# Discord DM Deletion Script

This script allows you to delete all your direct messages (DMs) on Discord using data retrieved through a data request to Discord. It fetches the IDs of your sent messages and deletes them automatically.

6. Discord will send you a download link via email once your data is ready. This may take several days.

Once you receive and download your data, you will find a file containing all the messages you have sent, including their IDs. This file will be used by the script to delete your messages.
