aws gamelift create-player-session
Reserves an open player slot in a game session for a player. New player sessions can be created in any game session with an open slot that is in ACTIVE status and has a player creation policy of ACCEPT_ALL. You can add a group of players to a game session with CreatePlayerSessions. To create a player session, specify a game session ID, player ID, and optionally a set of player data. If successful, a slot is reserved in the game session for the player and a new PlayerSession object is returned with a player session ID. The player references the player session ID when sending a connection request to the game session, and the game server can use it to validate the player reservation with the GameLift service. Player sessions cannot be updated. Available in Amazon GameLift Local.

--player-id <string> | A unique identifier for a player. Player IDs are developer-defined |
--player-data <string> | Developer-defined information related to a player. GameLift does not use this data, so it can be formatted as needed for use in the game |
--cli-input-json <string> | Performs service operation based on the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by ``--generate-cli-skeleton``. If other arguments are provided on the command line, the CLI values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally |
--generate-cli-skeleton <string> | Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value ``input``, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for ``--cli-input-json``. If provided with the value ``output``, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command |
