    Find Omnichannel contacts by name, email, phone number, or any custom field values stored in the database. Permission required: view-l-room

    curl --location --globoff 'http://localhost:3000/api/v1/omnichannel/contact.search?custom={%20%22Subscription%22%3A%20%22premium%22%20}' \
    --header 'X-Auth-Token: b5BKhblglC5OU0AfB_Tl9dKmOb0zXUvWK-nhNT_aE8V' \
    --header 'X-User-Id: CkCPNcvsvCDfmWLqC'
