aws gamelift create-player-sessions
Reserves open slots in a game session for a group of players. 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. To add a single player to a game session, use CreatePlayerSession. To create player sessions, specify a game session ID and a list of player IDs. Optionally, provide a set of player data for each player ID. If successful, a slot is reserved in the game session for each player, and new PlayerSession objects are returned with player session IDs. Each player references their 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.

Options
Name | Description |
---|---|
--game-session-id <string> | A unique identifier for the game session to add players to |
--player-ids <list> | List of unique identifiers for the players to be added |
--player-data-map <map> | Map of string pairs, each specifying a player ID and a set of developer-defined information related to the player. Amazon GameLift does not use this data, so it can be formatted as needed for use in the game. Any player data strings for player IDs that are not included in the PlayerIds parameter are ignored |
--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 |
