# Run OpenSearch Dashboards using Docker
|
|
|
|
You *can* start OpenSearch Dashboards using `docker run` after [creating a Docker network](https://docs.docker.com/engine/reference/commandline/network_create/) and starting OpenSearch, but the process of connecting OpenSearch Dashboards to OpenSearch is significantly easier with a Docker Compose file.
|
|
|
|
1. Run `docker pull opensearchproject/opensearch-dashboards:{{site.opensearch_dashboards_version}}`.
|
|
|
|
1. Create a [`docker-compose.yml`](https://docs.docker.com/compose/compose-file/) file appropriate for your environment. A sample file that includes OpenSearch Dashboards is available on the OpenSearch [Docker installation page]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/opensearch/install/docker#sample-docker-composeyml).
|
|
|
|
Just like `opensearch.yml`, you can pass a custom `opensearch_dashboards.yml` to the container in the Docker Compose file.

{: .tip }
|
|
|
|
1. Run `docker-compose up`.
|
|
|
|
Wait for the containers to start. Then see the [OpenSearch Dashboards documentation]({{site.url}}{{site.baseurl}}/dashboards/index/).
|
|
|
|
1. When finished, run `docker-compose down`.
