When a user creates a one-to-one or group chat, a conversation will be created.
In the Tencent Cloud IM SDK, the conversation class is ConvInfo. You can use the conversation management class APIs to display/update the conversation list, update the unread count, pin a conversation to the top, make a conversation draft, and mute message notifications.

If the information of a conversation has not been updated for a long time, the conversation can be stored in the cloud for up to seven days. To extend the conversation storage period, contact us for application.
Locally stored conversations may not always be consistent with those stored in the cloud. If the user does not call the ConvDelete API to delete the local conversations, the conversations will always exist. However, up to 100 conversations can be stored in the cloud, and if the information of a conversation has not been updated for a long time, the conversation can be stored in the cloud for up to seven days. Therefore, local conversations displayed on different terminals may differ.
