Get started with Amazon Bedrock

To sign up for an AWS account

1. Open https://portal.aws.amazon.com/billing/signup.

2. Follow the online instructions.

   Part of the sign-up procedure involves receiving a phone call or text message and entering a verification code on the phone keypad.

   When you sign up for an AWS account, an AWS account root user is created. The root user has access to all AWS services and resources in the account. As a security best practice, assign administrative access to a user, and use only the root user to perform tasks that require root user access.

Secure your AWS account root user

1. Sign in to the AWS Management Console as the account owner by choosing Root user and entering your AWS account email address. On the next page, enter your password.

   For help signing in by using root user, see Signing in as the root user in the AWS Sign-In User Guide.

2. Turn on multi-factor authentication (MFA) for your root user.

   For instructions, see Enable a virtual MFA device for your AWS account root user (console) in the IAM User Guide.

Create a user with administrative access

1. Enable IAM Identity Center.

   For instructions, see Enabling AWS IAM Identity Center in the AWS IAM Identity Center User Guide.

2. In IAM Identity Center, grant administrative access to a user.

   For a tutorial about using the IAM Identity Center directory as your identity source, see Configure user access with the default IAM Identity Center directory in the AWS IAM Identity Center User Guide.

Sign in as the user with administrative access

• To sign in with your IAM Identity Center user, use the sign-in URL that was sent to your email address when you created the IAM Identity Center user.

  For help signing in using an IAM Identity Center user, see Signing in to the AWS access portal in the AWS Sign-In User Guide.

To create an Amazon Bedrock role

1. Create a role with a name of your choice by following the steps at Creating a role to delegate permissions to an IAM user in the IAM User Guide. When you reach the step to attach a policy to the role, attach the AmazonBedrockFullAccess AWS managed policy.

2. Create a new policy to allow your role to manage access to Amazon Bedrock models. From the following list, select the link that corresponds to your method of choice and follow the steps. Use the following JSON object as the policy.

   • Creating IAM policies (console)

   • Creating IAM policies (AWS CLI)

   • Creating IAM policies (AWS API)

   JSON

   {
       "Version":"2012-10-17",		 	 	 
       "Statement": [
           {
               "Sid": "MarketplaceBedrock",
               "Effect": "Allow",
               "Action": [
                   "aws-marketplace:ViewSubscriptions",
                   "aws-marketplace:Unsubscribe",
                   "aws-marketplace:Subscribe"
               ],
               "Resource": "*"
           }
       ]
   }
   

3. Attach the policy that you created in the last step to your Amazon Bedrock role by following the steps at Adding and removing IAM identity permissions.

To add users to the Amazon Bedrock role

1. For users to access an IAM role, you must add them to the role. You can add both users in your account or from other accounts. To grant users permissions to switch to the Amazon Bedrock role that you created, follow the steps at Granting a user permissions to switch roles and specify the Amazon Bedrock role as the Resource.

   Note

   If you need to create more users in your account so that you can give them access to the Amazon Bedrock role, follow the steps in Creating an IAM user in your AWS account.

2. After you've granted a user permissions to use the Amazon Bedrock role, provide the user with role name and ID or alias of the account to which the role belongs. Then, guide the user through how to switch to the role by following the instructions at Providing information to the user.
