update-build

Description

Updates metadata in a build resource, including the build name and version. To update the metadata, specify the build ID to update and provide the new values. If successful, a build object containing the updated metadata is returned.

Options

--build-id (string)

A unique identifier for the build to update. You can use either the build ID or ARN value.

--name (string)

A descriptive label that is associated with a build. Build names do not need to be unique.

--build-version (string)

Version information that is associated with a build or script. Version strings do not need to be unique.

--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.

--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. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.

Global Options

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command’s default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

  • json
  • text
  • table
  • yaml
  • yaml-stream

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

Turn on/off color output.

  • on
  • off
  • auto

--no-sign-request (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-binary-format (string)

The formatting style to be used for binary blobs. The default format is base64. The base64 format expects binary blobs to be provided as a base64 encoded string. The raw-in-base64-out format preserves compatibility with AWS CLI V1 behavior and binary values must be passed literally. When providing contents from a file that map to a binary blob fileb:// will always be treated as binary and use the file contents directly regardless of the cli-binary-format setting. When using file:// the file contents will need to properly formatted for the configured cli-binary-format.

  • base64
  • raw-in-base64-out

--no-cli-pager (boolean)

Disable cli pager for output.

--cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

--no-cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Disable automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

Examples

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

To update a custom game build

The following update-build example changes the name and version information that is associated with a specified build resource. The returned build object verifies that the changes were made successfully.

aws gamelift update-build \
    --build-id build-a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111 \
    --name MegaFrogRaceServer.NA.east \
    --build-version 12345.east

Output:

{
    "Build": {
        "BuildArn": "arn:aws:gamelift:us-west-2::build/build-a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111",
        "BuildId": "build-a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111",
        "CreationTime": 1496708916.18,
        "Name": "MegaFrogRaceServer.NA.east",
        "OperatingSystem": "AMAZON_LINUX_2",
        "SizeOnDisk": 1304924,
        "Status": "READY",
        "Version": "12345.east"
    }
}

Output

Build -> (structure)

The updated build resource.

BuildId -> (string)

A unique identifier for the build.

BuildArn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN ) that is assigned to a Amazon GameLift build resource and uniquely identifies it. ARNs are unique across all Regions. Format is arn:aws:gamelift:<region>::build/build-a1234567-b8c9-0d1e-2fa3-b45c6d7e8912 . In a GameLift build ARN, the resource ID matches the BuildId value.

Name -> (string)

A descriptive label that is associated with a build. Build names do not need to be unique. It can be set using CreateBuild or UpdateBuild .

Version -> (string)

Version information that is associated with a build or script. Version strings do not need to be unique.

Status -> (string)

Current status of the build.

Possible build statuses include the following:

  • INITIALIZED – A new build has been defined, but no files have been uploaded. You cannot create fleets for builds that are in this status. When a build is successfully created, the build status is set to this value.
  • READY – The game build has been successfully uploaded. You can now create new fleets for this build.
  • FAILED – The game build upload failed. You cannot create new fleets for this build.

SizeOnDisk -> (long)

File size of the uploaded game build, expressed in bytes. When the build status is INITIALIZED or when using a custom Amazon S3 storage location, this value is 0.

OperatingSystem -> (string)

Operating system that the game server binaries are built to run on. This value determines the type of fleet resources that you can use for this build.

Note

Amazon Linux 2 (AL2) will reach end of support on 6/30/2025. See more details in the Amazon Linux 2 FAQs . For game servers that are hosted on AL2 and use Amazon GameLift server SDK 4.x., first update the game server build to server SDK 5.x, and then deploy to AL2023 instances. See Migrate to Amazon GameLift server SDK version 5.

CreationTime -> (timestamp)

A time stamp indicating when this data object was created. Format is a number expressed in Unix time as milliseconds (for example "1469498468.057" ).

ServerSdkVersion -> (string)

The Amazon GameLift Server SDK version used to develop your game server.
