November Happy Hour will be moved to Thursday December 5th.

Are there any external tools or something that allows us to search for content and export out the paths/names?

Vote:
 

The business wants a command line interface or something that they can use to search for content by name or by path and export those content names to a text file. For example, they want to be able to pull up all forms in a path like this:

_Forms / Membership Forms / ABC

And have a text file populate with

Form1

Form2

Form3

etc

Is there anything like this or do we need to build something? I tried looking for any existing tools, Powershell cmdlets, and even third party addons, but came up with nothing.

What version of CMS? There is a substantional difference between CMS 11 and 12.

There are no standard API:s requesting forms data other than such you build your self. Here is a good starting point https://lockevn.medium.com/how-do-i-programmatically-get-a-list-of-all-episerver-forms-that-are-submitted-17476c7b8e58

11. but we're upgrading to 12. That being said, I shouldn't have mentioned forms, as it's not really relevant to the issue. We're not trying to get form data. We're trying to populate a list of files based on the directory structure in EpiServer. Similar to how you would use CD and DIR in Windows.

Alright, for 11 there are a few projects like https://www.codeart.dk/blog/2020/7/developerconsole---cli/
