A low-level client representing Amazon Cognito Identity Provider
Using the Amazon Cognito User Pools API, you can create a user pool to manage directories and users. You can authenticate a user to obtain tokens related to user identity and access policies.
This API reference provides information about user pools in Amazon Cognito User Pools.
For more information, see the Amazon Cognito Documentation .
import boto3
client = boto3.client('cognito-idp')
These are the available methods:
Adds additional user attributes to the user pool schema.

)
[REQUIRED]
The user pool ID for the user pool where you want to add custom attributes.
[REQUIRED]
An array of custom attributes, such as Mutable and Name.
Contains information about the schema attribute.
A schema attribute of the name type.
The attribute data type.
Note
We recommend that you use WriteAttributes in the user pool client to control how attributes can be mutated for new use cases instead of using DeveloperOnlyAttribute .
Specifies whether the attribute type is developer only. This attribute can only be modified by an administrator. Users will not be able to modify this attribute using their access token. For example, DeveloperOnlyAttribute can be modified using AdminUpdateUserAttributes but cannot be updated using UpdateUserAttributes.
Specifies whether the value of the attribute can be changed.
For any user pool attribute that's mapped to an identity provider attribute, you must set this parameter to true . Amazon Cognito updates mapped attributes when users sign in to your application through an identity provider. If an attribute is immutable, Amazon Cognito throws an error when it attempts to update the attribute. For more information, see Specifying Identity Provider Attribute Mappings for Your User Pool .
Specifies whether a user pool attribute is required. If the attribute is required and the user does not provide a value, registration or sign-in will fail.
Specifies the constraints for an attribute of the number type.
The minimum value of an attribute that is of the number data type.
The maximum value of an attribute that is of the number data type.
Specifies the constraints for an attribute of the string type.
The minimum length.
The maximum length.

[REQUIRED]
The user pool ID for which you want to confirm user registration.
[REQUIRED]
The user name for which you want to confirm user registration.
A map of custom key-value pairs that you can provide as input for any custom workflows that this action triggers.
If your user pool configuration includes triggers, the AdminConfirmSignUp API action invokes the Lambda function that is specified for the post confirmation trigger. When Amazon Cognito invokes this function, it passes a JSON payload, which the function receives as input. In this payload, the clientMetadata attribute provides the data that you assigned to the ClientMetadata parameter in your AdminConfirmSignUp request. In your function code in Lambda, you can process the ClientMetadata value to enhance your workflow for your specific needs.
For more information, see Customizing User Pool Workflows with Lambda Triggers in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .
Note
Take the following limitations into consideration when you use the ClientMetadata parameter:

(dict) --
Represents the response from the server for the request to confirm registration.
Exceptions
Creates a new user in the specified user pool.
If MessageAction is not set, the default is to send a welcome message via email or phone (SMS).
Note
This action might generate an SMS text message. Starting June 1, 2021, U.S. telecom carriers require that you register an origination phone number before you can send SMS messages to U.S. phone numbers. If you use SMS text messages in Amazon Cognito, you must register a phone number with Amazon Pinpoint . Cognito will use the the registered number automatically. Otherwise, Cognito users that must receive SMS messages might be unable to sign up, activate their accounts, or sign in.
If you have never used SMS text messages with Amazon Cognito or any other Amazon Web Service, Amazon SNS might place your account in SMS sandbox. In * sandbox mode * , you’ll have limitations, such as sending messages to only verified phone numbers. After testing in the sandbox environment, you can move out of the SMS sandbox and into production. For more information, see SMS message settings for Cognito User Pools in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .
This message is based on a template that you configured in your call to create or update a user pool. This template includes your custom sign-up instructions and placeholders for user name and temporary password.
Alternatively, you can call AdminCreateUser with “SUPPRESS” for the MessageAction parameter, and Amazon Cognito will not send any email.
In either case, the user will be in the FORCE_CHANGE_PASSWORD state until they sign in and change their password.
AdminCreateUser requires developer credentials.

[REQUIRED]
The user pool ID for the user pool where the user will be created.
[REQUIRED]
The username for the user. Must be unique within the user pool. Must be a UTF-8 string between 1 and 128 characters. After the user is created, the username cannot be changed.
An array of name-value pairs that contain user attributes and attribute values to be set for the user to be created. You can create a user without specifying any attributes other than Username . However, any attributes that you specify as required (when creating a user pool or in the Attributes tab of the console) must be supplied either by you (in your call to AdminCreateUser ) or by the user (when he or she signs up in response to your welcome message).
For custom attributes, you must prepend the custom: prefix to the attribute name.
To send a message inviting the user to sign up, you must specify the user's email address or phone number. This can be done in your call to AdminCreateUser or in the Users tab of the Amazon Cognito console for managing your user pools.
In your call to AdminCreateUser , you can set the email_verified attribute to True , and you can set the phone_number_verified attribute to True . (You can also do this by calling AdminUpdateUserAttributes .)
Specifies whether the attribute is standard or custom.
The name of the attribute.
The value of the attribute.
The user's validation data. This is an array of name-value pairs that contain user attributes and attribute values that you can use for custom validation, such as restricting the types of user accounts that can be registered. For example, you might choose to allow or disallow user sign-up based on the user's domain.
To configure custom validation, you must create a Pre Sign-up Lambda trigger for the user pool as described in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide. The Lambda trigger receives the validation data and uses it in the validation process.
The user's validation data is not persisted.
Specifies whether the attribute is standard or custom.
The name of the attribute.
The value of the attribute.
The user's temporary password. This password must conform to the password policy that you specified when you created the user pool.
The temporary password is valid only once. To complete the Admin Create User flow, the user must enter the temporary password in the sign-in page along with a new password to be used in all future sign-ins.
This parameter is not required. If you do not specify a value, Amazon Cognito generates one for you.
The temporary password can only be used until the user account expiration limit that you specified when you created the user pool. To reset the account after that time limit, you must call AdminCreateUser again, specifying "RESEND" for the MessageAction parameter.
This parameter is only used if the phone_number_verified or email_verified attribute is set to True . Otherwise, it is ignored.
If this parameter is set to True and the phone number or email address specified in the UserAttributes parameter already exists as an alias with a different user, the API call will migrate the alias from the previous user to the newly created user. The previous user will no longer be able to log in using that alias.
If this parameter is set to False , the API throws an AliasExistsException error if the alias already exists. The default value is False .
Specify "EMAIL" if email will be used to send the welcome message. Specify "SMS" if the phone number will be used. The default value is "SMS" . More than one value can be specified.
A map of custom key-value pairs that you can provide as input for any custom workflows that this action triggers.
You create custom workflows by assigning Lambda functions to user pool triggers. When you use the AdminCreateUser API action, Amazon Cognito invokes the function that is assigned to the pre sign-up trigger. When Amazon Cognito invokes this function, it passes a JSON payload, which the function receives as input. This payload contains a clientMetadata attribute, which provides the data that you assigned to the ClientMetadata parameter in your AdminCreateUser request. In your function code in Lambda, you can process the clientMetadata value to enhance your workflow for your specific needs.
For more information, see Customizing User Pool Workflows with Lambda Triggers in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .

