Retrieves a collection of fleet resources for this AWS account. You can filter the result set to find only those fleets that are deployed with a specific build or script. Use the pagination parameters to retrieve results in sequential pages.
Note
Fleet resources are not listed in a particular order.

list-fleets
is a paginated operation. Multiple API calls may be issued in order to retrieve the entire data set of results. You can disable pagination by providing the --no-paginate
argument.
When using --output text
and the --query
argument on a paginated response, the --query
argument must extract data from the results of the following query expressions: FleetIds
list-fleets
[--build-id <value>]
[--script-id <value>]
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--starting-token <value>]
[--page-size <value>]
[--max-items <value>]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]
[--cli-auto-prompt <value>]
--build-id
(string)
A unique identifier for a build to return fleets for. Use this parameter to return only fleets using a specified build. Use either the build ID or ARN value. To retrieve all fleets, do not include either a BuildId and ScriptID parameter.
--script-id
(string)
A unique identifier for a Realtime script to return fleets for. Use this parameter to return only fleets using a specified script. Use either the script ID or ARN value. To retrieve all fleets, leave this parameter empty.
--cli-input-json
| --cli-input-yaml
(string)
Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton
. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those 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. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml
.
--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 theNextToken
value in thestarting-token
argument of a subsequent command. Do not use theNextToken
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
. Similarly, if provided yaml-input
it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml
. If provided with the value output
, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.
--cli-auto-prompt
(boolean)
Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.
See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.
Example1: To get a list of all fleets in a Region
The following list-fleets
example displays the fleet IDs of all fleets in the current Region. This example uses pagination parameters to retrieve two fleet IDs at a time. The response includes a next-token
attribute, which indicates that there are more results to retrieve.
aws gamelift list-fleets \
--limit 2
Output:
{
"FleetIds": [
"fleet-a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111",
"fleet-a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE22222"
],
"NextToken": "eyJhd3NBY2NvdW50SWQiOnsicyI6IjMwMjc3NjAxNjM5OCJ9LCJidWlsZElkIjp7InMiOiJidWlsZC01NWYxZTZmMS1jY2FlLTQ3YTctOWI5ZS1iYjFkYTQwMjJEXAMPLE="
}
You can pass the NextToken
value from the previous response in the next command, as shown here to get the next two results.
aws gamelift list-fleets \
--limit 2 \
--next-token eyJhd3NBY2NvdW50SWQiOnsicyI6IjMwMjc3NjAxNjM5OCJ9LCJidWlsZElkIjp7InMiOiJidWlsZC00NDRlZjQxZS1hM2I1LTQ2NDYtODJmMy0zYzI4ZTgxNjVjEXAMPLE=
Example2: To get a list of all fleets in a Region with a specific build or script
The following list-builds
example retrieves the IDs of fleets that are deployed with the specified game build. If you’re working with Realtime Servers, you can provide a script ID in place of a build ID. Because this example does not specify the limit parameter, the results can include up to 16 fleet IDs.
aws gamelift list-fleets \
--build-id build-a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111
Output:
{
"FleetIds": [
"fleet-a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE22222",
"fleet-a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE33333",
"fleet-a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE44444"
]
}
FleetIds -> (list)
Set of fleet IDs matching the list request. You can retrieve additional information about all returned fleets by passing this result set to a call to DescribeFleetAttributes , DescribeFleetCapacity , or DescribeFleetUtilization .
(string)
NextToken -> (string)
Token that indicates where to resume retrieving results on the next call to this action. If no token is returned, these results represent the end of the list.
