Delete all messages from a user in a group chat

OpenIM React Native SDK guide for delete all messages from a user in a group chat.

Use deleteUserAllMessagesInConv() to delete all messages from a specified user in a group conversation.

await OpenIMSDK.deleteUserAllMessagesInConv({
  conversationID,
  userID,
});

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Required	Description
`conversationID`	`string`	Yes	Target group conversation ID.
`userID`	`string`	Yes	User whose messages are deleted.

This is a group-management operation. After it completes, the deletion request has completed; the server validates permissions.

Listen for deletion of a user's messages

After deletion, OnDeleteUserAllMsgsInConv is emitted with conversationID and userID. Use them to remove that user's messages from the target conversation.

function handleUserMessagesDeleted(data) {
  // ...
}

// Set the listener
OpenIMSDK.on(
  OpenIMEvent.OnDeleteUserAllMsgsInConv,
  handleUserMessagesDeleted,
);

// Remove the listener
OpenIMSDK.off(
  OpenIMEvent.OnDeleteUserAllMsgsInConv,
  handleUserMessagesDeleted,
);

Remove the listener when the component is destroyed, the account signs out, or the account changes.
