How to get the last message of a user?

Question

In contact with

Is there a way to get the user's last message in a conversation? I want to make a delete command, but I don't know how to determine the id of the messages that need to be deleted. I use the VK API and the vk-io library (3.2.0, because I can't get the new one to work -_-). I have my own token, I have access.

Answer 1

As far as I know, it is impossible to get the last message of the user, as an option to store somewhere the ID of the last message with the date.

Answer 2

Using the method messages.getHistory, you can get a list of messages in a chat/dialog, and if specified count=1, you can get the last message.
