- In the management console, select the folder with your container.
- Select Serverless Containers.
- In the left-hand panel, select Containers.
- Select the container.
- The Overview page will show the container details.
If you do not have the Yandex Cloud CLI installed yet, install and initialize it.
By default, the CLI uses the folder specified when creating the profile. To change the default folder, use the yc config set folder-id <folder_ID> command. You can also set a different folder for any specific command using the --folder-name or --folder-id parameter.
To find out the name or unique ID of a container, get a list of containers in the folder.
To get detailed information about a container, run this command:
yc serverless container get <container_ID>
Result:
id: bba0hq6q1prb********
folder_id: b1gtmgn9gbvm********
created_at: "2023-01-17T11:52:56.800Z"
name: test
url: https://bba0hq6q1prb********.containers.yandexcloud.net/
status: ACTIVE
To get detailed information about a container, use the get REST API method for the Container resource or the ContainerService/Get gRPC API call.
