public interface AmazonGameLift
Note: Do not directly implement this interface, new methods are added to it regularly. Extend from
AbstractAmazonGameLift
instead.
Welcome to the Amazon GameLift API Reference. Amazon GameLift is a managed Amazon Web Services (AWS) service for developers who need a scalable, server-based solution for multiplayer games. Amazon GameLift provides setup and deployment of game servers, and handles infrastructure scaling and session management.
This reference describes the low-level service API for GameLift. You can call this API directly or use the AWS SDK for your preferred language. The AWS SDK includes a set of high-level GameLift actions multiplayer game sessions. Alternatively, you can use the AWS command-line interface (CLI) tool, which includes commands for GameLift. For administrative actions, you can also use the Amazon GameLift console.

Manage Games and Players Through GameLift
Call these actions from your game clients and/or services to create and manage multiplayer game sessions and player sessions.
Game sessions:
Player sessions:
Other actions:
Set Up and Manage Game Servers
Use these administrative actions to configure GameLift to host your game servers. When setting up GameLift, you will need to (1) configure a build for your game and upload build files, and (2) set up one or more fleets to host game sessions. Once you've created and activated a fleet, you can assign aliases to it, scale capacity, track performance and utilization, etc.

static final String ENDPOINT_PREFIX
void setEndpoint(String endpoint)
Callers can pass in just the endpoint (ex: "gamelift.us-east-1.amazonaws.com") or a full URL, including the
protocol (ex: "https://gamelift.us-east-1.amazonaws.com"). If the protocol is not specified here, the default
protocol from this client's ClientConfiguration
will be used, which by default is HTTPS.
For more information on using AWS regions with the AWS SDK for Java, and a complete list of all available endpoints for all AWS services, see: http://developer.amazonwebservices.com/connect/entry.jspa?externalID=3912
This method is not threadsafe. An endpoint should be configured when the client is created and before any service requests are made. Changing it afterwards creates inevitable race conditions for any service requests in transit or retrying.

CreateAliasResult createAlias(CreateAliasRequest createAliasRequest)
Creates an alias for a fleet. You can use an alias to anonymize your fleet by referencing an alias instead of a specific fleet when you create game sessions. Amazon GameLift supports two types of routing strategies for aliases: simple and terminal. Use a simple alias to point to an active fleet. Use a terminal alias to display a message to incoming traffic instead of routing players to an active fleet. This option is useful when a game server is no longer supported but you want to provide better messaging than a standard 404 error.
To create a fleet alias, specify an alias name, routing strategy, and optional description. If successful, a new alias record is returned, including an alias ID, which you can reference when creating a game session. To reassign the alias to another fleet ID, call UpdateAlias.
createAliasRequest
- Represents the input for a request action.UnauthorizedException
- The client failed authentication. Clients should not retry such requests.InvalidRequestException
- One or more parameter values in the request are invalid. Correct the invalid parameter values before
retrying.ConflictException
- The requested operation would cause a conflict with the current state of a service resource associated
with the request. Resolve the conflict before retrying this request.InternalServiceException
- The service encountered an unrecoverable internal failure while processing the request. Clients can retry
such requests immediately or after a waiting period.LimitExceededException
- The requested operation would cause the resource to exceed the allowed service limit. Resolve the issue
before retrying.CreateBuildResult createBuild(CreateBuildRequest createBuildRequest)
Initializes a new build record and generates information required to upload a game build to Amazon GameLift. Once
the build record has been created and its status is INITIALIZED
, you can upload your game build.
Do not use this API action unless you are using your own Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) client and
need to manually upload your build files. Instead, to create a build, use the CLI command
upload-build
, which creates a new build record and uploads the build files in one step. (See the Amazon GameLift
Developer Guide help on packaging and uploading your build.)
To create a new build, identify the operating system of the game server binaries. All game servers in a build must use the same operating system. Optionally, specify a build name and version; this metadata is stored with other properties in the build record and is displayed in the GameLift console (it is not visible to players). If successful, this action returns the newly created build record along with the Amazon S3 storage location and AWS account credentials. Use the location and credentials to upload your game build.
createBuildRequest
- Represents the input for a request action.UnauthorizedException
- The client failed authentication. Clients should not retry such requests.InvalidRequestException
- One or more parameter values in the request are invalid. Correct the invalid parameter values before
retrying.ConflictException
- The requested operation would cause a conflict with the current state of a service resource associated
with the request. Resolve the conflict before retrying this request.InternalServiceException
- The service encountered an unrecoverable internal failure while processing the request. Clients can retry
such requests immediately or after a waiting period.CreateFleetResult createFleet(CreateFleetRequest createFleetRequest)
Creates a new fleet to run your game servers. A fleet is a set of Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (Amazon EC2)
instances, each of which can run multiple server processes to host game sessions. You configure a fleet to create
instances with certain hardware specifications (see Amazon
EC2 Instance Types for more information), and deploy a specified game build to each instance. A newly created
fleet passes through several statuses; once it reaches the ACTIVE
status, it can begin hosting game
sessions.
To create a new fleet, provide a fleet name, an EC2 instance type, and a build ID of the game build to deploy. You can also configure the new fleet with the following settings: (1) a runtime configuration describing what server processes to run on each instance in the fleet (required to create fleet), (2) access permissions for inbound traffic, (3) fleet-wide game session protection, and (4) the location of default log files for GameLift to upload and store.
If the CreateFleet
call is successful, Amazon GameLift performs the following tasks:
Creates a fleet record and sets the status to NEW
(followed by other statuses as the fleet is
activated).
Sets the fleet's capacity to 1 "desired", which causes GameLift to start one new EC2 instance.
Starts launching server processes on the instance. If the fleet is configured to run multiple server processes per instance, GameLift staggers each launch by a few seconds.
Begins writing events to the fleet event log, which can be accessed in the GameLift console.
Sets the fleet's status to ACTIVE
once one server process in the fleet is ready to host a game
session.
After a fleet is created, use the following actions to change fleet properties and configuration:
UpdateFleetAttributes -- Update fleet metadata, including name and description.
UpdateFleetCapacity -- Increase or decrease the number of instances you want the fleet to maintain.
UpdateFleetPortSettings -- Change the IP address and port ranges that allow access to incoming traffic.
UpdateRuntimeConfiguration -- Change how server processes are launched in the fleet, including launch path, launch parameters, and the number of concurrent processes.

