Search conversations

searchConversation() performs a partial match against showName in the SDK's local conversation data. Use it for search within a conversation list. The search term must not be empty, and the method does not query the server for conversations that have not been synchronized locally.

const { data: conversations } = await openimsdk.searchConversation(searchKeyword.trim());

renderConversationResults(conversations);

When the Promise resolves, data contains the matching ConversationItem[], ordered by latestMsgSendTime from newest to oldest. This is a local snapshot, and the query itself does not trigger events. To keep visible search results current, merge the conversation events owned by Retrieve the conversation list by conversationID.