Exceptions
Disables the user from signing in with the specified external (SAML or social) identity provider. If the user to disable is a Cognito User Pools native username + password user, they are not permitted to use their password to sign-in. If the user to disable is a linked external IdP user, any link between that user and an existing user is removed. The next time the external user (no longer attached to the previously linked DestinationUser ) signs in, they must create a new user account. See AdminLinkProviderForUser .
This action is enabled only for admin access and requires developer credentials.
The ProviderName must match the value specified when creating an IdP for the pool.
To disable a native username + password user, the ProviderName value must be Cognito and the ProviderAttributeName must be Cognito_Subject , with the ProviderAttributeValue being the name that is used in the user pool for the user.
The ProviderAttributeName must always be Cognito_Subject for social identity providers. The ProviderAttributeValue must always be the exact subject that was used when the user was originally linked as a source user.
For de-linking a SAML identity, there are two scenarios. If the linked identity has not yet been used to sign-in, the ProviderAttributeName and ProviderAttributeValue must be the same values that were used for the SourceUser when the identities were originally linked using AdminLinkProviderForUser call. (If the linking was done with ProviderAttributeName set to Cognito_Subject , the same applies here). However, if the user has already signed in, the ProviderAttributeName must be Cognito_Subject and ProviderAttributeValue must be the subject of the SAML assertion.

A map of custom key-value pairs that you can provide as input for certain custom workflows that this action triggers.
You create custom workflows by assigning Lambda functions to user pool triggers. When you use the AdminInitiateAuth API action, Amazon Cognito invokes the Lambda functions that are specified for various triggers. The ClientMetadata value is passed as input to the functions for only the following triggers:
When Amazon Cognito invokes the functions for these triggers, it passes a JSON payload, which the function receives as input. This payload contains a validationData attribute, which provides the data that you assigned to the ClientMetadata parameter in your AdminInitiateAuth request. In your function code in Lambda, you can process the validationData value to enhance your workflow for your specific needs.
When you use the AdminInitiateAuth API action, Amazon Cognito also invokes the functions for the following triggers, but it does not provide the ClientMetadata value as input:

ChallengeName (string) --
The name of the challenge which you are responding to with this call. This is returned to you in the AdminInitiateAuth response if you need to pass another challenge.
Session (string) --
The session which should be passed both ways in challenge-response calls to the service. If AdminInitiateAuth or AdminRespondToAuthChallenge API call determines that the caller needs to go through another challenge, they return a session with other challenge parameters. This session should be passed as it is to the next AdminRespondToAuthChallenge API call.
ChallengeParameters (dict) --
The challenge parameters. These are returned to you in the AdminInitiateAuth response if you need to pass another challenge. The responses in this parameter should be used to compute inputs to the next call (AdminRespondToAuthChallenge ).
All challenges require USERNAME and SECRET_HASH (if applicable).
The value of the USER_ID_FOR_SRP attribute will be the user's actual username, not an alias (such as email address or phone number), even if you specified an alias in your call to AdminInitiateAuth . This is because, in the AdminRespondToAuthChallenge API ChallengeResponses , the USERNAME attribute cannot be an alias.
AuthenticationResult (dict) --
The result of the authentication response. This is only returned if the caller does not need to pass another challenge. If the caller does need to pass another challenge before it gets tokens, ChallengeName , ChallengeParameters , and Session are returned.

Exceptions
Links an existing user account in a user pool (DestinationUser ) to an identity from an external identity provider (SourceUser ) based on a specified attribute name and value from the external identity provider. This allows you to create a link from the existing user account to an external federated user identity that has not yet been used to sign in, so that the federated user identity can be used to sign in as the existing user account.
For example, if there is an existing user with a username and password, this API links that user to a federated user identity, so that when the federated user identity is used, the user signs in as the existing user account.
Note
The maximum number of federated identities linked to a user is 5.
Warning
Because this API allows a user with an external federated identity to sign in as an existing user in the user pool, it is critical that it only be used with external identity providers and provider attributes that have been trusted by the application owner.
This action is enabled only for admin access and requires developer credentials.

The user pool ID for the user pool.
[REQUIRED]
The existing user in the user pool to be linked to the external identity provider user account. Can be a native (Username + Password) Cognito User Pools user or a federated user (for example, a SAML or Facebook user). If the user doesn't exist, an exception is thrown. This is the user that is returned when the new user (with the linked identity provider attribute) signs in.
For a native username + password user, the ProviderAttributeValue for the DestinationUser should be the username in the user pool. For a federated user, it should be the provider-specific user_id .
The ProviderAttributeName of the DestinationUser is ignored.
The ProviderName should be set to Cognito for users in Cognito user pools.
The name of the provider, for example, Facebook, Google, or Login with Amazon.
The name of the provider attribute to link to, for example, NameID .
The value of the provider attribute to link to, for example, xxxxx_account .
[REQUIRED]
An external identity provider account for a user who does not currently exist yet in the user pool. This user must be a federated user (for example, a SAML or Facebook user), not another native user.
If the SourceUser is a federated social identity provider user (Facebook, Google, or Login with Amazon), you must set the ProviderAttributeName to Cognito_Subject . For social identity providers, the ProviderName will be Facebook , Google , or LoginWithAmazon , and Cognito will automatically parse the Facebook, Google, and Login with Amazon tokens for id , sub , and user_id , respectively. The ProviderAttributeValue for the user must be the same value as the id , sub , or user_id value found in the social identity provider token.
For SAML, the ProviderAttributeName can be any value that matches a claim in the SAML assertion. If you wish to link SAML users based on the subject of the SAML assertion, you should map the subject to a claim through the SAML identity provider and submit that claim name as the ProviderAttributeName . If you set ProviderAttributeName to Cognito_Subject , Cognito will automatically parse the default unique identifier found in the subject from the SAML token.
The name of the provider, for example, Facebook, Google, or Login with Amazon.
The name of the provider attribute to link to, for example, NameID .

