2023/06/29 - Amazon GameLift - 11 updated api methods
Changes Amazon GameLift now supports game builds that use the Amazon Linux 2023 (AL2023) operating system.
{'OperatingSystem': {'AMAZON_LINUX_2023'}}
Response {'Build': {'OperatingSystem': {'AMAZON_LINUX_2023'}}}
Creates a new Amazon GameLift build resource for your game server binary files. Combine game server binaries into a zip file for use with Amazon GameLift.
Warning
When setting up a new game build for Amazon GameLift, we recommend using the CLI command upload-build . This helper command combines two tasks: (1) it uploads your build files from a file directory to an Amazon GameLift Amazon S3 location, and (2) it creates a new build resource.
You can use the CreateBuild operation in the following scenarios:
Create a new game build with build files that are in an Amazon S3 location under an Amazon Web Services account that you control. To use this option, you give Amazon GameLift access to the Amazon S3 bucket. With permissions in place, specify a build name, operating system, and the Amazon S3 storage location of your game build.
Upload your build files to a Amazon GameLift Amazon S3 location. To use this option, specify a build name and operating system. This operation creates a new build resource and also returns an Amazon S3 location with temporary access credentials. Use the credentials to manually upload your build files to the specified Amazon S3 location. For more information, see Uploading Objects in the Amazon S3 Developer Guide . After you upload build files to the Amazon GameLift Amazon S3 location, you can't update them.
If successful, this operation creates a new build resource with a unique build ID and places it in INITIALIZED status. A build must be in READY status before you can create fleets with it.

string
Version information associated with a build or script. Version strings don't need to be unique. You can change this value later.
dict
Information indicating where your game build files are stored. Use this parameter only when creating a build with files stored in an Amazon S3 bucket that you own. The storage location must specify an Amazon S3 bucket name and key. The location must also specify a role ARN that you set up to allow Amazon GameLift to access your Amazon S3 bucket. The S3 bucket and your new build must be in the same Region.
If a StorageLocation is specified, the size of your file can be found in your Amazon S3 bucket. Amazon GameLift will report a SizeOnDisk of 0.
Bucket (string) --
An Amazon S3 bucket identifier. Thename of the S3 bucket.
Note
Amazon GameLift doesn't support uploading from Amazon S3 buckets with names that contain a dot (.).
Key (string) --
The name of the zip file that contains the build files or script files.
RoleArn (string) --
The Amazon Resource Name ( ARN ) for an IAM role that allows Amazon GameLift to access the S3 bucket.
ObjectVersion (string) --
The version of the file, if object versioning is turned on for the bucket. Amazon GameLift uses this information when retrieving files from an S3 bucket that you own. Use this parameter to specify a specific version of the file. If not set, the latest version of the file is retrieved.
string
The operating system that your game server binaries run on. This value determines the type of fleet resources that you use for this build. If your game build contains multiple executables, they all must run on the same operating system. You must specify a valid operating system in this request. There is no default value. You can't change a build's operating system later.
Note
If you have active fleets using the Windows Server 2012 operating system, you can continue to create new builds using this OS until October 10, 2023, when Microsoft ends its support. All others must use Windows Server 2016 when creating new Windows-based builds.
list
A list of labels to assign to the new build resource. Tags are developer defined key-value pairs. Tagging Amazon Web Services resources are useful for resource management, access management and cost allocation. For more information, see Tagging Amazon Web Services Resources in the Amazon Web Services General Reference . Once the resource is created, you can use TagResource, UntagResource, and ListTagsForResource to add, remove, and view tags. The maximum tag limit may be lower than stated. See the Amazon Web Services General Reference for actual tagging limits.

{'FleetAttributes': {'OperatingSystem': {'AMAZON_LINUX_2023'}}}
Creates a fleet of Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2) instances to host your custom game server or Realtime Servers. Use this operation to configure the computing resources for your fleet and provide instructions for running game servers on each instance.
