# Delete Messages **Introduction** This step allows for the bulk deletion of messages from a channel within a guild. **Description** Executes a mass removal of messages sent within the past two weeks. Messages older than two weeks will be ignored. A list of messages for deletion can be gathered using the "Get Message History" step. **Configuration** * **Messages**: Input a list of messages to be deleted. You need to include at least 1 message, with a maximum of 500 messages. **Usage** Effective for cleaning up channels by removing multiple messages simultaneously, particularly useful for moderating large volumes of messages or clearing channels after specific events or discussions. **Permissions** * Requires the "Manage Messages" permission to perform bulk message deletions. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
