

- `chat_id: str`

  Chat ID. Input routes also accept the local chat ID from this Beeper Desktop installation when available.

- `message_id: str`

  Message ID.

- `for_everyone: Optional[bool]`

  True to request deletion for everyone when the network supports it; false to delete only for the authenticated user when supported.

### Example

```python
import os
from beeper_desktop_api import BeeperDesktop

client = BeeperDesktop(
    access_token=os.environ.get("BEEPER_ACCESS_TOKEN"),  # This is the default and can be omitted
)
client.messages.delete(
    message_id="1343993",
    chat_id="!NCdzlIaMjZUmvmvyHU:beeper.com",
)
```
