% podman-load(1)
## NAME
podman\-load - Load image(s) from a tar archive into container storage
## SYNOPSIS
**podman load** [*options*]
**podman image load** [*options*]
## DESCRIPTION
**podman load** loads an image from either an **oci-archive** or a **docker-archive** stored on the local machine into container storage. **podman load** reads from stdin by default or a file if the **input** option is set.
**podman load** is used for loading from the archive generated by **podman save**, that includes the image parent layers. To load the archive of container's filesystem created by **podman export**, use **podman import**.
The local client further supports loading an **oci-dir** or a **docker-dir** as created with **podman save** (1).
The **quiet** option suppresses the progress output when set.
Note: `:` is a restricted character and cannot be part of the file name.
**podman [GLOBAL OPTIONS]**
**podman load [GLOBAL OPTIONS]**
**podman load [OPTIONS]**
## OPTIONS
#### **--input**, **-i**=*input*
Load the specified input file instead of from stdin. The file can be on the local file system or on a server (e.g., https://server.com/archive.tar)
The remote client, including Mac and Windows (excluding WSL2) machines, requires the use of this option.
NOTE: Use the environment variable `TMPDIR` to change the temporary storage location of container images. Podman defaults to use `/var/tmp`.
#### **--quiet**, **-q**
Suppress the progress output
#### **--help**, **-h**
Print usage statement
## EXAMPLES
```
$ podman load --quiet -i fedora.tar
```
```
$ podman load -q -i https://server.com/archive.tar
```
```
$ podman load < fedora.tar