Most Amazon GameLift fleets can deploy instances to multiple locations, including the home Region (where the fleet is created) and an optional set of remote locations. Fleets that are created in the following Amazon Web Services Regions support multiple locations: us-east-1 (N. Virginia), us-west-2 (Oregon), eu-central-1 (Frankfurt), eu-west-1 (Ireland), ap-southeast-2 (Sydney), ap-northeast-1 (Tokyo), and ap-northeast-2 (Seoul). Fleets that are created in other Amazon GameLift Regions can deploy instances in the fleet's home Region only. All fleet instances use the same configuration regardless of location; however, you can adjust capacity settings and turn auto-scaling on/off for each location.
To create a fleet, choose the hardware for your instances, specify a game server build or Realtime script to deploy, and provide a runtime configuration to direct Amazon GameLift how to start and run game servers on each instance in the fleet. Set permissions for inbound traffic to your game servers, and enable optional features as needed. When creating a multi-location fleet, provide a list of additional remote locations.
If you need to debug your fleet, fetch logs, view performance metrics or other actions on the fleet, create the development fleet with port 22/3389 open. As a best practice, we recommend opening ports for remote access only when you need them and closing them when you're finished.
If successful, this operation creates a new Fleet resource and places it in NEW status, which prompts Amazon GameLift to initiate the fleet creation workflow.

(string) --
string
The Amazon GameLift-supported Amazon EC2 instance type to use for all fleet instances. Instance type determines the computing resources that will be used to host your game servers, including CPU, memory, storage, and networking capacity. See Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud Instance Types for detailed descriptions of Amazon EC2 instance types.
list
The allowed IP address ranges and port settings that allow inbound traffic to access game sessions on this fleet. If the fleet is hosting a custom game build, this property must be set before players can connect to game sessions. For Realtime Servers fleets, Amazon GameLift automatically sets TCP and UDP ranges.
(dict) --
A range of IP addresses and port settings that allow inbound traffic to connect to server processes on an instance in a fleet. New game sessions are assigned an IP address/port number combination, which must fall into the fleet's allowed ranges. Fleets with custom game builds must have permissions explicitly set. For Realtime Servers fleets, Amazon GameLift automatically opens two port ranges, one for TCP messaging and one for UDP.
FromPort (integer) -- [REQUIRED]
A starting value for a range of allowed port numbers.
For fleets using Linux builds, only ports 22 and 1026-60000 are valid.
For fleets using Windows builds, only ports 1026-60000 are valid.
ToPort (integer) -- [REQUIRED]
An ending value for a range of allowed port numbers. Port numbers are end-inclusive. This value must be equal to or greater than FromPort .
For fleets using Linux builds, only ports 22 and 1026-60000 are valid.
For fleets using Windows builds, only ports 1026-60000 are valid.
IpRange (string) -- [REQUIRED]
A range of allowed IP addresses. This value must be expressed in CIDR notation. Example: " 000.000.000.000/[subnet mask] " or optionally the shortened version " 0.0.0.0/[subnet mask] ".
Protocol (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The network communication protocol used by the fleet.
string
The status of termination protection for active game sessions on the fleet. By default, this property is set to NoProtection . You can also set game session protection for an individual game session by calling UpdateGameSession.
NoProtection - Game sessions can be terminated during active gameplay as a result of a scale-down event.
FullProtection - Game sessions in ACTIVE status cannot be terminated during a scale-down event.
dict
Instructions for how to launch and maintain server processes on instances in the fleet. The runtime configuration defines one or more server process configurations, each identifying a build executable or Realtime script file and the number of processes of that type to run concurrently.
Note
The RuntimeConfiguration parameter is required unless the fleet is being configured using the older parameters ServerLaunchPath and ServerLaunchParameters , which are still supported for backward compatibility.
ServerProcesses (list) --
A collection of server process configurations that identify what server processes to run on each instance in a fleet.
(dict) --
A set of instructions for launching server processes on each instance in a fleet. Server processes run either an executable in a custom game build or a Realtime Servers script. Server process configurations are part of a fleet's runtime configuration.
