## Overview

Overview When a search involves people (e.g., “emails from me”, “notes I created yesterday”), the search tool needs to know who “me” is. Implement this protocol to provide the current user’s contact information from your app’s identity source — such as an account profile, Contacts framework, or other source. Example: struct MyContactResolver: ContactResolver {     func userIdentity() -> ResolvedContact {         var contact = ResolvedContact(displayName: "John Appleseed")         contact.emailAddresses = ["john@example.com"]         return contact     } }

var configuration = SpotlightSearchTool.Configuration() configuration.contactResolver = MyContactResolver()
