Amazon Bedrock Access Denied Errors Linked to AWS Marketplace Subscriptions

Developers encountering an AccessDeniedException when trying to use Amazon Bedrock models may be facing issues with AWS Marketplace permissions rather than Bedrock-specific IAM policies. The error, which indicates insufficient access to a model, often arises because Bedrock automatically initiates an AWS Marketplace subscription in the background upon the first invocation of a model. This process requires specific Marketplace permissions like `aws-marketplace:Subscribe`, `aws-marketplace:Unsubscribe`, and `aws-marketplace:ViewSubscriptions`, which are not covered by a general `bedrock:*` wildcard. These permissions are typically only needed for the initial model enablement, and issues can also stem from an invalid payment method or geolocation restrictions on the AWS account. AI
