# getstream open

Open a Stream app in the [Dashboard](https://getstream.io/signin/).

```bash
getstream open [--app-id <id>]
```

Run it from a directory linked with [`getstream init`](https://getstream.io/cli/docs/commands/init/) to open the linked app, or pass `--app-id` to open any app your account session can reach. The app opens in your default browser.
