additionalEnvironmentVariables

A set of options that you can use to control the stream session runtime environment, expressed as a set of key-value pairs. You can use this to configure the application or stream session details. You can also provide custom environment variables that Amazon GameLift Streams passes to your game client.

If you want to debug your application with environment variables, we recommend that you do so in a local environment outside of Amazon GameLift Streams. For more information, refer to the Compatibility Guidance in the troubleshooting section of the Developer Guide.

AdditionalEnvironmentVariables and AdditionalLaunchArgs have similar purposes. AdditionalEnvironmentVariables passes data using environment variables; while AdditionalLaunchArgs passes data using command-line arguments.
