Customizing an Amazon Q Business web experience

Creating an Amazon Q Business application environment automatically creates a web experience with a shareable URL. Before you share your web experience URL, you can choose to customize it.

Note

As of Oct 31, 2024, once you have created a new Amazon Q Business application environment, the default web experience will allow users to interact directly with the LLM to get answers from its general knowledge or uploaded file content (available to Pro users only), even if the Admin has not yet connected any enterprise data sources.

For existing application environments, the Allow direct access to LLM setting will remain as previously configured. For new application environments, the Allow direct access to LLM setting will be enabled by default, though Admins can still disable this if desired.

You can customize a web experience by using either the AWS Management Console or the Amazon Q API. If you use the API, customizing your Amazon Q Business can involve a combination of the following API operations:

When you customize your web experience, you can personalize it by changing its title and subtitle, adding a welcome message, and displaying sample prompts.

Note

You can't run any chat queries from the web experience customize mode.

The following tabs provide a procedure for the AWS Management Console and code examples for the AWS CLI.