Resets the specified user's password in a user pool as an administrator. Works on any user.
When a developer calls this API, the current password is invalidated, so it must be changed. If a user tries to sign in after the API is called, the app will get a PasswordResetRequiredException exception back and should direct the user down the flow to reset the password, which is the same as the forgot password flow. In addition, if the user pool has phone verification selected and a verified phone number exists for the user, or if email verification is selected and a verified email exists for the user, calling this API will also result in sending a message to the end user with the code to change their password.
Note
This action might generate an SMS text message. Starting June 1, 2021, U.S. telecom carriers require that you register an origination phone number before you can send SMS messages to U.S. phone numbers. If you use SMS text messages in Amazon Cognito, you must register a phone number with Amazon Pinpoint . Cognito will use the the registered number automatically. Otherwise, Cognito users that must receive SMS messages might be unable to sign up, activate their accounts, or sign in.
If you have never used SMS text messages with Amazon Cognito or any other Amazon Web Service, Amazon SNS might place your account in SMS sandbox. In * sandbox mode * , you’ll have limitations, such as sending messages to only verified phone numbers. After testing in the sandbox environment, you can move out of the SMS sandbox and into production. For more information, see SMS message settings for Cognito User Pools in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .

You create custom workflows by assigning Lambda functions to user pool triggers. When you use the AdminResetUserPassword API action, Amazon Cognito invokes the function that is assigned to the custom message trigger. When Amazon Cognito invokes this function, it passes a JSON payload, which the function receives as input. This payload contains a clientMetadata attribute, which provides the data that you assigned to the ClientMetadata parameter in your AdminResetUserPassword request. In your function code in Lambda, you can process the clientMetadata value to enhance your workflow for your specific needs.

A map of custom key-value pairs that you can provide as input for any custom workflows that this action triggers.
You create custom workflows by assigning Lambda functions to user pool triggers. When you use the AdminRespondToAuthChallenge API action, Amazon Cognito invokes any functions that are assigned to the following triggers: pre sign-up , custom message , post authentication , user migration , pre token generation , define auth challenge , create auth challenge , and verify auth challenge response . When Amazon Cognito invokes any of these functions, it passes a JSON payload, which the function receives as input. This payload contains a clientMetadata attribute, which provides the data that you assigned to the ClientMetadata parameter in your AdminRespondToAuthChallenge request. In your function code in Lambda, you can process the clientMetadata value to enhance your workflow for your specific needs.

Note
Calling AssociateSoftwareToken immediately disassociates the existing software token from the user account. If the user doesn't subsequently verify the software token, their account is essentially set up to authenticate without MFA. If MFA config is set to Optional at the user pool level, the user can then login without MFA. However, if MFA is set to Required for the user pool, the user will be asked to setup a new software token MFA during sign in.

If a user belongs to two or more groups, it is the group with the lowest precedence value whose role ARN will be used in the cognito:roles and cognito:preferred_role claims in the user's tokens.
Two groups can have the same Precedence value. If this happens, neither group takes precedence over the other. If two groups with the same Precedence have the same role ARN, that role is used in the cognito:preferred_role claim in tokens for users in each group. If the two groups have different role ARNs, the cognito:preferred_role claim is not set in users' tokens.
The default Precedence value is null.

Creates a new Amazon Cognito user pool and sets the password policy for the pool.
Note
This action might generate an SMS text message. Starting June 1, 2021, U.S. telecom carriers require that you register an origination phone number before you can send SMS messages to U.S. phone numbers. If you use SMS text messages in Amazon Cognito, you must register a phone number with Amazon Pinpoint . Cognito will use the the registered number automatically. Otherwise, Cognito users that must receive SMS messages might be unable to sign up, activate their accounts, or sign in.
If you have never used SMS text messages with Amazon Cognito or any other Amazon Web Service, Amazon SNS might place your account in SMS sandbox. In * sandbox mode * , you’ll have limitations, such as sending messages to only verified phone numbers. After testing in the sandbox environment, you can move out of the SMS sandbox and into production. For more information, see SMS message settings for Cognito User Pools in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .

The Lambda trigger configuration information for the new user pool.
Note
In a push model, event sources (such as Amazon S3 and custom applications) need permission to invoke a function. So you will need to make an extra call to add permission for these event sources to invoke your Lambda function.
For more information on using the Lambda API to add permission, see AddPermission .
For adding permission using the CLI, see add-permission .

A custom Message Lambda trigger.
A post-confirmation Lambda trigger.
A pre-authentication Lambda trigger.
A post-authentication Lambda trigger.
Defines the authentication challenge.
Creates an authentication challenge.
Verifies the authentication challenge response.
A Lambda trigger that is invoked before token generation.
The user migration Lambda config type.
A custom SMS sender Lambda trigger.

