## Delete a message from system

`client.messages.delete(stringmessageID, RequestOptionsoptions?): void`

**delete** `/v3/messages/{messageId}`

Deletes a message from the Linq API only. This does NOT unsend or remove the message
from the actual chat — recipients will still see the message.

### Parameters

- `messageID: string`

### Example

```typescript
import LinqAPIV3 from '@linqapp/sdk';

const client = new LinqAPIV3({
  apiKey: process.env['LINQ_API_V3_API_KEY'], // This is the default and can be omitted
});

await client.messages.delete('69a37c7d-af4f-4b5e-af42-e28e98ce873a');
```

#### Response

```json
{
  "error": {
    "status": 400,
    "code": 1002,
    "message": "Phone number must be in E.164 format",
    "doc_url": "https://docs.linqapp.com/error/codes/1xxx/1002/"
  },
  "success": false
}
```
