# AWS::GameLift::ContainerFleet GameSessionCreationLimitPolicy
<a name="aws-properties-gamelift-containerfleet-gamesessioncreationlimitpolicy"></a>

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 Servers checks that the player (identified by `CreatorId`) has created fewer than game session limit in the specified time period.