The default email option.
The device configuration.
Indicates whether a challenge is required on a new device. Only applicable to a new device.
If true, a device is only remembered on user prompt.
The email configuration.
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of a verified email address in Amazon SES. This email address is used in one of the following ways, depending on the value that you specify for the EmailSendingAccount parameter:
The destination to which the receiver of the email should reply to.
Specifies whether Amazon Cognito emails your users by using its built-in email functionality or your Amazon SES email configuration. Specify one of the following values:
COGNITO_DEFAULT
When Amazon Cognito emails your users, it uses its built-in email functionality. When you use the default option, Amazon Cognito allows only a limited number of emails each day for your user pool. For typical production environments, the default email limit is below the required delivery volume. To achieve a higher delivery volume, specify DEVELOPER to use your Amazon SES email configuration.
To look up the email delivery limit for the default option, see Limits in Amazon Cognito in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .
The default FROM address is no-reply@verificationemail.com. To customize the FROM address, provide the ARN of an Amazon SES verified email address for the SourceArn parameter.
If EmailSendingAccount is COGNITO_DEFAULT, the following parameters aren't allowed:
Note
DEVELOPER EmailSendingAccount is required.
DEVELOPER
When Amazon Cognito emails your users, it uses your Amazon SES configuration. Amazon Cognito calls Amazon SES on your behalf to send email from your verified email address. When you use this option, the email delivery limits are the same limits that apply to your Amazon SES verified email address in your account.
If you use this option, you must provide the ARN of an Amazon SES verified email address for the SourceArn parameter.
Before Amazon Cognito can email your users, it requires additional permissions to call Amazon SES on your behalf. When you update your user pool with this option, Amazon Cognito creates a service-linked role , which is a type of IAM role, in your account. This role contains the permissions that allow Amazon Cognito to access Amazon SES and send email messages with your address. For more information about the service-linked role that Amazon Cognito creates, see Using Service-Linked Roles for Amazon Cognito in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .
Identifies either the sender’s email address or the sender’s name with their email address. For example, testuser@example.com or Test User <testuser@example.com> . This address will appear before the body of the email.
The set of configuration rules that can be applied to emails sent using Amazon SES. A configuration set is applied to an email by including a reference to the configuration set in the headers of the email. Once applied, all of the rules in that configuration set are applied to the email. Configuration sets can be used to apply the following types of rules to emails:
The SMS configuration.
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) caller. This is the ARN of the IAM role in your account which Cognito will use to send SMS messages. SMS messages are subject to a spending limit .
The external ID is a value that we recommend you use to add security to your IAM role which is used to call Amazon SNS to send SMS messages for your user pool. If you provide an ExternalId , the Cognito User Pool will include it when attempting to assume your IAM role, so that you can set your roles trust policy to require the ExternalID . If you use the Cognito Management Console to create a role for SMS MFA, Cognito will create a role with the required permissions and a trust policy that demonstrates use of the ExternalId .
For more information about the ExternalId of a role, see How to use an external ID when granting access to your Amazon Web Services resources to a third party
The tag keys and values to assign to the user pool. A tag is a label that you can use to categorize and manage user pools in different ways, such as by purpose, owner, environment, or other criteria.
The configuration for AdminCreateUser requests.
Set to True if only the administrator is allowed to create user profiles. Set to False if users can sign themselves up via an app.
The user account expiration limit, in days, after which the account is no longer usable. To reset the account after that time limit, you must call AdminCreateUser again, specifying "RESEND" for the MessageAction parameter. The default value for this parameter is 7.
Note
If you set a value for TemporaryPasswordValidityDays in PasswordPolicy , that value will be used and UnusedAccountValidityDays will be deprecated for that user pool.
The message template to be used for the welcome message to new users.
See also Customizing User Invitation Messages .
The message template for SMS messages.
The message template for email messages. EmailMessage is allowed only if EmailSendingAccount is DEVELOPER.
The subject line for email messages. EmailSubject is allowed only if EmailSendingAccount is DEVELOPER.
An array of schema attributes for the new user pool. These attributes can be standard or custom attributes.
Contains information about the schema attribute.
A schema attribute of the name type.
The attribute data type.
Note
We recommend that you use WriteAttributes in the user pool client to control how attributes can be mutated for new use cases instead of using DeveloperOnlyAttribute .
Specifies whether the attribute type is developer only. This attribute can only be modified by an administrator. Users will not be able to modify this attribute using their access token. For example, DeveloperOnlyAttribute can be modified using AdminUpdateUserAttributes but cannot be updated using UpdateUserAttributes.
Specifies whether the value of the attribute can be changed.
For any user pool attribute that's mapped to an identity provider attribute, you must set this parameter to true . Amazon Cognito updates mapped attributes when users sign in to your application through an identity provider. If an attribute is immutable, Amazon Cognito throws an error when it attempts to update the attribute. For more information, see Specifying Identity Provider Attribute Mappings for Your User Pool .
Specifies whether a user pool attribute is required. If the attribute is required and the user does not provide a value, registration or sign-in will fail.
Specifies the constraints for an attribute of the number type.
The minimum value of an attribute that is of the number data type.
The maximum value of an attribute that is of the number data type.
Specifies the constraints for an attribute of the string type.
The minimum length.
The maximum length.
Used to enable advanced security risk detection. Set the key AdvancedSecurityMode to the value "AUDIT".
The advanced security mode.
You can choose to set case sensitivity on the username input for the selected sign-in option. For example, when this is set to False , users will be able to sign in using either "username" or "Username". This configuration is immutable once it has been set. For more information, see UsernameConfigurationType .
Specifies whether username case sensitivity will be applied for all users in the user pool through Cognito APIs.
Valid values include:
Use this setting to define which verified available method a user can use to recover their password when they call ForgotPassword . It allows you to define a preferred method when a user has more than one method available. With this setting, SMS does not qualify for a valid password recovery mechanism if the user also has SMS MFA enabled. In the absence of this setting, Cognito uses the legacy behavior to determine the recovery method where SMS is preferred over email.
The list of RecoveryOptionTypes .
A map containing a priority as a key, and recovery method name as a value.
A positive integer specifying priority of a method with 1 being the highest priority.
Specifies the recovery method for a user.

For example, DeveloperOnlyAttribute can be modified using AdminUpdateUserAttributes but cannot be updated using UpdateUserAttributes.
Mutable (boolean) --
Specifies whether the value of the attribute can be changed.
For any user pool attribute that's mapped to an identity provider attribute, you must set this parameter to true . Amazon Cognito updates mapped attributes when users sign in to your application through an identity provider. If an attribute is immutable, Amazon Cognito throws an error when it attempts to update the attribute. For more information, see Specifying Identity Provider Attribute Mappings for Your User Pool .
Required (boolean) --

