# Is `wandb launch -d` or `wandb job create image` uploading a whole Docker artifact and not pulling from a registry?

No, the `wandb launch -d` command doesn't upload images to a registry. Upload images to a registry separately. Follow these steps:

1. Build an image.
2. Push the image to a registry.

The workflow is as follows. Replace `[REPO-URL]` with your registry URL and `[TAG]` with the image tag:

```bash theme={null}
docker build -t [REPO-URL]:[TAG] .
docker push [REPO-URL]:[TAG]
wandb launch -d [REPO-URL]:[TAG]
```

The launch agent then starts a job pointing to the specified container. For examples of configuring agent access to pull images from a container registry, see [Advanced agent setup](/platform/launch/setup-agent-advanced/#agent-configuration).

For Kubernetes, ensure that the Pods in the cluster have access to the registry where the image is pushed.
