GetComputeAccess
Requests authorization to remotely connect to a hosting resource in a Amazon GameLift managed fleet. This operation is not used with Amazon GameLift Anywhere fleets.
Request options
To request access to a compute, specify the compute name and the fleet ID.
Results
If successful, this operation returns a set of temporary AWS credentials, including a two-part access key and a session token.
-
With a managed EC2 fleet (where compute type is
EC2
), use these credentials with Amazon EC2 Systems Manager (SSM) to start a session with the compute. For more details, see Starting a session (AWS CLI) in the Amazon EC2 Systems Manager User Guide. -
With a managed container fleet, use these credentials and the target value with SSM to connect to the fleet instance where the container is running. When connected to the instance, use Docker commands to interact with the container using the container name and runtime ID.

Request Parameters
For information about the parameters that are common to all actions, see Common Parameters.
The request accepts the following data in JSON format.
Note
In the following list, the required parameters are described first.
- ComputeName
-
A unique identifier for the compute resource that you want to connect to. For an EC2 fleet compute, use the instance ID. For a container fleet, use the compute name. Use ListCompute to retrieve compute identifiers.
Type: String
Length Constraints: Maximum length of 1024.
Pattern:
^[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+(\/[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+)?$|^arn:.*:compute\/[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+(\/[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+)?
Required: Yes
- FleetId
-
A unique identifier for the fleet that holds the compute resource that you want to connect to. You can use either the fleet ID or ARN value.
Type: String
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 512.
Pattern:
^[a-z]*fleet-[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+$|^arn:.*:[a-z]*fleet\/[a-z]*fleet-[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+$
Required: Yes

Response Elements
If the action is successful, the service sends back an HTTP 200 response.
The following data is returned in JSON format by the service.
- ComputeArn
-
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) that is assigned to an Amazon GameLift compute resource and uniquely identifies it. ARNs are unique across all Regions. Format is
arn:aws:gamelift:<region>::compute/compute-a1234567-b8c9-0d1e-2fa3-b45c6d7e8912
.Type: String
Length Constraints: Maximum length of 1024.
Pattern:
^arn:.*:compute\/[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+(\/[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+)?
- ComputeName
-
The identifier of the compute resource to be accessed. This value might be either a compute name or an instance ID.
Type: String
Length Constraints: Maximum length of 1024.
Pattern:
^[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+(\/[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+)?$|^arn:.*:compute\/[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+(\/[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+)?
- ContainerIdentifiers
-
For a managed container fleet, a list of containers on the compute. Use the container runtime ID with Docker commands to connect to a specific container.
Type: Array of ContainerIdentifier objects
Array Members: Minimum number of 1 item. Maximum number of 10 items.
- Credentials
-
A set of temporary AWS credentials for use when connecting to the compute resource with Amazon EC2 Systems Manager (SSM).
Type: AwsCredentials object
- FleetArn
-
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) that is assigned to a Amazon GameLift fleet resource and uniquely identifies it. ARNs are unique across all Regions. Format is
arn:aws:gamelift:<region>::fleet/fleet-a1234567-b8c9-0d1e-2fa3-b45c6d7e8912
.Type: String
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 512.
Pattern:
^arn:.*:[a-z]*fleet\/[a-z]*fleet-[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+$
- FleetId
-
The ID of the fleet that holds the compute resource to be accessed.
Type: String
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 512.
Pattern:
^[a-z]*fleet-[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+$|^arn:.*:[a-z]*fleet\/[a-z]*fleet-[a-zA-Z0-9\-]+$
- Target
-
The instance ID where the compute resource is running.
Type: String
Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 400.
