Power Shell Qlik-Cli

I have been trying to figure out as to how to use the Qlik CLI for power that I downloaded from GitHub.  Just wondering if anyone is aware of detailed help information on how these cmdlets are to be used.  I found a PDF that details a few simple tasks from https://community.qlik.com/t5/Qlik-Sense-Enterprise-Documents/Use-Case-Qlik-Sense-Cmdlet-for-PowerSh... I'm looking for something with more detail for the cmdlts as Get-Help hasn't been exactly useful.

Have you come across https://ahaydon.github.io/Qlik-Cli/ which is linked on the Github page?

As for the Github page, I would be sure to check out the Wiki (https://github.com/ahaydon/Qlik-Cli/wiki) if you have not already done so.

The available information is still not very detailed. I have manage to find some more information in this link: https://community.qlik.com/t5/Qlik-Sense-Enterprise-Documents/Use-Case-Qlik-Sense-Cmdlet-for-PowerSh.... Which has a link to this PDF: https://community.qlik.com/t5/Qlik-Sense-Enterprise-Documents/Use-Case-Qlik-Sense-Cmdlet-for-PowerSh... Still not very detailed. But I suppose that you cannot expect much for something like this.

I'm still finding that this available documentation is of little or no use. I'm trying to figure out how to use the "-filter" option in the Get-QlikTask cmdlt unless there is other documentation around it appears to be an exercise in trial and error.

There's some cursory documentation on the Wiki but at its core the filter param is a Qlik Sense Repository API piece of functionality which Qlik-CLI just exposes. What is the use case which isn't working?

I worked around it using a pipe and a where clause works fine. Basically did this

$(Get-QlikTask -full -raw) | where {($_.schemaPath -eq "ReloadTask") -and ($_.name -match $QlikSenseReloadTask0)}
