Systems and devices for presenting coordinated event search results in a user interface for a calendar are disclosed. In an example, operations include: generating a calendar surface user interface, to display at least one event in a calendar view; receiving a search query for a search of the calendar; generating a search result user interface, to display events from a result of the search query; and updating the calendar surface based on the search result, with the display of the events in the calendar surface being updated based on a match with the search query. As various examples, based on the search results or the search query: the search result portion may indicate that a corresponding event is displayed within the calendar surface portion; graphical emphasis effects may be applied to search results or events; or graphical de-emphasis effects may be applied to search results or events.

Technologies are provided for a protocol for retrieving data from a remote server at a local client and establishing a context for the client at the server. A client may execute an application enabling users to receive data such as emails stored at the server. The client may employ a messaging-over hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) to request the data from the server. An HTTP POST request may incorporate specialized headers with instructions for data retrieval, and may enable the client to establish a context with the server to identify the client for subsequent data requests. After receipt of the POST request, the server may send a receipt response and chunked intermediary responses while the request is being processed. The server may also send a cookie to the client representing the context of the client, and the client may return the cookies with subsequent data requests to the server.
