aws gamelift describe-game-sessions
Retrieves a set of one or more game sessions in a specific fleet location. You can optionally filter the results by current game session status. Alternatively, use SearchGameSessions to request a set of active game sessions that are filtered by certain criteria. To retrieve the protection policy for game sessions, use DescribeGameSessionDetails. This operation can be used in the following ways: To retrieve all game sessions that are currently running on all locations in a fleet, provide a fleet or alias ID, with an optional status filter. This approach returns all game sessions in the fleet's home Region and all remote locations. To retrieve all game sessions that are currently running on a specific fleet location, provide a fleet or alias ID and a location name, with optional status filter. The location can be the fleet's home Region or any remote location. To retrieve a specific game session, provide the game session ID. This approach looks for the game session ID in all fleets that reside in the AWS Region defined in the request. Use the pagination parameters to retrieve results as a set of sequential pages. If successful, a GameSession object is returned for each game session that matches the request. Available in GameLift Local.

Options
| Name | Description |
|---|---|
--fleet-id <string> | A unique identifier for the fleet to retrieve game sessions for. You can use either the fleet ID or ARN value |
--game-session-id <string> | A unique identifier for the game session to retrieve |
--alias-id <string> | A unique identifier for the alias associated with the fleet to retrieve game sessions for. You can use either the alias ID or ARN value |
--location <string> | A fleet location to get game session details for. You can specify a fleet's home Region or a remote location. Use the AWS Region code format, such as us-west-2 |
--status-filter <string> | Game session status to filter results on. You can filter on the following states: ACTIVE, TERMINATED, ACTIVATING, and TERMINATING. The last two are transitory and used for only very brief periods of time |
--limit <integer> | The maximum number of results to return. Use this parameter with NextToken to get results as a set of sequential pages |
--next-token <string> | A token that indicates the start of the next sequential page of results. Use the token that is returned with a previous call to this operation. To start at the beginning of the result set, do not specify a value |
--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 |
--starting-token <string> | A token to specify where to start paginating. This is the NextToken from a previously truncated response. For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide |
--page-size <integer> | The size of each page to get in the AWS service call. This does not affect the number of items returned in the command's output. Setting a smaller page size results in more calls to the AWS service, retrieving fewer items in each call. This can help prevent the AWS service calls from timing out. For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide |
--max-items <integer> | The total number of items to return in the command's output. If the total number of items available is more than the value specified, a NextToken is provided in the command's output. To resume pagination, provide the NextToken value in the starting-token argument of a subsequent command. Do not use the NextToken response element directly outside of the AWS CLI. For usage examples, see Pagination in the AWS Command Line Interface User Guide |
--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 |
