Claim 12:
13. A computer-implemented method of operating a group-based communication platform, the computer-implemented method comprising:
periodically sending group-based communication platform query data from a remote group-based communication server to a client device,
receiving, via communications circuitry, an indication of a non-keystroke engagement of a search input interface on the client device;
generating, via the communications circuitry on the client device, a group-based communication platform query data result responsive to the indication of the non-keystroke engagement, the group-based communication platform query data result comprising:
a plurality of data items, each data item comprising at least one of a message or a conversation associated with a group-based communication channel; and
a ranking of the plurality of data items based in part on interactions with at least some of the plurality of data items by a user of the client device;

receiving, from the user, a selection of a data item of the plurality of data items; and
responsive to receiving the selection, causing display of a user interface configured to allow the user of the client device to send a new message to at least one member of the group-based communication channel associated with the data item.
