post/users/@me/messages/bulk-delete-mine

Delete my messages with optional filters

Immediately deletes messages the caller has authored, subject to optional date-range and per-context filters (DMs, group DMs, guilds, with optional guild exclusions; or an inaccessible-only mode for contexts the caller is no longer a member of). Requires sudo mode verification. The deletion runs asynchronously; the caller receives a system DM with totals when it completes.
