Configuring an Amazon Q Business application
As the first step towards creating a generative artificial intelligence (AI) assistant, you configure an application environment. Then, you select and create a retriever, and also connect any data sources. After this, you grant end user access to users to interact with an application using AWS IAM Identity Center for user management.
Your authorized users interact with your application environment through the web experience. You share the endpoint URL of your web experience with your users, who open the URL and are authenticated before they can start asking questions in your assistant application environment. The endpoint URL can be found in your web experience settings when selecting your application environmentin the console.
This section guides you through the process of creating and configuring an Amazon Q Business application environment. To create an application environment, you can use the Amazon Q Business console, the AWS Command Line Interface (AWS CLI), and the Amazon Q Business API operations.
As a prerequisite, make sure that you complete the setting up tasks and go through the Before you begin section. If you're using the AWS CLI or the API, make sure that you created the required IAM roles.
After you finish creating your application environment, you can customize and preview the web experience that it will power.
