Creating purpose-built Amazon Q Apps

Important

As of July 1, 2024, Amazon Q Apps are available only to Amazon Q Business Pro users. Amazon Q Business Lite users will no longer be able to create, run, or view Q Apps. To access, Q Apps, Lite users must upgrade to Amazon Q Business Pro.

As of August 30, 2024, all Amazon Q Apps created by Lite users who did not upgrade their account to Amazon Q Business Pro have been deleted.

You and your web experience users can create lightweight, purpose-built Amazon Q Apps within your broader Amazon Q Business application environment. Using your enterprise data, users can create a generative AI-powered app that streamlines their tasks. These Q Apps can be easily created by anyone at the click of a button, transforming their conversations with an Amazon Q Business assistant into reusable and shareable Amazon Q Apps.

For example, if your Amazon Q Business assistant generates useful content for all company employees, your marketing team could then create their own Amazon Q App for task automation. Let’s say a marketing team member finds a useful response to their question. The marketing team member can use that response or conversation and further build onto it to generate marketing content that adheres to the company's branding guidelines already known to Amazon Q Business.

Amazon Q Apps is enabled by default when you create a new Amazon Q Business application environment using IAM Identity Center or IAM Federation in the Amazon Q Business console. Amazon Q Apps can be accessed through the web experience.

You can also create and manage Q Apps programmatically. For an more information, see Amazon Q Apps in the Amazon Q Business API Reference.
