# AWS expands AgentCore support to OAuth servers without OpenID Connect

_Published Friday, November 13, 2026 at 3:18 PM EST · AI · Latest · Tier 2 — Notable_

AWS says Amazon Bedrock AgentCore Identity now supports authorization servers that use OAuth 2.0 without OpenID Connect, expanding the systems developers can connect to its agent infrastructure. Previously, the service accepted only OpenID Connect discovery URLs, excluding OAuth servers that publish their configuration metadata at a different location.

Developers can now use either discovery format when configuring authorization for incoming requests or providers that supply outgoing OAuth credentials. The feature carries no additional charge and is available in every AWS Region where AgentCore operates.
