With more than 400 commands, finding the right tool for the job can actually be hard, even with good search skills. Recognizing this issue, dbatools contains a command to help you navigate the module: Find-DbaCommand.

All commands in dbatools have been assigned tags, based on what they do and what they do it with:

Find-DbaCommand -Tag copy

Since often this is not enough, it is also possible to do a pattern search over all commands:

Find-DbaCommand -Pattern snapshot

Pattern in this instance is a regular expression search filter that is used to search the help text of all commands to find the correct one. This allows searching somewhat by context, even if you cannot remember the explicit terminology of what you are trying to work with.

Finally, commands can also be searched by author (sometimes handy when following up on a blog post or release notes), as follows:

Find-DbaCommand -Author chrissy
