AWS launches Web Search API for Amazon Bedrock AgentCore

AWS says the Web Search API in Amazon Bedrock AgentCore is now available. Agents and applications get current web results from a single call signed with the AWS credentials they already use, so there is no search API key to store or rotate. AWS serves each query from a web index that Amazon operates rather than sending it to a third-party search engine. Results carry a page title, URL, publication date and a query-relevant extract, and requests can include or exclude domains or limit results to a date range. The API works from Lambda, Amazon ECS and the AgentCore runtime, and is also offered through AgentCore Gateway, where one administrator source policy applies to every agent and MCP client. For LangChain developers, the AgentCore web search tool in LangChain's AWS integration calls the API. Search and model calls are billed per use.

Why it matters

Teams can give agents live web results with citations while keeping search queries inside their own AWS environment, and administrators can enforce source rules that the model cannot change.
