describe_fleet_attributes

GameLift.Client.describe_fleet_attributes(**kwargs)

Retrieves core fleet-wide properties, including the computing hardware and deployment configuration for all instances in the fleet.

This operation can be used in the following ways:

  • To get attributes for one or more specific fleets, provide a list of fleet IDs or fleet ARNs.
  • To get attributes for all fleets, do not provide a fleet identifier.

When requesting attributes for multiple fleets, use the pagination parameters to retrieve results as a set of sequential pages.

If successful, a FleetAttributes object is returned for each fleet requested, unless the fleet identifier is not found.

Note

Some API operations limit the number of fleet IDs that allowed in one request. If a request exceeds this limit, the request fails and the error message contains the maximum allowed number.

    ],
    Limit=123,
    NextToken='string'
)
Parameters
  • FleetIds (list) --

    A list of unique fleet identifiers to retrieve attributes for. You can use either the fleet ID or ARN value. To retrieve attributes for all current fleets, do not include this parameter.

    • (string) --
  • Limit (integer) -- The maximum number of results to return. Use this parameter with NextToken to get results as a set of sequential pages. This parameter is ignored when the request specifies one or a list of fleet IDs.

        • ServerLaunchParameters (string) --

          This parameter is no longer used. Server launch parameters are now defined using the fleet's runtime configuration . Requests that use this parameter instead continue to be valid.

        • LogPaths (list) --

          • NewGameSessionsPerCreator (integer) --

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

        • InstanceRoleArn (string) --

          A unique identifier for an IAM role that manages access to your Amazon Web Services services. With an instance role ARN set, any application that runs on an instance in this fleet can assume the role, including install scripts, server processes, and daemons (background processes). Create a role or look up a role's ARN by using the IAM dashboard in the Amazon Web Services Management Console. Learn more about using on-box credentials for your game servers at Access external resources from a game server.

        • CertificateConfiguration (dict) --

          Determines whether a TLS/SSL certificate is generated for a fleet. This feature must be enabled when creating the fleet. All instances in a fleet share the same certificate. The certificate can be retrieved by calling the GameLift Server SDK operation GetInstanceCertificate .

          • CertificateType (string) --

            Indicates whether a TLS/SSL certificate is generated for a fleet.

            Valid values include:

            • GENERATED - Generate a TLS/SSL certificate for this fleet.
            • DISABLED - (default) Do not generate a TLS/SSL certificate for this fleet.
        • ComputeType (string) --
