![Warning](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-ai-generative_ai-264-0-0-production-enus/f8ef6498-d7b2-44e3-9b34-ffd5a850aae9/images/icon_warning.png)

Warning Turning off a model provider can stop Agentforce agents, prompt templates, and other generative AI features that use its models from running. Be sure to test and verify AI-enabled functionality in a sandbox org before you deploy it into production. Affected components can include (but aren’t limited to):

- Agentforce Agents
- Agent Actions
- Agentforce Testing Center
- Prompt templates
- APIs
- Email Summaries
- Knowledge Generation
- Service Replies
- Generative Campaigns
- Sales Summaries
- Agentforce API
- Agentforce Vibes Extension
- Salesforce features that access LLMs

To manage model provider access:

1. From Setup, in the Quick Find box, enter Einstein Setup.
2. Turn on Einstein if it’s not already turned on.
3. Scroll down to **Configure Model Providers**.
    
    ![List of model providers to turn on or off.](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-ai-generative_ai-264-0-0-production-enus/f8ef6498-d7b2-44e3-9b34-ffd5a850aae9/generative_ai/images/generative_ai_model_provider.png)
4. Selectively turn on or off model providers.
    
    Usually, model providers are enabled by default. For Amazon Bedrock, currently only Anthropic and Amazon models are affected.
5. If you turn off access for a model provider, you’re warned that disabling access stops affected components from running. Confirm your selection.
    
    ![Important](https://sf-zdocs-cdn-prod.zoominsoftware.com/tdta-ai-generative_ai-264-0-0-production-enus/f8ef6498-d7b2-44e3-9b34-ffd5a850aae9/images/icon_important.png)
    
    Important It can take up to ten (10) minutes for model provider disablement to take effect.
