Amazon Bedrock Managed Knowledge Base introduces user-managed setup for SharePoint, OneDrive, and Confluence data sources
AWS announces user-managed setup (3LO) for SharePoint, OneDrive, and Confluence data sources in Amazon Bedrock Managed Knowledge Base. Previously, configuring these data sources required generating 2LO credentials on the third-party side, which could be time-consuming and inaccessible for users who lack admin-level access to those systems. With user-managed setup, you simply sign in with your existing third-party credentials, and Amazon Bedrock Managed Knowledge Base handles authentication—allowing you to complete data source setup in just a few minutes.
This streamlined experience lowers the barrier to getting started with managed knowledge bases. Teams that want to quickly prototype an AI assistant grounded in their SharePoint documentation, OneDrive files, or Confluence wikis no longer need to coordinate with IT administrators to obtain service account credentials. User-managed setup complements the existing service account authentication, giving you a faster path to connect your data while still preserving the programmatic, enterprise-grade option for production workloads.