LaunchPath (string) -- [REQUIRED]
The location of a game build executable or the Realtime script file that contains the Init() function. Game builds and Realtime scripts are installed on instances at the root:
Windows (custom game builds only): C:\game . Example: " C:\game\MyGame\server.exe "
Linux: /local/game . Examples: " /local/game/MyGame/server.exe " or " /local/game/MyRealtimeScript.js "
Parameters (string) --
An optional list of parameters to pass to the server executable or Realtime script on launch.
ConcurrentExecutions (integer) -- [REQUIRED]
The number of server processes using this configuration that run concurrently on each instance.
MaxConcurrentGameSessionActivations (integer) --
The number of game sessions in status ACTIVATING to allow on an instance. This setting limits the instance resources that can be used for new game activations at any one time.
GameSessionActivationTimeoutSeconds (integer) --
The maximum amount of time (in seconds) allowed to launch a new game session and have it report ready to host players. During this time, the game session is in status ACTIVATING . If the game session does not become active before the timeout, it is ended and the game session status is changed to TERMINATED .
dict
A policy that limits the number of game sessions that an individual player can create on instances in this fleet within a specified span of time.
NewGameSessionsPerCreator (integer) --
A policy that puts limits on the number of game sessions that a player can create within a specified span of time. With this policy, you can control players' ability to consume available resources.
The policy is evaluated when a player tries to create a new game session. On receiving a CreateGameSession request, Amazon GameLift checks that the player (identified by CreatorId ) has created fewer than game session limit in the specified time period.
PolicyPeriodInMinutes (integer) --
The time span used in evaluating the resource creation limit policy.
list
The name of an Amazon Web Services CloudWatch metric group to add this fleet to. A metric group is used to aggregate the metrics for multiple fleets. You can specify an existing metric group name or set a new name to create a new metric group. A fleet can be included in only one metric group at a time.
(string) --
string
Used when peering your Amazon GameLift fleet with a VPC, the unique identifier for the Amazon Web Services account that owns the VPC. You can find your account ID in the Amazon Web Services Management Console under account settings.
string
A unique identifier for a VPC with resources to be accessed by your Amazon GameLift fleet. The VPC must be in the same Region as your fleet. To look up a VPC ID, use the VPC Dashboard in the Amazon Web Services Management Console. Learn more about VPC peering in VPC Peering with Amazon GameLift Fleets.
string
Indicates whether to use On-Demand or Spot instances for this fleet. By default, this property is set to ON_DEMAND . Learn more about when to use On-Demand versus Spot Instances. This property cannot be changed after the fleet is created.
string
A unique identifier for an IAM role that manages access to your Amazon Web Services services. With an instance role ARN set, any application that runs on an instance in this fleet can assume the role, including install scripts, server processes, and daemons (background processes). Create a role or look up a role's ARN by using the IAM dashboard in the Amazon Web Services Management Console. Learn more about using on-box credentials for your game servers at Access external resources from a game server. This property cannot be changed after the fleet is created.
dict
Prompts Amazon GameLift to generate a TLS/SSL certificate for the fleet. Amazon GameLift uses the certificates to encrypt traffic between game clients and the game servers running on Amazon GameLift. By default, the CertificateConfiguration is DISABLED . You can't change this property after you create the fleet.
Certificate Manager (ACM) certificates expire after 13 months. Certificate expiration can cause fleets to fail, preventing players from connecting to instances in the fleet. We recommend you replace fleets before 13 months, consider using fleet aliases for a smooth transition.
Note
ACM isn't available in all Amazon Web Services regions. A fleet creation request with certificate generation enabled in an unsupported Region, fails with a 4xx error. For more information about the supported Regions, see Supported Regions in the Certificate Manager User Guide .
CertificateType (string) -- [REQUIRED]
Indicates whether a TLS/SSL certificate is generated for a fleet.
Valid values include:
GENERATED - Generate a TLS/SSL certificate for this fleet.
