# Instance Types Available

## Finding Available Instance Types

A list of instance types to which you have access is available via the command-line interface (CLI), by entering the command dx run --instance-type-help. When using the user interface (UI) to configure a tool to run an analysis, you can see this list in the settings pane when you are running your analysis.
