Request Syntax

response_iterator = paginator.paginate(
    GameSessionId='string',
    PlayerId='string',
    PlayerSessionId='string',
    PlayerSessionStatusFilter='string',
    PaginationConfig={
        'MaxItems': 123,
        'PageSize': 123,
        'StartingToken': 'string'
    }
)
Parameters:

  • GameSessionId (string) – A unique identifier for the game session to retrieve player sessions for.

  • PlayerId (string) – A unique identifier for a player to retrieve player sessions for.

  • PlayerSessionId (string) – A unique identifier for a player session to retrieve.

  • PlayerSessionStatusFilter (string) –

    Player session status to filter results on. Note that when a PlayerSessionId or PlayerId is provided in a DescribePlayerSessions request, then the PlayerSessionStatusFilter has no effect on the response.

    Possible player session statuses include the following:

    • RESERVED – The player session request has been received, but the player has not yet connected to the server process and/or been validated.

    • ACTIVE – The player has been validated by the server process and is currently connected.

    • COMPLETED – The player connection has been dropped.

    • TIMEDOUT – A player session request was received, but the player did not connect and/or was not validated within the timeout limit (60 seconds).

  • PaginationConfig (dict) –

    A dictionary that provides parameters to control pagination.

    • MaxItems (integer) –

      The total number of items to return. If the total number of items available is more than the value specified in max-items then a NextToken will be provided in the output that you can use to resume pagination.

    • PageSize (integer) –

      The size of each page.

    • StartingToken (string) –

      A token to specify where to start paginating. This is the NextToken from a previous response.

Return type:

dict

Response Structure

  • (dict) –

    • PlayerSessions (list) –

      A collection of objects containing properties for each player session that matches the request.

      • (dict) –

        Represents a player session. Player sessions are created either for a specific game session, or as part of a game session placement or matchmaking request. A player session can represents a reserved player slot in a game session (when status is RESERVED) or actual player activity in a game session (when status is ACTIVE). A player session object, including player data, is automatically passed to a game session when the player connects to the game session and is validated. After the game session ends, player sessions information is retained for 30 days and then removed.

        • PlayerSessionId (string) –

          A unique identifier for a player session.

        • PlayerId (string) –

          A unique identifier for a player that is associated with this player session.

        • GameSessionId (string) –

          A unique identifier for the game session that the player session is connected to.

        • FleetId (string) –

          A unique identifier for the fleet that the player’s game session is running on.

        • FleetArn (string) –

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

        • CreationTime (datetime) –

          A time stamp indicating when this data object was created. Format is a number expressed in Unix time as milliseconds (for example "1469498468.057").

        • TerminationTime (datetime) –

          A time stamp indicating when this data object was terminated. Format is a number expressed in Unix time as milliseconds (for example "1469498468.057").

        • Status (string) –

          Current status of the player session.

          Possible player session statuses include the following:

          • RESERVED – The player session request has been received, but the player has not yet connected to the server process and/or been validated.

          • ACTIVE – The player has been validated by the server process and is currently connected.

          • COMPLETED – The player connection has been dropped.

          • TIMEDOUT – A player session request was received, but the player did not connect and/or was not validated within the timeout limit (60 seconds).

        • IpAddress (string) –

          The IP address of the game session. To connect to a Amazon GameLift game server, an app needs both the IP address and port number.

        • DnsName (string) –

          The 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.

        • Port (integer) –

          Port number for the game session. To connect to a Amazon GameLift server process, an app needs both the IP address and port number.

        • PlayerData (string) –

          Developer-defined information related to a player. Amazon GameLift does not use this data, so it can be formatted as needed for use in the game.
