General setup flow

All provider guides follow this general flow:

  1. Configure provider policies and settings - Some providers (like AWS Bedrock) require additional configuration in the provider's console before you can use them with Port. This step is optional for providers that only need API keys.
  2. Store API keys in secrets - Store your provider credentials securely in Port's secrets system. See Step 2: Store API Keys in Secrets in the main setup guide.
  3. Register the provider - Use the Create or connect an LLM provider API to configure and validate your provider connection.
  4. Set as default - Optionally set your provider as the organization default using the UI (BuilderOrganization SettingsAI tab) or the Change default LLM provider and model API.
