Hi, in order to spend our time as usefully as possible, I'd like to ask you to sign up for these services by the end of the day Friday:
We'll use AWS to generate your credentials and access the Amazon Bedrock LLMs
Your AWS user has been reset. Please log back in using the default password:
- URL: https://ceu-de.signin.aws.amazon.com/console
- Username: Your CEU email address in lowercase
- Password
CEUba2222
AWS will ask you to change your password once you log in. Please take note of your new password
Once you've logged in, click Security Credentials in your Profile (top-right corner) Create Access Key (use case: Other, no tags required) and save your Access Key and Secret access key.

OpenAI API We'll use OpenAI for Model Tracing - a debug interface about how Agents work
- Go to https://auth.openai.com/log-in
- Click Sign Up Once you log in:
- Organization name: Personal
- What best describes you: Student
- "I'll invite my team later."
- API key:
- Key name: CEU
- Project name: leave Default Project
- "Generate API key" -> copy and save your key
We'll need this for deploying agents to production URL: https://dashboard.render.com/register Use the GitHub signup option - this way, Render will have access to your GitHub repositories automatically.
We'll use EXA's Agentic MCP endpoint to let agents do a web search
- URL: https://exa.ai
- "Try API for free":

- You'll probably need to use a gmail address to sign up (at least I only succeeded with "Google Login")
- Select these:

- Choose "Compact"
- Copy and save your EXA API key. We'll need it in class.
You have all of these at hand:
- An AWS Access key and Secret Access Key
- An OpenAI API key
- An EXA API key
- Render.com registration using your GitHub Account
Thank you, and I am looking forward to seeing you on Monday! Zoltan
