Insert contents of one file into a specific area of another file and saving it

I am a newbie to powershell and I am looking to merge contents of one file into another file

I have 2 files I want to merge the contents

Open 1st file named “config.xml” find Text “trigger”

Insert contents of second file “triggerInfo.txt” into “config.xml” after the word “trigger”

Overwrite modified file “config.xml”

any help would be appreciated
