How to check if Traffic Manager exists globally

I want to check whether a traffic manager is unique or not. I am using Powershell Commandlets to get the information.

$profile = Get-AzureRmTrafficManagerProfile -Name $ResourceName -ResourceGroupName $ResourceGroupName

This command only checks for the traffic manager profile in the specified group. But traffic manager's are deployed globally. So, when I try to deploy with same traffic manager name in different resource group then error is thrown.

To avoid this error, I want to check at first only if that traffic manager exists globally. Didn't find any solution in documentation.

Is there any way to achieve this?

You can use the Test-AzureTrafficManagerDomainName powershell cmdlet.

C:\> get-help Test-AzureTrafficManagerDomainName

NAME
    Test-AzureTrafficManagerDomainName

SYNOPSIS
    Checks whether a domain name is available as a Traffic Manager profile.


SYNTAX
    Test-AzureTrafficManagerDomainName [-DomainName] <String> [<CommonParameters>]


DESCRIPTION
    The Test-AzureTrafficManagerDomainName cmdlet checks whether a domain name is available as a Microsoft Azure
    Traffic Manager profile. If the domain name is available, this cmdlet returns a value of $True.

Or you could use a rest call to this endpoint:
https://management.core.windows.net/SUB_GUID/services/WATM/operations/isavailable/%NAME%.trafficmanager.net
