# Delete a chat message

Have you ever accidentally sent a message to the wrong person or team or sent something and then changed your mind?

We give you the flexibility to delete messages that you no longer want to share.

* Hover your mouse to the left of the message you have sent and you'll see three dots appear.
* Click on the three dots.
* Select 'Delete message'.
* A pop-up window will appear asking you to confirm that you want to delete the message. Click on confirm to delete the message, or cancel to keep the message.

All members of the channel will be able to see when something has been deleted as it will show *('You/Name of the person' deleted this message)* in place of where the message had been.

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## 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.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.intheloop.io/teams/delete-a-chat-message.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
