    Hi Karthik,

    Your question had to go through moderation because it contained client contact details and the question was posted on a public forum, which can be viewed by anyone inside and outside of Thomson Reuters. Please refrain from mentioning any identifying information in postings to public forums. In this case it wasn't necessary to provide any info about the client asking the question. However if you even need to mention some identifying information, please use TR Internal category, which can only be viewed by Thomson Reuters employees, or mark your question as private.
    I moved this question to TR Internal category and deleted client contact details.
    Now to answer client's question, the best way to search for content is through Eikon. If the client doesn't have any Windows boxes, they could use Eikon Web, which is browser based and can be used on any operating system. If the client does not wish to subscribe to Eikon, the second best tool they can use is the RIC search capability here on Thomson Reuters Developer portal:
    https://developers.thomsonreuters.com/elektron/elektron-sdk-cc/dev-tools

    The RIC search tool is not perfect, but this is the best we have outside of Eikon.
    I hope this helps
