Invoke search-based message extension after users press enter

[yuting1008]

Hi,

I am building a search-based message extension. Currently, the extension is invoked whenever the user is typing. This results in multiple queries being sent to the system for each keystroke. For example, if the user types "Azure," the system receives queries for "Az," "Azur," and "Azure."

This behavior can lead to:

• Unnecessary system load due to redundant API calls.
• Performance issues affecting user experience.

Is it possible to invoke the search-based message extension only after the user presses Enter, instead of triggering it on every keystroke?

Any guidance or best practices would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
