# Amazon GameLift Streams introduces secure terminal access for stream sessions

**[AWS](https://daily.dev/sources/aws)** · 1 min read · 0 upvotes · 0 comments

## Summary

Amazon GameLift Streams now offers Stream Session Admin Shell, a secure terminal connection to live stream session runtime environments for real-time troubleshooting. Developers can inspect logs, query processes, check GPU utilization, and examine application state without managing SSH keys or open ports. Access is via the new CreateStreamSessionAdminShell API combined with the SSM Session Manager plugin for the AWS CLI. It supports Linux (Ubuntu 22.04), Proton, and Windows Server 2022 runtimes, is scoped to the application environment, auto-closes when the session ends, and is available at no additional cost in all supported AWS regions.
