Runpod CLI makes it easy to manage Pods using your local terminal. Use the commands below to manage your Pods with runpodctl. For a complete list of commands, run runpodctl help.

​
List all Pods

Run this command to list the details of all Pods associated with your Runpod account: 
runpodctl get pod
Example output: 
ID            	NAME 	GPU        	IMAGE NAME                                              	STATUS

Get details for a Pod

Run this command to get the details of a single Pod: 
runpodctl get pod [POD_ID]
Example output: 
ID            	NAME 	GPU        	IMAGE NAME                                              	STATUS  
gq9xijdra9hwyd	Pod2	1 L4       	runpod/pytorch:2.1.0-py3.10-cuda11.8.0-devel-ubuntu22.04	RUNNING

​
Stop a Pod

You will be charged for idle Pods even if they are stopped. If you don’t need to retain your Pod environment, you should terminate it completely.
Run this command to stop a Pod: 
runpodctl stop pod [POD_ID]
Example output: 
pod "gq9xijdra9hwyd" stopped

​
Resume a Pod

Run this command to resume a Pod that has been stopped: 
runpodctl start pod [POD_ID]
Example output: 
pod "wu5ekmn69oh1xr" started with $0.290 / hr

​
Terminate a Pod

Terminating a Pod permanently deletes all data outside your network volume. Be sure you’ve saved any data you want to access again.
Run this command to terminate a Pod: 
runpodctl remove pod [POD_ID]
Example output: 
pod "wu5ekmn69oh1xr" removed
You can also terminate a Pod by name: 
runpodctl remove pods [POD_NAME]
