% podman-start(1)
## NAME
podman\-start - Start one or more containers
## SYNOPSIS
**podman start** [*options*] *container* ...
**podman container start** [*options*] *container* ...
## DESCRIPTION
Start one or more containers. You may use container IDs or names as input. The *attach* and *interactive*
options cannot be used to override the *--tty* and *--interactive* options from when the container
was created. If you attempt to start a running container with the *--attach* option, podman will simply
attach to the container.
## OPTIONS
#### **--attach**, **-a**
Attach container's STDOUT and STDERR. The default is false. This option cannot be used when
starting multiple containers.
#### **--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*.
#### **--interactive**, **-i**
Attach container's STDIN. The default is false.
#### **--latest**, **-l**
Instead of providing the container name or ID, use the last created container. If you use methods other than Podman
to run containers such as CRI-O, the last started container could be from either of those methods. (This option is not available with the remote Podman client, including Mac and Windows (excluding WSL2) machines)
#### **--sig-proxy**
Proxy received signals to the process (non-TTY mode only). SIGCHLD, SIGSTOP, and SIGKILL are not proxied. The default is *true* when attaching, *false* otherwise.
#### **--all**
Start all the containers created by Podman, default is only running containers.
#### **--filter**, **-f**
Filter what containers are going to be started from the given arguments.
Multiple filters can be given with multiple uses of the --filter flag.
Filters with the same key work inclusive with the only exception being
`label` which is exclusive. Filters with different keys always work exclusive.
Valid filters are listed below:
| **Filter** | **Description** |
| --------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| id | [ID] Container's ID (accepts regex) |
| name | [Name] Container's name (accepts regex) |
| label | [Key] or [Key=Value] Label assigned to a container |
| exited | [Int] Container's exit code |
| status | [Status] Container's status: 'created', 'exited', 'paused', 'running', 'unknown' |
| ancestor | [ImageName] Image or descendant used to create container |
| before | [ID] or [Name] Containers created before this container |
| since | [ID] or [Name] Containers created since this container |
| volume | [VolumeName] or [MountpointDestination] Volume mounted in container |
| health | [Status] healthy or unhealthy |
| pod | [Pod] name or full or partial ID of pod |
| network | [Network] name or full ID of network |
## EXAMPLE
podman start mywebserver
podman start 860a4b231279 5421ab43b45
