# Startswith ## Usage ``` @Nyaru purge [count] startswith ``` ## Examples * Purge messages containing text `Meowry` *in **start** of the message* in last **10** messages > @Nyaru purge 10 startswith Meowry The above example will fetch last **10** messages in the channel and check if the message content or message text **starts with** your search arguments, i.e., `Meowry`, filter them and then **purges** it. {% hint style="danger" %} **Search arguments are case sensitive!** This means `Meowry` is NOT same as `MEOWRY`. Learn more about case senstivity [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Case_sensitivity). {% endhint %} Take a look at the other example, * Purge **all** messages *starting with* text `Lumi dumbo` > @Nyaru purge startswith Lumi dumbo {% hint style="warning" %} If you don't provide count, bot will index last **100** messages and filter them by default. {% endhint %} As of the above example, bot will search the text `Lumi dumbo` in last **100** messages of the channel and check if each message *starts with* the your search argument, if it does, it will be **purged**! --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
