AWS Bedrock

Anthropic, Amazon Titan, A121 LLMs are Supported on Bedrock

Pre-Requisites​

LiteLLM requires boto3 to be installed on your system for Bedrock requests

pip install boto3>=1.28.57

Required Environment Variables​

os.environ["AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID"] = ""  # Access key
os.environ["AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY"] = "" # Secret access key
os.environ["AWS_REGION_NAME"] = "" # us-east-1, us-east-2, us-west-1, us-west-2

Usage​

Open In Colab
import os
from litellm import completion

os.environ["AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID"] = ""
os.environ["AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY"] = ""
os.environ["AWS_REGION_NAME"] = ""

response = completion(
  model="bedrock/anthropic.claude-instant-v1",
  messages=[{ "content": "Hello, how are you?","role": "user"}]
)

Usage - "Assistant Pre-fill"​

If you're using Anthropic's Claude with Bedrock, you can "put words in Claude's mouth" by including an assistant role message as the last item in the messages array.

[!IMPORTANT] The returned completion will not include your "pre-fill" text, since it is part of the prompt itself. Make sure to prefix Claude's completion with your pre-fill.

import os
from litellm import completion

os.environ["AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID"] = ""
os.environ["AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY"] = ""
os.environ["AWS_REGION_NAME"] = ""

messages = [
    {"role": "user", "content": "How do you say 'Hello' in German? Return your answer as a JSON object, like this:\n\n{ \"Hello\": \"Hallo\" }"},
    {"role": "assistant", "content": "{"},
]
response = completion(model="bedrock/anthropic.claude-v2", messages=messages)

Example prompt sent to Claude​


Human: How do you say 'Hello' in German? Return your answer as a JSON object, like this:

{ "Hello": "Hallo" }

Assistant: {

Usage - "System" messages​

If you're using Anthropic's Claude 2.1 with Bedrock, system role messages are properly formatted for you.

import os
from litellm import completion

os.environ["AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID"] = ""
os.environ["AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY"] = ""
os.environ["AWS_REGION_NAME"] = ""

messages = [
    {"role": "system", "content": "You are a snarky assistant."},
    {"role": "user", "content": "How do I boil water?"},
]
response = completion(model="bedrock/anthropic.claude-v2:1", messages=messages)

Example prompt sent to Claude​

You are a snarky assistant.

Human: How do I boil water?

Assistant:

Boto3 - Authentication​

Passing credentials as parameters - Completion()​

Pass AWS credentials as parameters to litellm.completion

import os
from litellm import completion

response = completion(
            model="bedrock/anthropic.claude-instant-v1",
            messages=[{ "content": "Hello, how are you?","role": "user"}],
            aws_access_key_id="",
            aws_secret_access_key="",
            aws_region_name="",
)

Passing an external BedrockRuntime.Client as a parameter - Completion()​

Pass an external BedrockRuntime.Client object as a parameter to litellm.completion. Useful when using an AWS credentials profile, SSO session, assumed role session, or if environment variables are not available for auth.

Create a client from session credentials:

import boto3
from litellm import completion

bedrock = boto3.client(
            service_name="bedrock-runtime",
            region_name="us-east-1",
            aws_access_key_id="",
            aws_secret_access_key="",
            aws_session_token="",
)

response = completion(
            model="bedrock/anthropic.claude-instant-v1",
            messages=[{ "content": "Hello, how are you?","role": "user"}],
            aws_bedrock_client=bedrock,
)

Create a client from AWS profile in ~/.aws/config:

import boto3
from litellm import completion

dev_session = boto3.Session(profile_name="dev-profile")
bedrock = dev_session.client(
            service_name="bedrock-runtime",
            region_name="us-east-1",
)

response = completion(
            model="bedrock/anthropic.claude-instant-v1",
            messages=[{ "content": "Hello, how are you?","role": "user"}],
            aws_bedrock_client=bedrock,
)

SSO Login (AWS Profile)​

  • Set AWS_PROFILE environment variable
  • Make bedrock completion call 
import os
from litellm import completion

response = completion(
            model="bedrock/anthropic.claude-instant-v1",
            messages=[{ "content": "Hello, how are you?","role": "user"}]
)

STS based Auth​

  • Set aws_role_name and aws_session_name in completion() / embedding() function

Make the bedrock completion call 

from litellm import completion

response = completion(
            model="bedrock/anthropic.claude-instant-v1",
            messages=messages,
            max_tokens=10,
            temperature=0.1,
            aws_role_name=aws_role_name,
            aws_session_name="my-test-session",
        )

If you also need to dynamically set the aws user accessing the role, add the additional args in the completion()/embedding() function

from litellm import completion

response = completion(
            model="bedrock/anthropic.claude-instant-v1",
            messages=messages,
            max_tokens=10,
            temperature=0.1,
            aws_region_name=aws_region_name,
            aws_access_key_id=aws_access_key_id,
            aws_secret_access_key=aws_secret_access_key,
            aws_role_name=aws_role_name,
            aws_session_name="my-test-session",
        )

Provisioned throughput models​

To use provisioned throughput Bedrock models pass

  • model=bedrock/<base-model>, example model=bedrock/anthropic.claude-v2. Set model to any of the Supported AWS models
  • model_id=provisioned-model-arn

Completion

import litellm
response = litellm.completion(
    model="bedrock/anthropic.claude-instant-v1",
    model_id="provisioned-model-arn",
    messages=[{"content": "Hello, how are you?", "role": "user"}]
)

Embedding

import litellm
response = litellm.embedding(
    model="bedrock/amazon.titan-embed-text-v1",
    model_id="provisioned-model-arn",
    input=["hi"],
)
