Getting started in the Amazon Bedrock console

This section describes how to use the playgrounds in the AWS console to submit a text prompt to a Amazon Bedrock foundation model (FM) and generate a text or image response. Before you run the following examples, you should check that you have fulfilled the following prerequisites:

Prerequisites

  • You have an AWS account and have permissions to access a role in that account with the necessary permissions for Amazon Bedrock. Otherwise, follow the steps at I already have an AWS account.

  • You've requested access to the Amazon Titan Text G1 - Express and Amazon Titan Image Generator G1 models. Otherwise, follow the steps at Request access to a Amazon Bedrock foundation model.

  • You're in the US East (N. Virginia) (us-east-1) Region. To change regions, choose the Region name at the top right of the console, next to your IAM role. Then select US East (N. Virginia) (us-east-1).