ReplyToEmailAddress (string) --
The destination to which the receiver of the email should reply to.
EmailSendingAccount (string) --
Specifies whether Amazon Cognito emails your users by using its built-in email functionality or your Amazon SES email configuration. Specify one of the following values:
COGNITO_DEFAULT
When Amazon Cognito emails your users, it uses its built-in email functionality. When you use the default option, Amazon Cognito allows only a limited number of emails each day for your user pool. For typical production environments, the default email limit is below the required delivery volume. To achieve a higher delivery volume, specify DEVELOPER to use your Amazon SES email configuration.
To look up the email delivery limit for the default option, see Limits in Amazon Cognito in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .
The default FROM address is no-reply@verificationemail.com. To customize the FROM address, provide the ARN of an Amazon SES verified email address for the SourceArn parameter.
If EmailSendingAccount is COGNITO_DEFAULT, the following parameters aren't allowed:
Note
DEVELOPER EmailSendingAccount is required.
DEVELOPER
When Amazon Cognito emails your users, it uses your Amazon SES configuration. Amazon Cognito calls Amazon SES on your behalf to send email from your verified email address. When you use this option, the email delivery limits are the same limits that apply to your Amazon SES verified email address in your account.
If you use this option, you must provide the ARN of an Amazon SES verified email address for the SourceArn parameter.
Before Amazon Cognito can email your users, it requires additional permissions to call Amazon SES on your behalf. When you update your user pool with this option, Amazon Cognito creates a service-linked role , which is a type of IAM role, in your account. This role contains the permissions that allow Amazon Cognito to access Amazon SES and send email messages with your address. For more information about the service-linked role that Amazon Cognito creates, see Using Service-Linked Roles for Amazon Cognito in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .
From (string) --
Identifies either the sender’s email address or the sender’s name with their email address. For example, testuser@example.com or Test User <testuser@example.com> . This address will appear before the body of the email.
ConfigurationSet (string) --
The set of configuration rules that can be applied to emails sent using Amazon SES. A configuration set is applied to an email by including a reference to the configuration set in the headers of the email. Once applied, all of the rules in that configuration set are applied to the email. Configuration sets can be used to apply the following types of rules to emails:
SmsConfiguration (dict) --
The SMS configuration.
SnsCallerArn (string) --
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) caller. This is the ARN of the IAM role in your account which Cognito will use to send SMS messages. SMS messages are subject to a spending limit .
ExternalId (string) --
The external ID is a value that we recommend you use to add security to your IAM role which is used to call Amazon SNS to send SMS messages for your user pool. If you provide an ExternalId , the Cognito User Pool will include it when attempting to assume your IAM role, so that you can set your roles trust policy to require the ExternalID . If you use the Cognito Management Console to create a role for SMS MFA, Cognito will create a role with the required permissions and a trust policy that demonstrates use of the ExternalId .
For more information about the ExternalId of a role, see How to use an external ID when granting access to your Amazon Web Services resources to a third party
UserPoolTags (dict) --
The tags that are assigned to the user pool. A tag is a label that you can apply to user pools to categorize and manage them in different ways, such as by purpose, owner, environment, or other criteria.
SmsConfigurationFailure (string) --
The reason why the SMS configuration cannot send the messages to your users.
This message might include comma-separated values to describe why your SMS configuration can't send messages to user pool end users.
EmailConfigurationFailure (string) --
The reason why the email configuration cannot send the messages to your users.
Domain (string) --
Holds the domain prefix if the user pool has a domain associated with it.
CustomDomain (string) --
A custom domain name that you provide to Amazon Cognito. This parameter applies only if you use a custom domain to host the sign-up and sign-in pages for your application. For example: auth.example.com .
For more information about adding a custom domain to your user pool, see Using Your Own Domain for the Hosted UI .
AdminCreateUserConfig (dict) --
The configuration for AdminCreateUser requests.
AllowAdminCreateUserOnly (boolean) --
Set to True if only the administrator is allowed to create user profiles. Set to False if users can sign themselves up via an app.
UnusedAccountValidityDays (integer) --
The user account expiration limit, in days, after which the account is no longer usable. To reset the account after that time limit, you must call AdminCreateUser again, specifying "RESEND" for the MessageAction parameter. The default value for this parameter is 7.
Note
If you set a value for TemporaryPasswordValidityDays in PasswordPolicy , that value will be used and UnusedAccountValidityDays will be deprecated for that user pool.
InviteMessageTemplate (dict) --
The message template to be used for the welcome message to new users.
See also Customizing User Invitation Messages .
SMSMessage (string) --
The message template for SMS messages.
EmailMessage (string) --
The message template for email messages. EmailMessage is allowed only if EmailSendingAccount is DEVELOPER.
EmailSubject (string) --
The subject line for email messages. EmailSubject is allowed only if EmailSendingAccount is DEVELOPER.
UserPoolAddOns (dict) --
The user pool add-ons.
AdvancedSecurityMode (string) --
The advanced security mode.
UsernameConfiguration (dict) --
You can choose to enable case sensitivity on the username input for the selected sign-in option. For example, when this is set to False , users will be able to sign in using either "username" or "Username". This configuration is immutable once it has been set. For more information, see UsernameConfigurationType .
CaseSensitive (boolean) --
Specifies whether username case sensitivity will be applied for all users in the user pool through Cognito APIs.
Valid values include:
Arn (string) --
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for the user pool.
AccountRecoverySetting (dict) --
Use this setting to define which verified available method a user can use to recover their password when they call ForgotPassword . It allows you to define a preferred method when a user has more than one method available. With this setting, SMS does not qualify for a valid password recovery mechanism if the user also has SMS MFA enabled. In the absence of this setting, Cognito uses the legacy behavior to determine the recovery method where SMS is preferred over email.
RecoveryMechanisms (list) --
The list of RecoveryOptionTypes .
(dict) --
A map containing a priority as a key, and recovery method name as a value.
Priority (integer) --
A positive integer specifying priority of a method with 1 being the highest priority.
Name (string) --
Specifies the recovery method for a user.

Note
We recommend that you use WriteAttributes in the user pool client to control how attributes can be mutated for new use cases instead of using DeveloperOnlyAttribute .
Specifies whether the attribute type is developer only. This attribute can only be modified by an administrator. Users will not be able to modify this attribute using their access token. For example, DeveloperOnlyAttribute can be modified using AdminUpdateUserAttributes but cannot be updated using UpdateUserAttributes.
Specifies whether the value of the attribute can be changed.
For any user pool attribute that's mapped to an identity provider attribute, you must set this parameter to true . Amazon Cognito updates mapped attributes when users sign in to your application through an identity provider. If an attribute is immutable, Amazon Cognito throws an error when it attempts to update the attribute. For more information, see Specifying Identity Provider Attribute Mappings for Your User Pool .

