Request Syntax URI Request Parameters Request Body Response Syntax Response Elements Errors Examples See Also

InvokeModel

Invokes the specified Amazon Bedrock model to run inference using the prompt and inference parameters provided in the request body. You use model inference to generate text, images, and embeddings.

For example code, see Invoke model code examples.

This operation requires permission for the bedrock:InvokeModel action.

Important

To deny all inference access to resources that you specify in the modelId field, you need to deny access to the bedrock:InvokeModel and bedrock:InvokeModelWithResponseStream actions. Doing this also denies access to the resource through the Converse API actions (Converse and ConverseStream). For more information see Deny access for inference on specific models.

For troubleshooting some of the common errors you might encounter when using the InvokeModel API, see Troubleshooting Amazon Bedrock API Error Codes in the Amazon Bedrock User Guide

URI Request Parameters

The request uses the following URI parameters.

accept

The desired MIME type of the inference body in the response. The default value is application/json.

contentType

The MIME type of the input data in the request. You must specify application/json.

guardrailIdentifier

The unique identifier of the guardrail that you want to use. If you don't provide a value, no guardrail is applied to the invocation.

An error will be thrown in the following situations.

You don't provide a guardrail identifier but you specify the amazon-bedrock-guardrailConfig field in the request body.
You enable the guardrail but the contentType isn't application/json.
You provide a guardrail identifier, but guardrailVersion isn't specified.

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 0. Maximum length of 2048.

Pattern: ^(([a-z0-9]+)|(arn:aws(-[^:]+)?:bedrock:[a-z0-9-]{1,20}:[0-9]{12}:guardrail/[a-z0-9]+))$

guardrailVersion

The version number for the guardrail. The value can also be DRAFT.

Pattern: ^(([1-9][0-9]{0,7})|(DRAFT))$

modelId

The unique identifier of the model to invoke to run inference.

The modelId to provide depends on the type of model or throughput that you use:

If you use a base model, specify the model ID or its ARN. For a list of model IDs for base models, see Amazon Bedrock base model IDs (on-demand throughput) in the Amazon Bedrock User Guide.
If you use an inference profile, specify the inference profile ID or its ARN. For a list of inference profile IDs, see Supported Regions and models for cross-region inference in the Amazon Bedrock User Guide.
If you use a provisioned model, specify the ARN of the Provisioned Throughput. For more information, see Run inference using a Provisioned Throughput in the Amazon Bedrock User Guide.
If you use a custom model, first purchase Provisioned Throughput for it. Then specify the ARN of the resulting provisioned model. For more information, see Use a custom model in Amazon Bedrock in the Amazon Bedrock User Guide.
If you use an imported model, specify the ARN of the imported model. You can get the model ARN from a successful call to CreateModelImportJob or from the Imported models page in the Amazon Bedrock console.

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 2048.

Pattern: ^(arn:aws(-[^:]+)?:bedrock:[a-z0-9-]{1,20}:(([0-9]{12}:custom-model/[a-z0-9-]{1,63}[.]{1}[a-z0-9-]{1,63}/[a-z0-9]{12})|(:foundation-model/[a-z0-9-]{1,63}[.]{1}[a-z0-9-]{1,63}([.:]?[a-z0-9-]{1,63}))|([0-9]{12}:imported-model/[a-z0-9]{12})|([0-9]{12}:provisioned-model/[a-z0-9]{12})|([0-9]{12}:(inference-profile|application-inference-profile)/[a-zA-Z0-9-:.]+)))|([a-z0-9-]{1,63}[.]{1}[a-z0-9-]{1,63}([.:]?[a-z0-9-]{1,63}))|(([0-9a-zA-Z][_-]?)+)|([a-zA-Z0-9-:.]+)$|(^(arn:aws(-[^:]+)?:bedrock:[a-z0-9-]{1,20}:[0-9]{12}:prompt/[0-9a-zA-Z]{10}(?::[0-9]{1,5})?))$|(^arn:aws:sagemaker:[a-z0-9-]+:[0-9]{12}:endpoint/[a-zA-Z0-9-]+$)|(^arn:aws(-[^:]+)?:bedrock:([0-9a-z-]{1,20}):([0-9]{12}):default-prompt-router/[a-zA-Z0-9-:.]+$)$
