The Find-Module command

The Find-Module command allows you to search the PowerShell Gallery or any other registered repository for modules.

Modules can be identified by name, as shown in the following example:

Find-Module Carbon 
Find-Module -Name Carbon 
Find-Module -Name Azure*

If the name is not sufficient for the search, the Filter parameter may be used. Supplying a value for the Filter parameter is equivalent to using the search field in the PowerShell Gallery that expands the search to include tags:

Find-Module -Filter IIS
