+  //
+  // - `create_time`: Accepts a timestamp in
+  //   [RFC-3339](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc3339) format and the
+  //   supported comparison operators are: `<` and `>=`.
+  // - `sender.name`: The resource name of the sender (`users/{user}`). Only
+  //   supports `=`. You can use the e-mail as an alias for `{user}`. For
+  //   example, `users/example@gmail.com`, where `example@gmail.com` is the
+  //   e-mail of the Google Chat user.
+  // - `space.name`: The resource name of the space where the message is posted.
+  //   (`spaces/{space}`). Only supports `=`. If this filter is not set, the
+  //   search is performed across all direct messages and spaces the user has
+  //   access to as a space member.
+  // - `space.display_name`: Supports the operator `:` (has) and filters spaces
+  //   based on a partial match of their display name. Results are limited to
+  //   the top five space matches. For example, `space.display_name:Project`
+  //   searches for messages in the top five spaces that contain the word
+  //   "Project" in their display names.
+  // - `attachment`: Supports the operator `:*` (has any) to check for the
+  //   presence of attachments. If `attachment:*` is specified, only messages
+  //   that have at least one attachment are returned.
+  // - `annotations.user_mentions.user.name`: The resource name of the mentioned
+  //   user (`users/{user}`). Only supports `:` (has). For example:
+  //   `annotations.user_mentions.user.name:"users/1234567890"` returns only
+  //   messages that contain a mention to the specified user. Alternatively, the
+  //   alias `me` can be used to filter for messages that mention the caller
+  //   user, for example: `annotations.user_mentions.user.name:users/me`. You
+  //   can also use the e-mail as an alias for `{user}`, for example,
+  //   `users/example@gmail.com`.
+  //
+  // For advanced filtering, the following functions are also available:
+  //
+  // - `has_link()`: Returns only messages that have at least one hyperlink in
+  //   the message text.
+  // - `is_unread()`: Filters out messages that have been read by the calling
+  //   user.
+  //
+  // Using the `space.display_name` filter requires that the calling credentials
+  // include one of the following [authorization
+  // scopes](https://developers.google.com/workspace/chat/authenticate-authorize#chat-api-scopes):
+  //
+  // - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.spaces.readonly`

+  //
+  // - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.users.readstate.readonly`
+  // - `https://www.googleapis.com/auth/chat.users.readstate`
+  //
+  //
+  // Across different fields, only `AND` operators are supported. A valid
+  // example is `sender.name = "users/1234567890" AND is_unread()`. The word
+  // `AND` is optional and is implied if omitted. For example, `sender.name =
+  // "users/1234567890" is_unread()` is valid and is equivalent to the previous
+  // example. An invalid example is `sender.name = "users/1234567890" OR
+  // is_unread()` because `OR` is not supported between different fields.
+  //
+  // Among the same field:
+  //
+  // - `create_time` supports only `AND`, and can only be used to represent
+  //    an interval, such as `create_time >= "2022-01-01T00:00:00+00:00" AND
+  //    create_time < "2023-01-01T00:00:00+00:00"`.
+  // - `sender.name` supports only the `OR` operator, for example:
+  //   `sender.name = "users/1234567890" OR sender.name = "users/0987654321"`.
+  // - `space.name` supports only the `OR` operator, for example:
+  //   `space.name = "spaces/ABCDEFGH" OR space.name = "spaces/QWERTYUI"`.
+  // - `space.display_name` supports the operators `AND` and `OR`, but not a
+  //   mix of both. For example:
+  //   `space.display_name:Project AND space.display_name:Tasks` returns
+  //   messages that are in spaces with display names containing both `Project`
+  //   and `Tasks`, whereas
+  //   `space.display_name:Project OR space.display_name:Tasks` returns messages
+  //   that are in spaces with display names containing either `Project` or
+  //   `Tasks` or both.
+  // - `annotations.user_mentions.user.name` supports the operators `AND` and
+  //   `OR`, but not a mix of both. For example:
+  //   `annotations.user_mentions.user.name:"users/1234567890" AND
+  //   annotations.user_mentions.user.name:"users/0987654321"` returns only

+  //   `annotations.user_mentions.user.name:"users/1234567890" OR
+  //   annotations.user_mentions.user.name:"users/0987654321"` returns messages
+  //   that mention either user or both.
+  //
+  // Parentheses are required to disambiguate operator precedence when combining
+  // `AND` and `OR` operators in the same query. For example:
+  // `(sender.name="users/me" OR sender.name="users/123456") AND is_unread()`.
+  // Otherwise, parentheses are optional.
