Accepting and activating grants

After a grant has been distributed to a member account, the grant must be accepted and activated before the third-party Bedrock model can be used. The acceptance and activation workflow differs depending on your organization configuration.

For organizations with all features enabled

When you create a grant to a member account in an organization with all features enabled, the grant is automatically accepted and appears in a Disabled state. Either the grantor can activate the grant for all recipients, or each recipient can activate their own grant.

Console

To activate grants as the grantor (bulk activation)

  1. Sign in to your management account (or delegated administrator account).

  2. Open the AWS License Manager console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/license-manager/.

  3. In the navigation pane, choose Granted Licenses.

  4. Choose the grant you want to activate. For organization-wide grants, select the parent grant.

  5. Choose Activate.

  6. Confirm the activation.

This action activates the grant for all recipient accounts. You can verify individual account grant statuses on the grant details page by scrolling to the Grants section.

To activate grants as a recipient

  1. Sign in to the recipient member account.

  2. Open the AWS License Manager console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/license-manager/.

  3. Make sure you are in the us-east-1 Region.

  4. In the navigation pane, choose Granted Licenses.

  5. Choose the grant you want to activate.

  6. Choose Activate.

  7. Confirm the activation.

The grant status changes to Active, and users in your account can now invoke the third-party Bedrock model.

For organizations with consolidated billing only

If your organization uses consolidated billing without all features enabled, grants appear in a Pending Acceptance state in the recipient account. The recipient must first accept the grant, then activate it.

Console

To accept and activate a grant (consolidated billing organizations)

  1. Sign in to the recipient member account.

  2. Open the AWS License Manager console at https://console.aws.amazon.com/license-manager/.

  3. Make sure you are in the us-east-1 Region.

  4. In the navigation pane, choose Granted Licenses.

  5. Choose the grant you want to accept.

  6. Choose Accept & Activate to accept and activate the grant in one action.

    • Alternatively, choose Accept to accept the grant but keep it in Disabled state for future activation.

    • Or choose Reject to decline the license (this is a terminal state).

If you chose Accept, you must come back later and choose Activate to begin using the model.

API

You can activate grants programmatically using the CreateGrantVersion API.
