Overview

Properties describing a game session.

A game session in ACTIVE status can host players. When a game session ends, its status is set to TERMINATED.

Once the session ends, the game session object is retained for 30 days. This means you can reuse idempotency token values after this time. Game session logs are retained for 14 days.

Returns:

  • (Time) —

    Time stamp indicating when this data object was created.

#creator_id ⇒ String

#current_player_session_count ⇒ Integer

Number of players currently in the game session.

Returns:

  • (Integer) —

    Number of players currently in the game session.

#dns_name ⇒ String

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.

Returns:

  • (String) —

    DNS identifier assigned to the instance that is running the game session.

#fleet_arn ⇒ String

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) associated with the GameLift fleet that this game session is running on.

#game_properties ⇒ Array<Types::GameProperty>

Set of custom properties for a game session, formatted as key:value pairs. These properties are passed to a game server process in the GameSession object with a request to start a new game session (see Start a Game Session). You can search for active game sessions based on this custom data with SearchGameSessions.

Returns:

  • (Array<Types::GameProperty>) —

    Set of custom properties for a game session, formatted as key:value pairs.

#game_session_data ⇒ String

Set of custom game session properties, formatted as a single string value. This data is passed to a game server process in the GameSession object with a request to start a new game session (see Start a Game Session).

Returns:

  • (String) —

    Set of custom game session properties, formatted as a single string value.

#game_session_id ⇒ String

A unique identifier for the game session. A game session ARN has the following format: arn:aws:gamelift:<region>::gamesession/<fleet ID>/<custom ID string or idempotency token>.

Returns:

  • (String) —

    A unique identifier for the game session.

#ip_address ⇒ String

IP address of the instance that is running the game session. When connecting to a Amazon GameLift game server, a client needs to reference an IP address (or DNS name) and port number.

Returns:

  • (String) —

    IP address of the instance that is running the game session.

#matchmaker_data ⇒ String

Information about the matchmaking process that was used to create the game session. It is in JSON syntax, formatted as a string.
