Web search in flows
Amazon Quick Flows provides web search capabilities that allow you to retrieve current information from the internet. This feature enables your flows to access real-time data, news, and information beyond what's available in your organization's internal knowledge base.
Overview of web search in flows
Web search in Amazon Quick Flows allows you to incorporate internet search capabilities into your flows. This feature is particularly useful when you need to access current information, verify facts, or gather data from public sources. Web search uses a secure, managed search service that provides relevant results while maintaining privacy and security.
When you add a web search step to your flow, you can configure it to search for specific information based on user input or predefined queries. The search results can then be processed by subsequent steps in your flow, such as reasoning steps that analyze and summarize the information.
Adding web search to your flow
To add web search capabilities to your flow, follow these steps:
-
Open the Flow editor and navigate to the point where you want to add web search.
-
Click the "+" button to add a new step.
-
Select "Web Search" from the available step types.
-
Configure the search parameters as needed.
Once added, the web search step will appear in your flow's canvas. You can connect it to other steps to create a comprehensive workflow that leverages internet information.
Search results may vary over time as internet content changes. A Flow that works well today might return different results in the future.
Some content may not be accessible through web search due to various restrictions or the nature of the content.
