Starts a stopped computer. Its disk is restored — files, installed software, and configuration — and the computer boots on a freshly chosen host.
A started computer receives a new IP address and boots fresh: running processes and other in-memory state from before the stop are not restored, only the disk. Starting can take longer than a normal request while the saved disk is fetched and the computer cold-boots.

​
Path parameters

​
id
string
required
Computer ID.

​
Response

​
success
boolean
true if start was initiated.
Idempotent - starting an already-running computer returns success without side effects.

​
Example

curl -X POST https://www.orgo.ai/api/computers/a3bb189e-8bf9-3888-9912-ace4e6543002/start \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ORGO_API_KEY"

import requests

response = requests.post(
    f"https://www.orgo.ai/api/computers/{computer_id}/start",
    headers={"Authorization": f"Bearer {api_key}"}
)

if response.json().get("success"):
    print("Computer starting")

const response = await fetch(`https://www.orgo.ai/api/computers/${computerId}/start`, {
  method: 'POST',
  headers: { 'Authorization': `Bearer ${apiKey}` }
});

const { success } = await response.json();
if (success) console.log('Computer starting');

​
Response

{
  "success": true
}

​
Errors

  • 401 - Invalid or missing API key
  • 403 - You don’t have access to this computer
  • 404 - Computer not found
  • 409 - Computer is not stopped (e.g. already running, or still being created)
