I'm trying to use Prodigy on AWS and I have already launched an instance, installed all necessary dependencies and started Prodigy. How my team members can access it through their browsers?

I don't use AWS.  
In my PC in prodigy.json file I set "host": "0.0.0.0", then the link for the annotators should be: [http://YourIPAddress:8080](http://YourIPAddress:8080).

Yes, that should work. Also make sure that the port you're serving on can be accessed from the outside (sometimes `8080` is blocked by default, so you'll have to change that). It's also possible that AWS wants you to set the host to `*` on AWS – see this thread:

> [@Can't access prodigy from outside aws machine](https://support.prodi.gy/t/cant-access-prodigy-from-outside-aws-machine/3542/2):

> I solved the issue putting the host as "\*"

If you want a more flexible solution, you can also run Prodigy behind a reverse proxy.
