I have iCloud messages enabled. I accidentally deleted a conversation from an iOS device so that has been deleted from all devices. Fortunately it hasn't been deleted from my Mac. Is it possible to restore or re-sync the conversation from Mac to iCloud?
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 12.2
Messages were synced using iCloud services ( the Mac and iPhone are signed in with same Apple ID and password on the same network , if iCloud is disabled in Mac , syncing stops ,messages are synced both ways if you delete from one device it simply delete from other , and their is no option to move messages in recently deleted if you compare with other application like mail , notes , mail ..etc .
The reason messages are not saved in iCloud , they are simply syncing .
So the deleted messages can't be exported
See the details in these article What does iCloud back up? - Apple Support

With Continuity, all the SMS/MMS messages you send and receive on iPhone also appear on your other iOS devices and your Mac. See the Apple Support article Use Continuity to connect your Mac, iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Apple Watch.

But this is the weird in my case. I have never signed out or disabled iCloud at any of my devices, neither iOS nor Mac. And the most interesting is that new messages are continuing to be syncing. I think there is a bug with auto sync at macOS that saved my conversation.
Is there any chance to be deleted also from Mac if I never push the "sync now" button from settings? Is it possible to backup or export the conversation?
These are not helpful.
I have already found solution restoring the lost discussion.
Thanks for your trying anyway
