# GameSessionConnectionInfo
<a name="API_GameSessionConnectionInfo"></a>

Connection information for a new game session that is created in response to a start matchmaking request. Once a match is made, the FlexMatch engine creates a new game session for it. This information, including the game session endpoint and player sessions for each player in the original matchmaking request, is added to the matchmaking ticket.
