Since there’s community interest in how to set up AWS to use the new Amazon Nova models, here’s a step-by-step guide to get everyone started:

1. Ensure you have model access:
   1. open Bedrock in us-west-2 region, scroll down in the menu on the left, and hit Model Access:
   2. Check model selection (green arrow), request models if access not yet granted (red arrow)
2. Open IAM -> Create user
3. Name user
4. Attach policy directly, create new policy
5. Switch to JSON view, paste pre-made policy (JSON code block below at the end of this post):
6. Hit Next
7. Name policy, hit Create Policy
8. Close this tab, return to IAM user creation tab
9. Refresh table, search for newly created policy, tick box, hit Next
10. Hit Create User
11. Open new IAM user by clicking its link
12. Create Access Key
13. Choose “Local Code”, Confirm “I understand…”, Hit Next
14. Create Access Key
15. Copy both values - these are your access credentials
16. Visit my Amazon Bedrock Chat space on HuggingFace, paste Credentials, choose Nova Pro model
    1. Source code also available on Github
17. Enjoy

Policy JSON:

    "Version": "2012-10-17",
    "Statement": [
        {
            "Sid": "VisualEditor0",
            "Effect": "Allow",
            "Action": [
                "bedrock:GetUseCaseForModelAccess",
                "bedrock:GetFoundationModelAvailability",
                "bedrock:InvokeModel",
                "bedrock:ListCustomModels",
                "bedrock:ListFoundationModelAgreementOffers",
                "bedrock:GetFoundationModel",
                "bedrock:InvokeModelWithResponseStream",
                "bedrock:GetCustomModel",
                "bedrock:ListFoundationModels"
            ],
            "Resource": "*"
        }
    ]
}

Other notes:

• Pelicane SVGs have been updated: Pelicane-on-a-bike gallery
• other models do implicit spell-correction in OCR use cases (via Eleanor Berger). Nova Pro doesn’t?
• unreleased advanced Plan like a Graph use case doesn’t work, so not really “GPT-4 class” as alleged by Amazon?
