2023/11/02 - Amazon GameLift - 2 updated api methods
Changes Amazon GameLift adds support for shared credentials, which allows applications that are deployed on managed EC2 fleets to interact with other AWS resources.
{'InstanceRoleCredentialsProvider': 'SHARED_CREDENTIAL_FILE'}
Response {'FleetAttributes': {'InstanceRoleCredentialsProvider': 'SHARED_CREDENTIAL_FILE'}}
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 . You can track fleet creation by checking fleet status using DescribeFleetAttributes and DescribeFleetLocationAttributes /, or by monitoring fleet creation events using DescribeFleetEvents .
When the fleet status changes to ACTIVE , you can enable automatic scaling with PutScalingPolicy and set capacity for the home Region with UpdateFleetCapacity . When the status of each remote location reaches ACTIVE , you can set capacity by location using UpdateFleetCapacity .

(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 Realtime script. 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 "
Note
Amazon GameLift doesn't support the use of setup scripts that launch the game executable. For custom game builds, this parameter must indicate the executable that calls the server SDK operations initSDK() and ProcessReady() .
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 fleet property can't be changed after the fleet is created.
string
A unique identifier for an IAM role with access permissions to other Amazon Web Services services. Any application that runs on an instance in the fleet--including install scripts, server processes, and other processes--can use these permissions to interact with Amazon Web Services resources that you own or have access to. For more information about using the role with your game server builds, see Communicate with other Amazon Web Services resources from your fleets . This fleet property can't 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 .
(dict) --
A label that you can assign to a Amazon GameLift resource.

The type of compute resource used to host your game servers. You can use your own compute resources with Amazon GameLift Anywhere or use Amazon EC2 instances with managed Amazon GameLift.
AnywhereConfiguration (dict) --
Amazon GameLift Anywhere configuration options for your Anywhere fleets.
Cost (string) --
The cost to run your fleet per hour. Amazon GameLift uses the provided cost of your fleet to balance usage in queues. For more information about queues, see Setting up queues in the Amazon GameLift Developer Guide .
InstanceRoleCredentialsProvider (string) --
Indicates that fleet instances maintain a shared credentials file for the IAM role defined in InstanceRoleArn . Shared credentials allow applications that are deployed with the game server executable to communicate with other Amazon Web Services resources. This property is used only when the game server is integrated with the server SDK version 5.x. For more information about using shared credentials, see Communicate with other Amazon Web Services resources from your fleets .
LocationStates (list) --
The fleet's locations and life-cycle status of each location. For new fleets, the status of all locations is set to NEW . During fleet creation, Amazon GameLift updates each location status as instances are deployed there and prepared for game hosting. This list includes an entry for the fleet's home Region. For fleets with no remote locations, only one entry, representing the home Region, is returned.
(dict) --
A fleet location and its life-cycle state. A location state object might be used to describe a fleet's remote location or home Region. Life-cycle state tracks the progress of launching the first instance in a new location and preparing it for game hosting, and then removing all instances and deleting the location from the fleet.
NEW -- A new fleet location has been defined and desired instances is set to 1.
DOWNLOADING/VALIDATING/BUILDING/ACTIVATING -- Amazon GameLift is setting up the new fleet location, creating new instances with the game build or Realtime script and starting server processes.

The fleet location, expressed as an Amazon Web Services Region code such as us-west-2 .
Status (string) --
The life-cycle status of a fleet location.
{'FleetAttributes': {'InstanceRoleCredentialsProvider': 'SHARED_CREDENTIAL_FILE'}}
Retrieves core fleet-wide properties, including the computing hardware and deployment configuration for all instances in the fleet.
This operation can be used in the following ways:
To get attributes for one or more specific fleets, provide a list of fleet IDs or fleet ARNs.
To get attributes for all fleets, do not provide a fleet identifier.
When requesting attributes for multiple fleets, use the pagination parameters to retrieve results as a set of sequential pages.
If successful, a FleetAttributes object is returned for each fleet requested, unless the fleet identifier is not found.
Note
Some API operations limit the number of fleet IDs that allowed in one request. If a request exceeds this limit, the request fails and the error message contains the maximum allowed number.