Can be one of the following values:
The device configuration.
Indicates whether a challenge is required on a new device. Only applicable to a new device.
If true, a device is only remembered on user prompt.
A number estimating the size of the user pool.
The email configuration.
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of a verified email address in Amazon SES. This email address is used in one of the following ways, depending on the value that you specify for the EmailSendingAccount parameter:
The destination to which the receiver of the email should reply to.
Specifies whether Amazon Cognito emails your users by using its built-in email functionality or your Amazon SES email configuration. Specify one of the following values:
COGNITO_DEFAULT
When Amazon Cognito emails your users, it uses its built-in email functionality. When you use the default option, Amazon Cognito allows only a limited number of emails each day for your user pool. For typical production environments, the default email limit is below the required delivery volume. To achieve a higher delivery volume, specify DEVELOPER to use your Amazon SES email configuration.
To look up the email delivery limit for the default option, see Limits in Amazon Cognito in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .
The default FROM address is no-reply@verificationemail.com. To customize the FROM address, provide the ARN of an Amazon SES verified email address for the SourceArn parameter.
If EmailSendingAccount is COGNITO_DEFAULT, the following parameters aren't allowed:
Note
DEVELOPER EmailSendingAccount is required.
DEVELOPER
When Amazon Cognito emails your users, it uses your Amazon SES configuration. Amazon Cognito calls Amazon SES on your behalf to send email from your verified email address. When you use this option, the email delivery limits are the same limits that apply to your Amazon SES verified email address in your account.
If you use this option, you must provide the ARN of an Amazon SES verified email address for the SourceArn parameter.
Before Amazon Cognito can email your users, it requires additional permissions to call Amazon SES on your behalf. When you update your user pool with this option, Amazon Cognito creates a service-linked role , which is a type of IAM role, in your account. This role contains the permissions that allow Amazon Cognito to access Amazon SES and send email messages with your address. For more information about the service-linked role that Amazon Cognito creates, see Using Service-Linked Roles for Amazon Cognito in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .
Identifies either the sender’s email address or the sender’s name with their email address. For example, testuser@example.com or Test User <testuser@example.com> . This address will appear before the body of the email.
The set of configuration rules that can be applied to emails sent using Amazon SES. A configuration set is applied to an email by including a reference to the configuration set in the headers of the email. Once applied, all of the rules in that configuration set are applied to the email. Configuration sets can be used to apply the following types of rules to emails:
The SMS configuration.
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) caller. This is the ARN of the IAM role in your account which Cognito will use to send SMS messages. SMS messages are subject to a spending limit .
The external ID is a value that we recommend you use to add security to your IAM role which is used to call Amazon SNS to send SMS messages for your user pool. If you provide an ExternalId , the Cognito User Pool will include it when attempting to assume your IAM role, so that you can set your roles trust policy to require the ExternalID . If you use the Cognito Management Console to create a role for SMS MFA, Cognito will create a role with the required permissions and a trust policy that demonstrates use of the ExternalId .
For more information about the ExternalId of a role, see How to use an external ID when granting access to your Amazon Web Services resources to a third party
The tags that are assigned to the user pool. A tag is a label that you can apply to user pools to categorize and manage them in different ways, such as by purpose, owner, environment, or other criteria.
The reason why the SMS configuration cannot send the messages to your users.
This message might include comma-separated values to describe why your SMS configuration can't send messages to user pool end users.
The reason why the email configuration cannot send the messages to your users.
Holds the domain prefix if the user pool has a domain associated with it.
A custom domain name that you provide to Amazon Cognito. This parameter applies only if you use a custom domain to host the sign-up and sign-in pages for your application. For example: auth.example.com .
For more information about adding a custom domain to your user pool, see Using Your Own Domain for the Hosted UI .
The configuration for AdminCreateUser requests.
Set to True if only the administrator is allowed to create user profiles. Set to False if users can sign themselves up via an app.
The user account expiration limit, in days, after which the account is no longer usable. To reset the account after that time limit, you must call AdminCreateUser again, specifying "RESEND" for the MessageAction parameter. The default value for this parameter is 7.
Note
If you set a value for TemporaryPasswordValidityDays in PasswordPolicy , that value will be used and UnusedAccountValidityDays will be deprecated for that user pool.
The message template to be used for the welcome message to new users.
See also Customizing User Invitation Messages .
The message template for SMS messages.
The message template for email messages. EmailMessage is allowed only if EmailSendingAccount is DEVELOPER.
The subject line for email messages. EmailSubject is allowed only if EmailSendingAccount is DEVELOPER.
The user pool add-ons.
The advanced security mode.
You can choose to enable case sensitivity on the username input for the selected sign-in option. For example, when this is set to False , users will be able to sign in using either "username" or "Username". This configuration is immutable once it has been set. For more information, see UsernameConfigurationType .
Specifies whether username case sensitivity will be applied for all users in the user pool through Cognito APIs.
Valid values include:
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for the user pool.
Use this setting to define which verified available method a user can use to recover their password when they call ForgotPassword . It allows you to define a preferred method when a user has more than one method available. With this setting, SMS does not qualify for a valid password recovery mechanism if the user also has SMS MFA enabled. In the absence of this setting, Cognito uses the legacy behavior to determine the recovery method where SMS is preferred over email.
The list of RecoveryOptionTypes .
A map containing a priority as a key, and recovery method name as a value.
A positive integer specifying priority of a method with 1 being the highest priority.
Specifies the recovery method for a user.
Exceptions

Calling this API causes a message to be sent to the end user with a confirmation code that is required to change the user's password. For the Username parameter, you can use the username or user alias. The method used to send the confirmation code is sent according to the specified AccountRecoverySetting. For more information, see Recovering User Accounts in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide . If neither a verified phone number nor a verified email exists, an InvalidParameterException is thrown. To use the confirmation code for resetting the password, call ConfirmForgotPassword .
Note
This action might generate an SMS text message. Starting June 1, 2021, U.S. telecom carriers require that you register an origination phone number before you can send SMS messages to U.S. phone numbers. If you use SMS text messages in Amazon Cognito, you must register a phone number with Amazon Pinpoint . Cognito will use the the registered number automatically. Otherwise, Cognito users that must receive SMS messages might be unable to sign up, activate their accounts, or sign in.
If you have never used SMS text messages with Amazon Cognito or any other Amazon Web Service, Amazon SNS might place your account in SMS sandbox. In * sandbox mode * , you’ll have limitations, such as sending messages to only verified phone numbers. After testing in the sandbox environment, you can move out of the SMS sandbox and into production. For more information, see SMS message settings for Cognito User Pools in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .

[REQUIRED]
The user name of the user for whom you want to enter a code to reset a forgotten password.
The Amazon Pinpoint analytics metadata for collecting metrics for ForgotPassword calls.
The endpoint ID.
A map of custom key-value pairs that you can provide as input for any custom workflows that this action triggers.
You create custom workflows by assigning Lambda functions to user pool triggers. When you use the ForgotPassword API action, Amazon Cognito invokes any functions that are assigned to the following triggers: pre sign-up , custom message , and user migration . When Amazon Cognito invokes any of these functions, it passes a JSON payload, which the function receives as input. This payload contains a clientMetadata attribute, which provides the data that you assigned to the ClientMetadata parameter in your ForgotPassword request. In your function code in Lambda, you can process the clientMetadata value to enhance your workflow for your specific needs.
For more information, see Customizing User Pool Workflows with Lambda Triggers in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .
Note
Take the following limitations into consideration when you use the ClientMetadata parameter:

Note
This action might generate an SMS text message. Starting June 1, 2021, U.S. telecom carriers require that you register an origination phone number before you can send SMS messages to U.S. phone numbers. If you use SMS text messages in Amazon Cognito, you must register a phone number with Amazon Pinpoint . Cognito will use the the registered number automatically. Otherwise, Cognito users that must receive SMS messages might be unable to sign up, activate their accounts, or sign in.
If you have never used SMS text messages with Amazon Cognito or any other Amazon Web Service, Amazon SNS might place your account in SMS sandbox. In * sandbox mode * , you’ll have limitations, such as sending messages to only verified phone numbers. After testing in the sandbox environment, you can move out of the SMS sandbox and into production. For more information, see SMS message settings for Cognito User Pools in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .

When Amazon Cognito invokes this function, it passes a JSON payload, which the function receives as input. This payload contains a clientMetadata attribute, which provides the data that you assigned to the ClientMetadata parameter in your GetUserAttributeVerificationCode request. In your function code in Lambda, you can process the clientMetadata value to enhance your workflow for your specific needs.

The SMS configuration.
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) caller. This is the ARN of the IAM role in your account which Cognito will use to send SMS messages. SMS messages are subject to a spending limit .
The external ID is a value that we recommend you use to add security to your IAM role which is used to call Amazon SNS to send SMS messages for your user pool. If you provide an ExternalId , the Cognito User Pool will include it when attempting to assume your IAM role, so that you can set your roles trust policy to require the ExternalID . If you use the Cognito Management Console to create a role for SMS MFA, Cognito will create a role with the required permissions and a trust policy that demonstrates use of the ExternalId .

Note
This action might generate an SMS text message. Starting June 1, 2021, U.S. telecom carriers require that you register an origination phone number before you can send SMS messages to U.S. phone numbers. If you use SMS text messages in Amazon Cognito, you must register a phone number with Amazon Pinpoint . Cognito will use the the registered number automatically. Otherwise, Cognito users that must receive SMS messages might be unable to sign up, activate their accounts, or sign in.
If you have never used SMS text messages with Amazon Cognito or any other Amazon Web Service, Amazon SNS might place your account in SMS sandbox. In * sandbox mode * , you’ll have limitations, such as sending messages to only verified phone numbers. After testing in the sandbox environment, you can move out of the SMS sandbox and into production. For more information, see SMS message settings for Cognito User Pools in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .

When Amazon Cognito invokes this function, it passes a JSON payload, which the function receives as input. This payload contains a clientMetadata attribute, which provides the data that you assigned to the ClientMetadata parameter in your ResendConfirmationCode request. In your function code in Lambda, you can process the clientMetadata value to enhance your workflow for your specific needs.

A map of custom key-value pairs that you can provide as input for any custom workflows that this action triggers.
You create custom workflows by assigning Lambda functions to user pool triggers. When you use the RespondToAuthChallenge API action, Amazon Cognito invokes any functions that are assigned to the following triggers: post authentication , pre token generation , define auth challenge , create auth challenge , and verify auth challenge . When Amazon Cognito invokes any of these functions, it passes a JSON payload, which the function receives as input. This payload contains a clientMetadata attribute, which provides the data that you assigned to the ClientMetadata parameter in your RespondToAuthChallenge request.

Set the user's multi-factor authentication (MFA) method preference, including which MFA factors are enabled and if any are preferred. Only one factor can be set as preferred. The preferred MFA factor will be used to authenticate a user if multiple factors are enabled. If multiple options are enabled and no preference is set, a challenge to choose an MFA option will be returned during sign in. If an MFA type is enabled for a user, the user will be prompted for MFA during all sign in attempts, unless device tracking is turned on and the device has been trusted. If you would like MFA to be applied selectively based on the assessed risk level of sign in attempts, disable MFA for users and turn on Adaptive Authentication for the user pool.

This action might generate an SMS text message. Starting June 1, 2021, U.S. telecom carriers require that you register an origination phone number before you can send SMS messages to U.S. phone numbers. If you use SMS text messages in Amazon Cognito, you must register a phone number with Amazon Pinpoint . Cognito will use the the registered number automatically. Otherwise, Cognito users that must receive SMS messages might be unable to sign up, activate their accounts, or sign in.
If you have never used SMS text messages with Amazon Cognito or any other Amazon Web Service, Amazon SNS might place your account in SMS sandbox. In * sandbox mode * , you’ll have limitations, such as sending messages to only verified phone numbers.

A map of custom key-value pairs that you can provide as input for any custom workflows that this action triggers.
You create custom workflows by assigning Lambda functions to user pool triggers. When you use the SignUp API action, Amazon Cognito invokes any functions that are assigned to the following triggers: pre sign-up , custom message , and post confirmation . When Amazon Cognito invokes any of these functions, it passes a JSON payload, which the function receives as input. This payload contains a clientMetadata attribute, which provides the data that you assigned to the ClientMetadata parameter in your SignUp request. In your function code in Lambda, you can process the clientMetadata value to enhance your workflow for your specific needs.

Assigns a set of tags to an Amazon Cognito user pool. A tag is a label that you can use to categorize and manage user pools in different ways, such as by purpose, owner, environment, or other criteria.
Each tag consists of a key and value, both of which you define. A key is a general category for more specific values. For example, if you have two versions of a user pool, one for testing and another for production, you might assign an Environment tag key to both user pools. The value of this key might be Test for one user pool and Production for the other.
Tags are useful for cost tracking and access control. You can activate your tags so that they appear on the Billing and Cost Management console, where you can track the costs associated with your user pools. In an IAM policy, you can constrain permissions for user pools based on specific tags or tag values.
You can use this action up to 5 times per second, per account. A user pool can have as many as 50 tags.