- One or more parameter values in the request are invalid. Correct the invalid parameter values before
retrying.UnauthorizedException
- The client failed authentication. Clients should not retry such requests.CreateGameSessionResult createGameSession(CreateGameSessionRequest createGameSessionRequest)
Creates a multiplayer game session for players. This action creates a game session record and assigns an
available server process in the specified fleet to host the game session. A fleet must be in an
ACTIVE
status before a game session can be created in it.
To create a game session, specify either fleet ID or alias ID, and indicate a maximum number of players to allow in the game session. You can also provide a name and game-specific properties for this game session. If successful, a GameSession object is returned containing session properties, including an IP address. By default, newly created game sessions allow new players to join. Use UpdateGameSession to change the game sessions player session creation policy.
When creating a game session on a fleet with a resource limit creation policy, the request should include a creator ID. If none is provided, GameLift does not evaluate the fleet's resource limit creation policy.

Adds a group of players to a game session. Similar to CreatePlayerSession, this action allows you to add
multiple players in a single call, which is useful for games that provide party and/or matchmaking features. A
game session must be in an ACTIVE
status, have a creation policy of ALLOW_ALL
, and have
an open player slot before players can be added to the session.
To create player sessions, specify a game session ID and a list of player IDs. If successful, the players are added to the game session and a set of new PlayerSession objects is returned.

Requests remote access to a fleet instance. Remote access is useful for debugging, gathering benchmarking data, or watching activity in real time.
Access requires credentials that match the operating system of the instance. For a Windows instance, GameLift returns a username and password as strings for use with a Windows Remote Desktop client. For a Linux instance, GameLift returns a username 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 AWS CLI, saving the secret can be handled as part of the GetInstanceAccess request (see the example later in this topic). For more information on remote access, see Remotely Accessing an Instance.
To request access to a specific instance, specify the IDs of the instance and the fleet it belongs to. If successful, an InstanceAccess object is returned containing the instance's IP address and a set of credentials.

Creates or updates a scaling policy for a fleet. An active scaling policy prompts Amazon GameLift to track a certain metric for a fleet and automatically change the fleet's capacity in specific circumstances. Each scaling policy contains one rule statement. Fleets can have multiple scaling policies in force simultaneously.
A scaling policy rule statement has the following structure:
If [MetricName]
is [ComparisonOperator]
[Threshold]
for
[EvaluationPeriods]
minutes, then [ScalingAdjustmentType]
to/by
[ScalingAdjustment]
.
For example, this policy: "If the number of idle instances exceeds 20 for more than 15 minutes, then reduce the fleet capacity by 10 instances" could be implemented as the following rule statement:
If [IdleInstances] is [GreaterThanOrEqualToThreshold] [20] for [15] minutes, then [ChangeInCapacity] by [-10].
To create or update a scaling policy, specify a unique combination of name and fleet ID, and set the rule values. All parameters for this action are required. If successful, the policy name is returned. Scaling policies cannot be suspended or made inactive. To stop enforcing a scaling policy, call DeleteScalingPolicy.

