Search an entry in the DVLS instance

Search-DSEntry [[-InputObject] <MultiVaultSearchItemData[]>] [-ExcludeVault <guid[]>]
 [-IncludeVault <guid[]>] [-IncludePAMVaults] [-IncludeUserVault] [-AsLegacyResponse]
 [<CommonParameters>]

Search-DSEntry [-By] <SearchItemType> -Value <string> [-Match <SearchItemText>]
 [-ExcludeVault <guid[]>] [-IncludeVault <guid[]>] [-IncludePAMVaults] [-IncludeUserVault]
 [-AsLegacyResponse] [<CommonParameters>]

Search an entry in the DVLS instance. There are two way to execute a search. This cmdlet allows a simple search with a single criterion using three parameters: By, Match, and Value. For a more complex search or ease of use, criteria can be created with the cmdlet New-DSSearchCriteria. The InputObject will accept an array of those criteria. By default, all vaults are searched, except the User vault and the PAM vaults. For those two vaults, each will be included by using the corresponding parameter: IncludeUserVault and IncludePAMVaults. It is also possible to search only a subset of vaults by using one of IncludeVault and ExcludeVault.

PS C:\> Search-DSEntry -By Name -Match ExactExpression -Value 'SomeValue' -IncludeVault @($pamVaultAID, $pamVaultBID)

Search in the two vaults identified by the IDs stored in $pamvaultAID and $pamVaultBID for an entry whose name named 'SomeValue'

PS C:\> New-DSSearchCriteria -By Name -Match StartsWith -Value ThePrefix | Search-DSEntry

Search all entries whose name starts with ThePrefix in all vaults, excluding the User vault and the PAM vaults.

PS C:\> $criteria = @();
        $criteria += New-DSSearchCriteria -By Username -Value AUsername;
        $criteria += New-DSSearchCriteria -By CreationDate -Value Last30Days;
        Search-DSEntry -InputObject $criteria -IncludePamVaults -IncludeVault @()

Search all PAM entries whose username contains AUsername created in the last 30 days. Only the PAM vaults will be searched.

PS C:\> $criteria = @();
        $criteria += New-DSSearchCriteria -By Username -Value AUsername;
        $criteria += New-DSSearchCriteria -By CreationDate -Value Last30Days;
        Search-DSEntry -InputObject $criteria -IncludePamVaults -IncludeVault @()

Search all PAM entries whose username contains AUsername created in the last 30 days. Only the PAM vaults will be searched.

In versions prior to 2024.2, many DS cmdlets returned a ServerResponse object. Enabling this backward compatibility switch allows scripts developed for earlier versions to function correctly.
