## NAME
podman\-attach - Attach to a running container

## SYNOPSIS
**podman attach** [*options*] *container*

**podman container attach** [*options*] *container*

## DESCRIPTION
**podman attach** attaches to a running *container* using the *container's name* or *ID*, to either view its ongoing output or to control it interactively.\
The *container* can detached from (and leave it running) using a configurable key sequence. The default sequence is `ctrl-p,ctrl-q`. Configure the keys sequence using the **--detach-keys** OPTION, or specifying it in the `containers.conf` file: see **[containers.conf(5)](https://github.com/containers/common/blob/master/docs/containers.conf.5.md)** for more information.

## OPTIONS
#### **--detach-keys**=**sequence**

Specify the key **sequence** for detaching a *container*. Format is a single character `[a-Z]` or one or more `ctrl-<value>` characters where `<value>` is one of: `a-z`, `@`, `^`, `[`, `,` or `_`. Specifying "" will disable this feature. The default is `ctrl-p,ctrl-q`.

#### **--latest**, **-l**
Instead of providing the *container name* or *ID*, use the last created *container*. If other methods are used than Podman to run containers such as `CRI-O`, the last started *container* could be from either of those methods. The default is **false**.\
*IMPORTANT: This OPTION is not available with the remote Podman client.*

#### **--no-stdin**

Do not attach STDIN. The default is **false**.

#### **--sig-proxy**

Proxy received signals to the process (non-TTY mode only). SIGCHLD, SIGSTOP, and SIGKILL are not proxied. The default is **true**.

## EXAMPLES

Attach to a container called "foobar".
```
$ podman attach foobar
```

Attach to the latest created container.
```
$ podman attach --latest
```

Attach to a container that start with the ID "1234".
```
$ podman attach 1234
```

Attach to a container without attaching STDIN.
```
$ podman attach --no-stdin foobar
```
