Hi Aakash,

I would consider the following options, there is however no magic

1. Client side filter, so where ISHRemote runs. Meaning, retrieve every file and parse locally for your keyword.
2. Client side with filter, using a MetadataFilter you could reduce the result set server-side. And still retrieve the file and parse locally for your keyword. Another filter is if you really need to parse every version (or only Latest) and every language.
3. Server side filter, using the Search API. The full-text-index is the only place where we actually look inside the xml content; unless you extracted it to a metadata field (so scenario 2). However, "Search-ISHDocumentObj" is not implemented yet but the most simple design is on Add cmdlet Search-IshDocumentObj · Issue #52 · sdl/ISHRemote ... happy to accept contributions.

Thank you for the quick response. Considering the first option, how would I parse locally for the keyword once I have the objects available?

In PowerShell you can choose to 

• Load in an XmlDocument, then use an XPath expression if you know which xml elements you expect hits in (first google result https://stackoverflow.com/questions/18509358/how-to-iterate-through-xml-in-powershell)
• Load as text like Get-Content, then parse, as probably "Power" is not a DITA xml element anyway :-)

Or save to the file system, use Microsoft technology or https://www.mythicsoft.com/agentransack/

Thank you again! I tried to implement the first option above but I am not sure how to load in the XML Document properly. Can you please let me know the best way to load in the XML document given the Content objects.

Nice. I am also wondering about it. Thank you for the mention and sharing from Dave

ISHRemote v0.13 (and later) have Search-IshDocumentObj implemented... see examples on https://github.com/RWS/ISHRemote/blob/master/Doc/ReleaseNotes-ISHRemote-0.13.md perhaps this unblocks other people on this thread.
