Amazon Bedrock now supports server-side tools in the Responses API using OpenAI API-compatible service endpoints. Bedrock already supports client-side tool use with the Converse, Chat Completions, and Responses APIs. Now, with the launch of server-side tool use for Responses API, Amazon Bedrock calls the tools directly without going through a client, enabling your AI applications to perform real-time, multi-step actions such as searching the web, executing code, and updating databases within the organizational, governance, compliance, and security boundaries of your AWS accounts. You can either submit your own custom Lambda function to run custom tools or use AWS-provided tools, such as notes and tasks.
Server-side tools using the Responses API is available starting today with OpenAI’s GPT OSS 20B/120B models in US East (N. Virginia), US East (Ohio), US West (Oregon), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), South America (São Paulo), Europe (Ireland), Europe (London), and Europe (Milan) AWS Regions. Support for other regions and models is coming soon.
