@Scotty182002 - we are going to open up APIs for Stream at a future time but unfortunately, this capability is not available right now.

Once the APIs are available, you could call the /Search endpoint in the API to get hits for search results. Indexing results in another search index has problems since Stream trims the search results based on user context. As a result, each user can only see videos they have access to. If you do index in other search solutions, you are likely to loose this capability.

I am happy to discuss in more details.
