invalid_arguments response when deleting messages #86

Open budikpet opened 4 years ago

Problem:

Channel messages are not being deleted when the script is performed. Results in _invalidarguments error.

Solution:

Slack chat.delete usually requires argument _asuser=True.

I fixed this by adding --as_user at the end of the command.
