# Attach a volume to a container
{% hint style="danger" %}
This article explains how to attach a new [volume](../volumes/) to a running container. This operation destroys the running container and starts a new one with the volume attached.
**Always back up your data before running this operation.**
{% endhint %}
From the menu select **Containers**, select the container that you want to attach a volume to, then click **Duplicate/Edit**.
