You can redact a conversation part or the source message of a conversation (as seen in the source object).

Which parts and source messages can I redact?

If you are redacting a conversation part, it must have a body.\nIf you are redacting a source message, it must have been created by a contact.\nWe will return a conversation_part_not_redactable error if these criteria are not met.
