This option supports both absolute and relative paths. ### Start/Stop Services In the case of the **Start service** step, use the **Scale** option to spin up more than one running instance of a service. {width="750"} ### Execute Command Inside Running Container Use the **Container Index** option to select the instance where you want to run the command. If the **Working Directory** is left empty, the plugin will use the default one for the container. {width="750"} ### Pipeline Support Use the [Snippet Generator](https://jenkins.io/doc/book/pipeline/getting-started/#snippet-generator) to generate a Docker Compose Build step "metastep" for a scripted pipeline. {width="750"}
