How to delete other people's messages as an admin

Disponible en inglés

Admin mode deletes messages other people posted, in the Discord servers and Slack workspaces where you have the rights to. It works in channels only, never in DMs.

1. 01

   Choose Delete from Discord as admin

   Tap your account on Main. On the How should we delete? sheet, pick Delete from Discord as admin (on Slack, Delete from Slack as admin) instead of the first option.

   En la app Main → Discord → account → Delete from Discord as admin

   
2. 02

   Pick the channels

   On Discord the list shows only servers you own or where you have the Administrator or Manage Messages permission: tap one and tick its channels, or Select all. On Slack it shows the workspace’s channels, and only to a workspace admin: for anyone else it stays empty. Then tap Continue.

   En la app Delete from Discord as admin → server → channels → Continue

3. 03

   Choose whose messages go

   Select User to Delete opens. Turn on Delete All to delete everyone’s messages in those channels, or tick members in the list: ticking one turns Delete All off. On Discord, Add User by ID reaches someone who isn’t in the list: type their ID in Enter User ID and tap Add; the i next to it opens a web page that explains how to find a user ID. Then tap Continue.

   En la app Select User to Delete

   
4. 04

   Narrow it with a date range or keywords, then tap Delete

   The options screen has the same date range and keyword filters as a normal run, and they apply here too. On Discord, the What to delete choice on that screen doesn’t change an admin run: it always goes through every message in the channels you picked, their threads included, and it also removes your own reactions from those messages. On Slack, Delete Messages, Delete Threads and Delete Reactions do apply.

   En la app Continue → Delete
