Delete a sent message for everyone
If the operation is accepted, history marks the message as deleted.
Before you start
- Your identified, undeleted message on a QR-based WhatsApp connection.
Step by step
Open the menu of a message you sent.
Choose Delete for everyone and review the confirmation.
Confirm to request deletion, or cancel to keep the message.
Check history to see whether the message is marked as deleted.
Check your result
If the operation is accepted, history marks the message as deleted.
What you need to know
- The reviewed flow uses the QR-based WhatsApp client. These endpoints do not provide equivalent handling for the official API, Instagram or Facebook.
- The action is Delete for everyone, not Delete for me. The result depends on WhatsApp accepting the request.
