# Resuming instance group processes

On resume, previously stopped [update](../../concepts/instance-groups/deploy/index.md), [automatic recovery](../../concepts/instance-groups/autohealing.md), and [scaling](../../concepts/instance-groups/policies/scale-policy.md) processes will be restarted, and significant group changes associated with the paused processes, such as changes to group size or instance configuration, will be applied.

To resume processes in an instance group:

{% list tabs group=instructions %}

- Management console {#console}

  1. In the [management console](https://console.yandex.cloud), open the folder containing the instance group in question.
  1. Navigate to **Compute Cloud**.
  1. In the left-hand panel, select ![image](../../../_assets/console-icons/layers-3-diagonal.svg) **Instance groups**.
  1. In the line with the instance group, click ![image](../../../_assets/console-icons/ellipsis.svg) and select **Resume**.
  1. In the window that opens, click **Resume**.

- API {#api}

  Use the [resumeProcesses](../../instancegroup/api-ref/InstanceGroup/resumeProcesses.md) REST API method for the [InstanceGroup](../../instancegroup/api-ref/InstanceGroup/index.md) resource or the [InstanceGroupService/ResumeProcesses](../../instancegroup/api-ref/grpc/InstanceGroup/resumeProcesses.md) gRPC API call.
