Get a Specific Metadata-Managed Property

Solution: Use the Get-SPEnterpriseSearchMetadataManagedProperty cmdlet to assign a variable the results using the -Identity and -SearchApplication parameters.

Providing the identity of the metadata-managed property with the Get-SPEnterpriseSearchMetadataManagedProperty cmdlet retrieves a specific metadata-managed property for the specified search service application. Use this to assign the results to an object for use in other cmdlets, as shown in Listing 13.16.
