I uploaded the source code
https://drive.google.com/file/d/17mHF83gp5cBAYQEgsgKfRk712pOAkfNe/view?usp=sharing

folders:
V2Testing - contains an expressJS and the website that loads the bundle.js, It was named V2 as I was testing V2 min.js before.
V3 - is the standalone nodejs application to test it
WebpackTestingV3 - contains the nodejs + webpacked items

Observed behavior

error 'Credentials missing' in browser while in straight up nodejs test it is succesful.
I changed implementation to use the AWS.Credentials and now im getting the "TypeError: Failed to fetch".

Expected behavior

It should behave similar to nodejs.

Hi @ruellm

I think this should be a v2 SDk question not v3 one. In the code snippet, I find you set the credential incorrectly: the credentials should be supplied to the credentials parameter of the constroctor options hash:

const gamelift = new AWS.GameLiftClient({
        endpoint : 'http://localhost:9080',
        credentials: {
                accessKeyId :'abcde',
                secretAccessKey:'abcde',
        },
        region:'us-west-2'
});
