PlayFab & GameLift

Hi all,

we're trying to build our new multiplayer game using PlayFab and GameLift as game server. We would like to call some GameLift API from PlayFab script, but we have some issues with the authentication flow. have you ever done a gamelift API call from CloudScript? Is there something to read about this?

Thanks for your help.

Best regards!

Hi @andrearossini,

You can refer to this forum post for a bit of insight about using GameLift in conjunction with PlayFab:

(https://community.playfab.com/questions/9869/using-amazon-gamelift-with-playfab.html)

The documentation mentioned there about Using External Servers is now part of Microsoft docs. Additionally, PlayFab is rolling out an update to our matchmaking system, Servers 2.0 + Matchmaking (Preview), which was not available at the time of that post.

For a few useful details on CloudScript regarding server and client authentication, please see this post (https://community.playfab.com/questions/36127/server-api-and-client-api.html)

I hope this is enough to get you started. Feel free to let me know if I can provide any other information you need.
