+### Guardrails Integration
+If you would like to create an AWS Bedrock Guardrail that is applied to FM interactions then please follow the following steps.
+1. Create the AWS Bedrock Guardrail via the console or your favorite IaC language
+2. Inject the following environment variables into your chosen deployment
+
+```bash
+ENABLE_GUARDRAIL=true
+GUARDRAIL_IDENTIFIER=<arn of your guardrail - e.g. arn:aws:bedrock:us-east-1:123456789012:guardrail/ab4z4asdre90>
+GUARDRAIL_VERSION=<version of your guardrail - e.g. 1>
+```
