Viewing an aggregated list of Amazon Q Developer subscriptions
Note
This section does not apply to personal accounts (Builder IDs).
If you are a management account administrator within an organization managed by AWS Organizations, you can configure Amazon Q to display Amazon Q Developer Pro subscriptions from both management and member accounts in a single, unified list on the Subscriptions page of the Amazon Q console (not the Amazon Q Developer console) while signed in to your management account. This organization-wide visibility eliminates the need to sign in to multiple accounts to track your subscriptions.
Note
Unified subscription information also appears on the Dashboard page of the Amazon Q Developer console when you enable organization-wide visibility.
If you are a member account administrator, you will only ever be able to view the subscriptions within the member accounts that you administer. This is true regardless of whether organization-wide visibility was enabled in the management account.
To enable organization-wide visibility of Amazon Q Developer subscriptions, you must enable trusted access to Amazon Q in your organization. Trusted access is an AWS Organizations feature that lets you designate Amazon Q as a trusted service that is allowed to query your organization's structure. This querying is required in order to show the status of subscriptions.
To learn more about trusted access, see Enabling trusted access for AWS Account Management in the AWS Organizations User Guide.
To learn more about member and management accounts, see Terminology and concepts for AWS Organizations in the AWS Organizations User Guide for explanations.
Use the following instructions to enable trusted access to Amazon Q in your organization.
Prerequisites
Before you begin, make sure that:
-
You are an administrator of an AWS management account.
-
You have an organization instance of IAM Identity Center set up in your management account and connected to Amazon Q Developer.
-
Your organization instance of IAM Identity Center contains users who are subscribed to Amazon Q Developer Pro in member accounts.
-
You have the minimum permissions required to perform actions in the Amazon Q or Amazon Q Developer console (you can use either console to enable trusted access). For more information, see Allow administrators to use the Amazon Q console and Allow administrators to use the Amazon Q Developer console.
To enable trusted access (enable organization-wide visibility of subscriptions)
-
Sign in to the AWS Management Console using your AWS management account.

Do one of the following depending on the console you want to use:
-

Choose Save.
Trusted access to Amazon Q is now enabled. Users and groups who are subscribed in member accounts now appear in the Amazon Q console (not the Amazon Q Developer console) when you're signed in as a management account administrator.
