Correct search string for this Amazon search
What is wrong with this search string on amazon.com?
The below syntax returns standard hdmi cables as opposed to mini-hdmi
1. The search string mini-hdmi to usb-c does not work.
2. The search string "mini-hdmi"+to+"usb-c" does not work.

Thanks Roy.
I'm still not finding the cable with "mini hdmi"+to+"usb c" ?
Are you?
If so, can you provide a link to it?

forget the quotes and the dashes just enter the characters "mini hdmi to usb c" with no quotes around it, From the generated drop down list i selected "mini hdmi to usb c cable" and got the following URL - https://www.amazon.com/s?k=mini+hdmi+to+usb+c+cable&crid=1SNMCJ1UQB1YG&sprefix=mini+hdmi+to+usb+c+%2Caps%2C135&ref=nb_sb_ss_i_4_19
You could also enter "mini hdmi to usb c cable" (no quotes) in the Amazon search box and get the same result.
Note: the + in the URL stands for space.

That does not return the right cable.
If you really are going from Mini-HDMI to USB-C, you shouldn't be able to find anything. HDMI is much lower bandwidth than USB-C. There is no way to upscale that without some kind of convertor that takes HDMI.
If you actually are going from USB-C to Mini-HDMI, I don't see anything along that line, since Mini-HDMI doesn't seem to actually be a popular connector. What you will need to do is search for is a USB-C to HDMI adapter, then search for an HDMI to Mini-HDMI cable. That's the closest thing I found for going from USB-C to mini-HDMI.
