PubNub Message Update & Delete Features - NEW
Update Published Messages using the Message Actions feature.
pubnub.addMessageAction(

action: {
type: 'updated',
value: 'Hello World! (edited)',
},
},
function(status, response) {

Delete Messages using the deleteMessages API.
There is a setting to accept delete from history requests for a key, which you must enable by checking the Enable Delete-From-History checkbox in the key settings for your key in the Admin Portal.
Requires Initialization with the secret key.
pubnub.deleteMessages(
{
channels: 'chats.room1',

end: "15526611838554310",
},
function (status, response) {
console.log(status, response);
