The chat messages are not listed in the activity log. Thus, we would need to request https://mbasic.facebook.com/messages and request "See Older Messages" until all selected time ranges are covered. Then the chat delete could be implemented similar to deleting cover or profile pictures.

Any update to this? Looking for something to unsent (by batch) Messenger messages.

I'm not interested in implementing this. It shouldn't be too complicated though.

I'm also a programmer with no interest to implement this. I guess I will just go through each message and delete them one by one for now. Maybe at some point I will get my magic programming skills back. No sarcasm, this just happens for developers sometimes.

Not feasible to delete large messages on group chats one by one, it'll take forever
