Implement on-behalf-of token exchange for multi-tenant agents with Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Gateway
Key takeaways
  • Amazon Bedrock now supports OBO token exchange for multi-tenant agents via AgentCore Gateway.
  • The system integrates with Okta for identity management and applies JWT claim transformations for access control.
  • Audience binding in the token exchange process enhances security through layered defense mechanisms.
  • The implementation scales across tenants while maintaining fine-grained access control.
Full story

Amazon Web Services has introduced a new capability in Amazon Bedrock that allows developers to implement secure on-behalf-of (OBO) token exchange for multi-tenant agents. The feature is delivered through the AgentCore Gateway, which provides interceptors for fine-grained access control. The implementation guide demonstrates how to configure this system with Okta, showing the step-by-step process for setting up JSON Web Token (JWT) claim transformations across each hop in the authentication flow. This approach ensures defense in depth by binding audience claims, which scales effectively across multiple tenants without compromising security or performance.

Why this matters
Developers

Provides a secure, scalable way to build multi-tenant agents with fine-grained access control.

Businesses

Enables secure agent deployments across multiple customers or departments with centralized identity management.

Everyone

Advances secure multi-tenant AI agent architectures.
