Delete a chat

Chats are deleted from the chat window or directly from a case or document and you can delete any chat you are a participant of.

When a chat is deleted, all chat messages are also deleted from the database. A log of the deletion will be created in the Use Log for future reference.

Retained chats cannot be deleted by any user but can be converted to normal chats, which can then be deleted.

Note: You cannot delete individual messages in the chat.
