# nsc vnc

Start a VNC session.

`vnc` connects to a previously created instance via VNC, allowing you to access [graphical environments on remote instances](/content/docs/architecture/compute/ssh-remote-display.md#vnc-remote-display/index.html).

VNC support is currently available for [macOS instances](/content/docs/architecture/compute/macos.md). Support for other platforms is in development.

## Usage

```bash theme={null}
nsc vnc [instance-id]
```

### Example

Start a VNC session to a running instance, or omit the instance id to get a list of your instances.

```bash theme={null}
nsc vnc 85a32emcg99ii
```

```text nocopy Output theme={null}
Connected to instance.
Opening VNC client...
```

Alternatively, you can also access VNC directly from the Namespace [dashboard](https://cloud.namespace.so/workspace/instances).

## Options

`nsc vnc` has no options.
