Sends an event to a specific room which directs clients to delete a specific message; that is, unrender it from view and delete it from the client’s chat history. This event’s EventName
is aws:DELETE_MESSAGE
. This replicates the DeleteMessage WebSocket operation in the Amazon IVS Chat Messaging API.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.
delete-message
--id <value>
[--reason <value>]
--room-identifier <value>
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]
--id
(string)
ID of the message to be deleted. This is the
Id
field in the received message (see Message (Subscribe) in the Chat Messaging API).
--reason
(string)
Reason for deleting the message.
--room-identifier
(string)
Identifier of the room where the message should be deleted. Currently this must be an ARN.
--cli-input-json
| --cli-input-yaml
(string)
Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton
. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml
.
--generate-cli-skeleton
(string)
Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input
, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json
. Similarly, if provided yaml-input
it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml
. If provided with the value output
, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.
See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

aws ivschat delete-message \
--roomIdentifier "arn:aws:ivschat:us-west-2:12345689012:room/g1H2I3j4k5L6" \
--id "ABC123def456" \
--reason "Message contains profanity"

"id": "12345689012"
}