DISABLED - (default) Do not generate a TLS/SSL certificate for this fleet.
list
A set of remote locations to deploy additional instances to and manage as part of the fleet. This parameter can only be used when creating fleets in Amazon Web Services Regions that support multiple locations. You can add any Amazon GameLift-supported Amazon Web Services Region as a remote location, in the form of an Amazon Web Services Region code such as us-west-2 . To create a fleet with instances in the home Region only, don't use this parameter.
To use this parameter, Amazon GameLift requires you to use your home location in the request.
(dict) --
A remote location where a multi-location fleet can deploy game servers for game hosting.
Location (string) -- [REQUIRED]
An Amazon Web Services Region code, such as us-west-2 .
list
A list of labels to assign to the new fleet resource. Tags are developer-defined key-value pairs. Tagging Amazon Web Services resources are useful for resource management, access management and cost allocation. For more information, see Tagging Amazon Web Services Resources in the Amazon Web Services General Reference .

A collection of objects containing properties for each instance returned.
(dict) --
Represents an EC2 instance of virtual computing resources that hosts one or more game servers. In Amazon GameLift, a fleet can contain zero or more instances.
Related actions
FleetId (string) --
A unique identifier for the fleet that the instance is in.
FleetArn (string) --
The Amazon Resource Name ( ARN ) that is assigned to a Amazon GameLift fleet resource and uniquely identifies it. ARNs are unique across all Regions. Format is arn:aws:gamelift:<region>::fleet/fleet-a1234567-b8c9-0d1e-2fa3-b45c6d7e8912 .
InstanceId (string) --
A unique identifier for the instance.
IpAddress (string) --
IP address that is assigned to the instance.
DnsName (string) --
The DNS identifier assigned to the instance that is running the game session. Values have the following format:
TLS-enabled fleets: <unique identifier>.<region identifier>.amazongamelift.com .
Non-TLS-enabled fleets: ec2-<unique identifier>.compute.amazonaws.com . (See Amazon EC2 Instance IP Addressing.)
When connecting to a game session that is running on a TLS-enabled fleet, you must use the DNS name, not the IP address.
OperatingSystem (string) --
Operating system that is running on this instance.
Type (string) --
Amazon EC2 instance type that defines the computing resources of this instance.
Status (string) --
Current status of the instance. Possible statuses include the following:
PENDING -- The instance is in the process of being created and launching server processes as defined in the fleet's run-time configuration.
ACTIVE -- The instance has been successfully created and at least one server process has successfully launched and reported back to Amazon GameLift that it is ready to host a game session. The instance is now considered ready to host game sessions.
TERMINATING -- The instance is in the process of shutting down. This may happen to reduce capacity during a scaling down event or to recycle resources in the event of a problem.
CreationTime (datetime) --
A time stamp indicating when this data object was created. Format is a number expressed in Unix time as milliseconds (for example "1469498468.057" ).
Location (string) --
The fleet location of the instance, expressed as an Amazon Web Services Region code, such as us-west-2 .
NextToken (string) --
A token that indicates where to resume retrieving results on the next call to this operation. If no token is returned, these results represent the end of the list.
{'InstanceAccess': {'OperatingSystem': {'AMAZON_LINUX_2023'}}}
Requests remote access to a fleet instance. Remote access is useful for debugging, gathering benchmarking data, or observing activity in real time.
To remotely access an instance, you need credentials that match the operating system of the instance. For a Windows instance, Amazon GameLift returns a user name and password as strings for use with a Windows Remote Desktop client. For a Linux instance, Amazon GameLift returns a user name and RSA private key, also as strings, for use with an SSH client. The private key must be saved in the proper format to a .pem file before using. If you're making this request using the CLI, saving the secret can be handled as part of the GetInstanceAccess request, as shown in one of the examples for this operation.
To request access to a specific instance, specify the IDs of both the instance and the fleet it belongs to. You can retrieve a fleet's instance IDs by calling DescribeInstances.
