Got the message "No data found" when trying to search for rooms, which contain cyrillic letters in names.

Steps to reproduce:
  1. open Rooms section in you administration panel, e.g. https://some_rocket_workspace.com/admin/rooms
  2. try to search for any channel/room/group, which contains cyrillic (Russian in my case) letters. Example: вопросы-мониторинга
Expected behavior:

Rooms found.

Actual behavior:

No rooms found.

Research direction

Start at the /admin/rooms entry point and reproduce the search with the Cyrillic room name “вопросы-мониторинга.” Trace the room-search flow and compare Cyrillic input with other searches. Done means rooms containing Cyrillic letters are returned in both the browser and desktop app.