Retrieves a fresh set of upload credentials and the assigned Amazon S3 storage location for a specific build. Valid credentials are required to upload your game build files to Amazon S3.
Call this action only if you need credentials for a build created with CreateBuild
. This is
a rare situation; in most cases, builds are created using the CLI command upload-build
, which
creates a build record and also uploads build files.
Upload credentials are returned when you create the build, but they have a limited lifespan. You can get fresh
credentials and use them to re-upload game files until the status of that build changes to READY
.
Once this happens, you must create a brand new build.

in the routing strategy itself. Such requests should only be retried if the routing strategy for the
specified alias is modified.InternalServiceException
- The service encountered an unrecoverable internal failure while processing the request. Clients can retry
such requests immediately or after a waiting period.SearchGameSessionsResult searchGameSessions(SearchGameSessionsRequest searchGameSessionsRequest)
Retrieves a set of game sessions that match a set of search criteria and sorts them in a specified order. Currently a game session search is limited to a single fleet. Search results include only game sessions that are in ACTIVE status. If you need to retrieve game sessions with a status other than active, use DescribeGameSessions. If you need to retrieve the protection policy for each game session, use DescribeGameSessionDetails.
You can search or sort by the following game session attributes:
gameSessionId -- ID value assigned to a game session. This unique value is returned in a GameSession object when a new game session is created.
gameSessionName -- Name assigned to a game session. This value is set when requesting a new game session with CreateGameSession or updating with UpdateGameSession. Game session names do not need to be unique to a game session.
creationTimeMillis -- Value indicating when a game session was created. It is expressed in Unix time as milliseconds.
playerSessionCount -- Number of players currently connected to a game session. This value changes rapidly as players join the session or drop out.
maximumSessions -- Maximum number of player sessions allowed for a game session. This value is set when requesting a new game session with CreateGameSession or updating with UpdateGameSession.
hasAvailablePlayerSessions -- Boolean value indicating whether or not a game session has reached its
maximum number of players. When searching with this attribute, the search value must be true
or
false
. It is highly recommended that all search requests include this filter attribute to optimize
search performance and return only sessions that players can join.
To search or sort, specify either a fleet ID or an alias ID, and provide a search filter expression, a sort expression, or both. Use the pagination parameters to retrieve results as a set of sequential pages. If successful, a collection of GameSession objects matching the request is returned.
Returned values for playerSessionCount
and hasAvailablePlayerSessions
change quickly as
players join sessions and others drop out. Results should be considered a snapshot in time. Be sure to refresh
search results often, and handle sessions that fill up before a player can join.

Updates capacity settings for a fleet. Use this action to specify the number of EC2 instances (hosts) that you want this fleet to contain. Before calling this action, you may want to call DescribeEC2InstanceLimits to get the maximum capacity based on the fleet's EC2 instance type.
If you're using autoscaling (see PutScalingPolicy), you may want to specify a minimum and/or maximum capacity. If you don't provide these, autoscaling can set capacity anywhere between zero and the service limits.
To update fleet capacity, specify the fleet ID and the number of instances you want the fleet to host. If successful, Amazon GameLift starts or terminates instances so that the fleet's active instance count matches the desired instance count. You can view a fleet's current capacity information by calling DescribeFleetCapacity. If the desired instance count is higher than the instance type's limit, the "Limit Exceeded" exception occurs.

Updates the current runtime configuration for the specified fleet, which tells GameLift how to launch server
processes on instances in the fleet. You can update a fleet's runtime configuration at any time after the fleet
is created; it does not need to be in an ACTIVE
status.
To update runtime configuration, specify the fleet ID and provide a RuntimeConfiguration
object with
the updated collection of server process configurations.
Each instance in a GameLift fleet checks regularly for an updated runtime configuration and changes how it launches server processes to comply with the latest version. Existing server processes are not affected by the update; they continue to run until they end, while GameLift simply adds new server processes to fit the current runtime configuration. As a result, the runtime configuration changes are applied gradually as existing processes shut down and new processes are launched in GameLift's normal process recycling activity.
