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. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.
See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.
Note
To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.
Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .
To delete messages from a specified room
The following delete-message
example sends an even to the specified room, which directs clients to delete the specified message: that is, unrender it from view and delete it from the client’s chat history.
aws ivschat delete-message \
--roomIdentifier "arn:aws:ivschat:us-west-2:12345689012:room/g1H2I3j4k5L6" \
--id "ABC123def456" \
--reason "Message contains profanity"

"id": "12345689012"
}
