Creating an Amazon Q index on behalf of a customer

Creating an Amazon Q index on behalf of a customer - Amazon Q Business

We recommend creating one Amazon Q Business application environment per customer for better security and data segregation. Alternatively, you can create one Amazon Q Business application environment and share it with multiple customers. This is only recommended when you index documents that are visible to all users in your application.

After the Amazon Q Business application environment is created, set up the retriever and connect the data sources. For a complete list of data source connectors,see supported connectors. You will need your customers to provide the relevant credentials for each connector that you intend to retrieve data from. For more information, see Creating a retriever for an Amazon Q Business application and Connecting Amazon Q Business data sources.
