Hi Simo,

Since version 0.7 the explicit -IshSession parameter is no longer required, although it is good practice to be explicit :-) (https://github.com/sdl/ISHRemote/releases/tag/v0.7)

On my reference system using ISHRemote v0.10 the default rendering of your first cmdlet looks like below including the status (fstatus property)

ISHType          Title                                    LogicalId                                 Version Lang  Res   Status             ModifiedBy          ModifiedOn

Assuming that you are looking for version 4 in en-us as a hit in this example data then the below could work for you

# First of all, you need the latest ISHRemote (at the time of writing 0.10), see github.com/.../ISHRemote how to update
#
# Option 1; probably fastest using server-side filter to only retrieve you requested language for your specified LogicalId/ObjectID
$metadataFilter = Set-IshMetadataFilterField -Level Lng -Name DOC-LANGUAGE -FilterOperator Equal -Value en-US
$thisObject = Get-IshDocumentObj -LogicalId $objectID -MetadataFilter $metadataFilter | 
              Sort-Object -Descending -Property version_version_value |
              Select-Object -First 1
# Risk here is that Sort-Object sorts alphabetically, so version 1, 10, 11, 2... you expect numerically, let 
# alone sorting branches like 11.2.2 is higher than 11.1.1


# Option 2; the CMS API allows it, but ISHRemote doesn't offer it directly, indirectly however... :-)
# The most accurate as the filtering happens server-side for the version 
# and language, however the filtering on the right LogicalId/ObjectID happens client side so in 
# practice you are retrieving full folder content and then selecting the right one which could affect performance
$folderPath = Get-IshDocumentObjFolderLocation -LogicalId $objectID
$thisObject = Get-IshFolderContent -FolderPath $folderPath -VersionFilter "latest" -LanguagesFilter "en-US" | 
              Where-Object -Property IshRef -EQ -Value $objectID


# Option 3; to come up with an idea to improve ISHRemote by some cmdlet overload and log it on GitHub

Happy Friday!

Hello Dave,

I tried your option 1, and it worked. Now I can get the status info I wanted like this:

$objectStatus =  Get-IshMetadataField -IshObject $thisObject -ValueType Value -Level Lng -Name FSTATUS

Thanks a lot!
