<p>Requests remote access to a fleet instance. Remote access is useful for debugging, gathering benchmarking data, or observing activity in real time. </p> <p>To remotely access an instance, you need credentials that match the operating system of the instance. For a Windows instance, Amazon GameLift returns a user name and password as strings for use with a Windows Remote Desktop client. For a Linux instance, Amazon GameLift returns a user name and RSA private key, also as strings, for use with an SSH client. The private key must be saved in the proper format to a <code>.pem</code> file before using. If you're making this request using the CLI, saving the secret can be handled as part of the <code>GetInstanceAccess</code> request, as shown in one of the examples for this operation. </p> <p>To request access to a specific instance, specify the IDs of both the instance and the fleet it belongs to.</p> <p> <b>Learn more</b> </p> <p> <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/gamelift/latest/developerguide/fleets-remote-access.html">Remotely Access Fleet Instances</a> </p> <p> <a href="https://docs.aws.amazon.com/gamelift/latest/developerguide/fleets-creating-debug.html">Debug Fleet Issues</a> </p>
