Source-based practical guide

Update a chapter sample to use Claude 3.5 Sonnet

Adapt a sample that specifies Claude 3 Sonnet to use Claude 3.5 Sonnet, following the repository’s guidance.

Before you start

  • A chapter sample that specifies Claude 3 Sonnet.
  • Access to Amazon Bedrock in the Northern Virginia region.

Steps

  1. Following the book’s page 80 guidance, enable Claude 3.5 Sonnet in Bedrock in the Northern Virginia region.

  2. In the chapter sample code, replace the Claude 3 Sonnet model ID with anthropic.claude-3-5-sonnet-20240620-v1:0.

Expected outcome

The sample’s model ID is set to the Claude 3.5 Sonnet ID described in the repository guidance.

Guide limitations

  • The repository says the model may show an unavailable status; it suggests retrying later or contacting AWS Support.
  • As of the repository’s 2024-06-20 note, this model was supported for individual model calls through GUI or API, but not for advanced features such as knowledge bases or agents.
  • Model availability and procedures may change.
