c# Get innerHtml of an iFrame (using native .net framework)

using SHDocVw;

If I set up an internet explorer object and navigate to a page, I can get the innerhtml of the document like so:

mshtml.HTMLDocument htmlDoc = IE.Document;

string s = htmlDoc.body.innerHTML;

But this HTML is always missing the contents of the various iframes contained within it (even though I can see these in the DOM explorer in F12 dev).

How can I get iframe content?

I've tried:

1) This java attempt here but not sure how to replicate that in c#

2) getting the parent window properties e.g. htmlDoc.parentWindow.frames but not sure how to isolate frames

3) Banging my head against the keyboard

4) Also not able to use HTMLAgilityPacks or external libraries since this needs distributed widely and we're not sure of the implications of using these "external" libraries

Most answers seem related to js but there's usually a tonne of answers related to IE traversing on c#

Are those iframes maybe populated with an xhr call (json)? Do you have the url?
