    Hello, I have a question, I got auth token using token-exchange Rest API, so I have ability to create simple tickets, but I can't find right way to authorize to make actions with backfill tickets. As I understand, when I will have backfill ticket id, I should approve it, so I wanna use Rest Api for this action. Also, I could have a wrong view and it can't be done by Rest, could you confirm it?
    Thank you for feedback!

    Okay, how could I find GameServerHosting ip? Could you please help to understand, do I need to configure something, or just use already hosted service?

    A few things here,
    If backfill is enabled on the matchmaker configuration, if a server starts and is not full, matchmaker creates a backfill ticket automatically. No need to create one yourself.
    The server when it starts can get the information of the backfill through the matchmaking result (see here: https://docs.unity.com/matchmaker/manual/integrations#Matchmaking_results)
    In those matchmaking result, there is a backfill ticket id, you should just approve this one and ticket will be directly assigned to the server associated to that backfill ticket.

    When approving a backfill ticket, the API returns the updated backfill ticket with all the players added to the match.

    On another hand, the server.json file on the Multiplay server contains the IP:port for the server. See here https://docs.unity.com/game-server-hosting/en/manual/concepts/server-json

    I hope that helps !