The template for verification messages.
The SMS message template.
The email message template. EmailMessage is allowed only if EmailSendingAccount is DEVELOPER.
The subject line for the email message template. EmailSubject is allowed only if EmailSendingAccount is DEVELOPER.
The email message template for sending a confirmation link to the user. EmailMessageByLink is allowed only if EmailSendingAccount is DEVELOPER.
The subject line for the email message template for sending a confirmation link to the user. EmailSubjectByLink is allowed only EmailSendingAccount is DEVELOPER.
The default email option.
Can be one of the following values:
Device configuration.
Indicates whether a challenge is required on a new device. Only applicable to a new device.
If true, a device is only remembered on user prompt.
Email configuration.
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of a verified email address in Amazon SES. This email address is used in one of the following ways, depending on the value that you specify for the EmailSendingAccount parameter:
The destination to which the receiver of the email should reply to.
Specifies whether Amazon Cognito emails your users by using its built-in email functionality or your Amazon SES email configuration. Specify one of the following values:
COGNITO_DEFAULT
When Amazon Cognito emails your users, it uses its built-in email functionality. When you use the default option, Amazon Cognito allows only a limited number of emails each day for your user pool. For typical production environments, the default email limit is below the required delivery volume. To achieve a higher delivery volume, specify DEVELOPER to use your Amazon SES email configuration.
To look up the email delivery limit for the default option, see Limits in Amazon Cognito in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .
The default FROM address is no-reply@verificationemail.com. To customize the FROM address, provide the ARN of an Amazon SES verified email address for the SourceArn parameter.
If EmailSendingAccount is COGNITO_DEFAULT, the following parameters aren't allowed:
Note
DEVELOPER EmailSendingAccount is required.
DEVELOPER
When Amazon Cognito emails your users, it uses your Amazon SES configuration. Amazon Cognito calls Amazon SES on your behalf to send email from your verified email address. When you use this option, the email delivery limits are the same limits that apply to your Amazon SES verified email address in your account.
If you use this option, you must provide the ARN of an Amazon SES verified email address for the SourceArn parameter.
Before Amazon Cognito can email your users, it requires additional permissions to call Amazon SES on your behalf. When you update your user pool with this option, Amazon Cognito creates a service-linked role , which is a type of IAM role, in your account. This role contains the permissions that allow Amazon Cognito to access Amazon SES and send email messages with your address. For more information about the service-linked role that Amazon Cognito creates, see Using Service-Linked Roles for Amazon Cognito in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .
Identifies either the sender’s email address or the sender’s name with their email address. For example, testuser@example.com or Test User <testuser@example.com> . This address will appear before the body of the email.
The set of configuration rules that can be applied to emails sent using Amazon SES. A configuration set is applied to an email by including a reference to the configuration set in the headers of the email. Once applied, all of the rules in that configuration set are applied to the email. Configuration sets can be used to apply the following types of rules to emails:
SMS configuration.
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) caller. This is the ARN of the IAM role in your account which Cognito will use to send SMS messages. SMS messages are subject to a spending limit .
The external ID is a value that we recommend you use to add security to your IAM role which is used to call Amazon SNS to send SMS messages for your user pool. If you provide an ExternalId , the Cognito User Pool will include it when attempting to assume your IAM role, so that you can set your roles trust policy to require the ExternalID . If you use the Cognito Management Console to create a role for SMS MFA, Cognito will create a role with the required permissions and a trust policy that demonstrates use of the ExternalId .
For more information about the ExternalId of a role, see How to use an external ID when granting access to your Amazon Web Services resources to a third party
The tag keys and values to assign to the user pool. A tag is a label that you can use to categorize and manage user pools in different ways, such as by purpose, owner, environment, or other criteria.
The configuration for AdminCreateUser requests.
Set to True if only the administrator is allowed to create user profiles. Set to False if users can sign themselves up via an app.
The user account expiration limit, in days, after which the account is no longer usable. To reset the account after that time limit, you must call AdminCreateUser again, specifying "RESEND" for the MessageAction parameter. The default value for this parameter is 7.
Note
If you set a value for TemporaryPasswordValidityDays in PasswordPolicy , that value will be used and UnusedAccountValidityDays will be deprecated for that user pool.
The message template to be used for the welcome message to new users.
See also Customizing User Invitation Messages .
The message template for SMS messages.
The message template for email messages. EmailMessage is allowed only if EmailSendingAccount is DEVELOPER.
The subject line for email messages. EmailSubject is allowed only if EmailSendingAccount is DEVELOPER.
Used to enable advanced security risk detection. Set the key AdvancedSecurityMode to the value "AUDIT".
The advanced security mode.
Use this setting to define which verified available method a user can use to recover their password when they call ForgotPassword . It allows you to define a preferred method when a user has more than one method available. With this setting, SMS does not qualify for a valid password recovery mechanism if the user also has SMS MFA enabled. In the absence of this setting, Cognito uses the legacy behavior to determine the recovery method where SMS is preferred over email.
The list of RecoveryOptionTypes .
A map containing a priority as a key, and recovery method name as a value.
A positive integer specifying priority of a method with 1 being the highest priority.
Specifies the recovery method for a user.

Exceptions
Updates the Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate for the custom domain for your user pool.
You can use this operation to provide the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of a new certificate to Amazon Cognito. You cannot use it to change the domain for a user pool.
A custom domain is used to host the Amazon Cognito hosted UI, which provides sign-up and sign-in pages for your application. When you set up a custom domain, you provide a certificate that you manage with Certificate Manager (ACM). When necessary, you can use this operation to change the certificate that you applied to your custom domain.
Usually, this is unnecessary following routine certificate renewal with ACM. When you renew your existing certificate in ACM, the ARN for your certificate remains the same, and your custom domain uses the new certificate automatically.
However, if you replace your existing certificate with a new one, ACM gives the new certificate a new ARN. To apply the new certificate to your custom domain, you must provide this ARN to Amazon Cognito.
When you add your new certificate in ACM, you must choose US East (N. Virginia) as the Region.
After you submit your request, Amazon Cognito requires up to 1 hour to distribute your new certificate to your custom domain.
For more information about adding a custom domain to your user pool, see Using Your Own Domain for the Hosted UI .

UserPoolId (string) --
The user pool ID for the user pool.
Description (string) --
A string containing the description of the group.
RoleArn (string) --
The role ARN for the group.
Precedence (integer) --
A nonnegative integer value that specifies the precedence of this group relative to the other groups that a user can belong to in the user pool. If a user belongs to two or more groups, it is the group with the highest precedence whose role ARN will be used in the cognito:roles and cognito:preferred_role claims in the user's tokens. Groups with higher Precedence values take precedence over groups with lower Precedence values or with null Precedence values.
Two groups can have the same Precedence value. If this happens, neither group takes precedence over the other. If two groups with the same Precedence have the same role ARN, that role is used in the cognito:preferred_role claim in tokens for users in each group. If the two groups have different role ARNs, the cognito:preferred_role claim is not set in users' tokens.
The default Precedence value is null.
LastModifiedDate (datetime) --
The date the group was last modified.
CreationDate (datetime) --
The date the group was created.
