RegisterCompute - Amazon GameLift
Services or capabilities described in Amazon Web Services documentation might vary by Region. To see the differences applicable to the China Regions, see Getting Started with Amazon Web Services in China (PDF).

RegisterCompute

Registers your compute resources in a fleet you previously created. After you register a compute to your fleet, you can monitor and manage your compute using Amazon GameLift. The operation returns the compute resource containing SDK endpoint you can use to connect your game server to Amazon GameLift.

Request Parameters

For information about the parameters that are common to all actions, see Common Parameters.

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

Note

In the following list, the required parameters are described first.

ComputeName

A descriptive label that is associated with the compute resource registered to your fleet.

Type: String

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 128.

Pattern: ^[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+

Required: Yes

The following data is returned in JSON format by the service.

Compute

The details of the compute resource you registered to the specified fleet.

Type: Compute object

Errors

For information about the errors that are common to all actions, see Common Errors.

Examples

Register your laptop as a testing compute resource

The following example registers a development laptop, with the IP address of 10.1.2.3.4, used for iterative testing to a fleet with the fleet id fleet-1234.

Sample Request

{ "FleetId": "fleet-1234", "ComputeName": "DevLaptop", "IpAddress": "10.1.2.3" }

Sample Response

{ FleetId = fleet-1234, ComputeName = DevLaptop, Status = ACTIVE, IpAddress = 10.1.2.3, GameLiftServiceSdkEndpoint = wss://12345678.execute-api.amazonaws.com/ }
