Terminals

The Terminals section lets you open an interactive shell inside any running container directly in your browser โ€” no docker exec required.

Opening a Terminal

  • From the Dashboard โ€” Open any container dropdown in the Active Containers section and click Exec
  • From the Containers page โ€” Click Terminal on any running container row

A shell session starts using the default shell (/bin/sh or /bin/bash depending on the image).

Usage

Standard terminal behavior: type commands and press Enter, use Ctrl+C to interrupt, Ctrl+D or exit to close.

Limitations

  • Running containers only โ€” Start stopped containers first via Containers
  • Shell required โ€” Minimal images without a shell (e.g., distroless) will fail to open
  • No persistence โ€” Closing the browser tab ends the session
  • One session per container โ€” Only one terminal session can be open per container at a time
