Preflight Checklist

  • I have searched existing requests and this feature hasn't been requested yet
  • This is a single feature request (not multiple features)

Problem Statement

As an enterprise user, I access Claude through AWS Bedrock using my organization's AWS SSO (Single Sign-On) credentials. This works well for Claude Code, but the Claude.ai desktop and web applications have no equivalent — they require a separate Anthropic account and subscription.

The gap: My organization manages Claude access through AWS IAM and Bedrock. Individual team members authenticate via AWS SSO and are billed centrally through our AWS account. There is no way to bring that same identity and billing relationship into the claude.ai chat interface.

The request: Allow the Claude.ai desktop and web app to be configured with an AWS Bedrock endpoint and AWS credentials (including SSO/IAM roles), so enterprise users can access the full claude.ai experience — conversations, projects, artifacts — without requiring a separate Anthropic account or subscription.

This would mirror how many enterprise tools support multiple identity providers. AWS Bedrock is already the approved, centrally-managed path for Claude in our organization; the chat interface should be able to follow that same path.

TL;DR

To address the issue, the Claude.ai desktop and web applications should be updated to support authentication with AWS Bedrock endpoints and AWS credentials, including SSO/IAM roles.

Guidance

  • Investigate existing authentication mechanisms in Claude Code that utilize AWS SSO credentials to identify potential pathways for integration with the Claude.ai desktop and web applications.
  • Research industry standards for supporting multiple identity providers in enterprise tools to inform the design of the proposed solution.
  • Consider the security and billing implications of allowing AWS Bedrock authentication for the Claude.ai chat interface, ensuring that it aligns with the organization's centrally managed access and billing processes.
  • Evaluate the feasibility of implementing this feature as a configuration option within the Claude.ai applications, allowing enterprise users to input their AWS Bedrock endpoint and credentials.

Notes

The implementation details and technical requirements for integrating AWS Bedrock authentication with the Claude.ai desktop and web applications are not specified in the issue, and thus, a precise code example or step-by-step technical guide cannot be provided.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: While a full integration might require significant development, exploring temporary workarounds such as single sign-on solutions that can bridge AWS SSO with the Claude.ai applications could provide an interim solution, enhancing productivity for enterprise users.
