Cannot find unreal plugin

According to the documentation: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/gamelift/latest/developerguide/integration-engines-setup-unreal.html The plugin is inside the Getting started managed servers SDK, download. But I only see "GameLift-Cpp-ServerSDK-5.0.0" and "GameLift-CSharp-ServerSDK-5.0.0"

You should be able to build the plugin on your local machine by following the instructions here https://docs.aws.amazon.com/gamelift/latest/developerguide/integration-engines-setup-unreal.html . Give it a go and let us know please if you have any issues.

UPDATE1

I've tested myself and indeed there is a problem. I'm raising the issue internally

UPDATE2

The team is working with urgency to fix the problem. In the meanwhile please use the previous version https://gamelift-release.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/GameLift_06_03_2021.zip

Point 3 of this documentation: Add the binaries to the GameLift plugin files. Open the directory for the plugin version of UE4 that you are working with (for example, GameLift-SDK-Release-3.3.3\GameLift-Unreal-plugin-3.3.3\UE4.25\GameLiftServerSDK). Copy the binary files that you created in Step 2 into the ThirdParty directory of the Unreal plugin: There is no plugin.

When I run cmake -G "Visual Studio 16 2019" -A x64 -DBUILD_FOR_UNREAL=1 .. and then msbuild ALL_BUILD.vcxproj /p:Configuration=Release'

Then I get 267 Errors of LNK2019, unresolved external symbol

It actually appears that two different links on https://aws.amazon.com/gamelift/getting-started/ link to two different places currently. The "Download Now" button links to https://gamelift-release.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/GameLift-SDK-Release-5.0.0.zip which has 5.0.0 and does not contain the Unreal plugin, like OP said.

The box title "GameLift Managed Servers SDK" links to https://gamelift-release.s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/GameLift_06_03_2021.zip, which contains the 4.0.2 release of the SDK and 3.4.0 of the Unreal plugin.

However, version 3.4.0 of the plugin won't link with 5.0.0 binaries.
