Operations on AWS Cognito Identity

Link to this section Summary

Functions

Creates a new identity pool. The identity pool is a store of user identity information that is specific to your AWS account. The keys for SupportedLoginProviders are as follows

Deletes identities from an identity pool. You can specify a list of 1-60 identities that you want to delete.

Deletes an identity pool. Once a pool is deleted, users will not be able to authenticate with the pool.

Returns metadata related to the given identity, including when the identity was created and any associated linked logins.

Gets details about a particular identity pool, including the pool name, ID description, creation date, and current number of users.

Returns credentials for the provided identity ID. Any provided logins will be validated against supported login providers. If the token is for cognito-identity.amazonaws.com, it will be passed through to AWS Security Token Service with the appropriate role for the token.

Generates (or retrieves) a Cognito ID. Supplying multiple logins will create an implicit linked account.

Gets the roles for an identity pool.

Gets an OpenID token, using a known Cognito ID. This known Cognito ID is returned by GetId. You can optionally add additional logins for the identity. Supplying multiple logins creates an implicit link.

Registers (or retrieves) a Cognito IdentityId and an OpenID Connect token for a user authenticated by your backend authentication process. Supplying multiple logins will create an implicit linked account. You can only specify one developer provider as part of the Logins map, which is linked to the identity pool. The developer provider is the "domain" by which Cognito will refer to your users.

Lists the identities in an identity pool.

Lists all of the Cognito identity pools registered for your account.

Lists the tags that are assigned to an Amazon Cognito identity pool.

Retrieves the IdentityID associated with a DeveloperUserIdentifier or the list of DeveloperUserIdentifier values associated with an IdentityId for an existing identity. Either IdentityID or DeveloperUserIdentifier must not be null. If you supply only one of these values, the other value will be searched in the database and returned as a part of the response. If you supply both, DeveloperUserIdentifier will be matched against IdentityID. If the values are verified against the database, the response returns both values and is the same as the request. Otherwise a ResourceConflictException is thrown.

Merges two users having different IdentityIds, existing in the same identity pool, and identified by the same developer provider. You can use this action to request that discrete users be merged and identified as a single user in the Cognito environment. Cognito associates the given source user (SourceUserIdentifier) with the IdentityId of the DestinationUserIdentifier. Only developer-authenticated users can be merged. If the users to be merged are associated with the same public provider, but as two different users, an exception will be thrown.

Sets the roles for an identity pool. These roles are used when making calls to GetCredentialsForIdentity action.

Assigns a set of tags to the specified Amazon Cognito identity pool. A tag is a label that you can use to categorize and manage identity pools in different ways, such as by purpose, owner, environment, or other criteria.

Unlinks a DeveloperUserIdentifier from an existing identity. Unlinked developer users will be considered new identities next time they are seen. If, for a given Cognito identity, you remove all federated identities as well as the developer user identifier, the Cognito identity becomes inaccessible.

Unlinks a federated identity from an existing account. Unlinked logins will be considered new identities next time they are seen. Removing the last linked login will make this identity inaccessible.

Removes the specified tags from the specified Amazon Cognito identity pool. You can use this action up to 5 times per second, per account

AWS API Docs

You can use GetOpenIdTokenForDeveloperIdentity to create a new identity and to link new logins (that is, user credentials issued by a public provider or developer provider) to an existing identity. When you want to create a new identity, the IdentityId should be null. When you want to associate a new login with an existing authenticated/unauthenticated identity, you can do so by providing the existing IdentityId. This API will create the identity in the specified IdentityPoolId.

You must use AWS Developer credentials to call this API.

Link to this function

lookup_developer_identity(pool_id, opts \\ [])

View Source

Retrieves the IdentityID associated with a DeveloperUserIdentifier or the list of DeveloperUserIdentifier values associated with an IdentityId for an existing identity. Either IdentityID or DeveloperUserIdentifier must not be null. If you supply only one of these values, the other value will be searched in the database and returned as a part of the response. If you supply both, DeveloperUserIdentifier will be matched against IdentityID. If the values are verified against the database, the response returns both values and is the same as the request. Otherwise a ResourceConflictException is thrown.

AWS API Docs

You must use AWS Developer credentials to call this API.

Options

*:developer_user_identifier - A unique ID used by your backend authentication process to identify a user. Typically, a developer identity provider would issue many developer user identifiers, in keeping with the number of users. Valid values: string with min length 1 and max length of 1024.

*:identity_id - A unique identifier in the format REGION:GUID. Valid values: string with min length of 1 and max length of 55.

*:max_results - The maximum number of identities to return. Valid values: integer between 1 and 60.

*:next_token - A pagination token. The first call you make will have NextToken set to null. After that the service will return NextToken values as needed. For example, let's say you make a request with MaxResults set to 10, and there are 20 matches in the database. The service will return a pagination token as a part of the response. This token can be used to call the API again and get results starting from the 11th match. Valid values: string with min length of 1

Link to this function

merge_developer_identities(pool_id, dest_user_identifier, dev_provider_name, source_user_identifier)

View Source

Merges two users having different IdentityIds, existing in the same identity pool, and identified by the same developer provider. You can use this action to request that discrete users be merged and identified as a single user in the Cognito environment. Cognito associates the given source user (SourceUserIdentifier) with the IdentityId of the DestinationUserIdentifier. Only developer-authenticated users can be merged. If the users to be merged are associated with the same public provider, but as two different users, an exception will be thrown.

AWS API Docs

The number of linked logins is limited to 20. So, the number of linked logins for the source user, SourceUserIdentifier, and the destination user, DestinationUserIdentifier, together should not be larger than 20. Otherwise, an exception will be thrown.

You must use AWS Developer credentials to call this API.

Link to this function

set_identity_pool_roles(pool_id, roles, opts \\ [])

View Source

Sets the roles for an identity pool. These roles are used when making calls to GetCredentialsForIdentity action.

AWS API Docs

You must use AWS Developer credentials to call this API.

Options

*:role_mappings - How users for a specific identity provider are to mapped to roles. This is a string to RoleMapping object map. The string identifies the identity provider, for example, "graph.facebook.com" or "cognito-idp.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/us-east-1_abcdefghi:app_client_id".

Up to 25 rules can be specified per identity provider. Valid values: string to RoleMapping object map, key min length of 1 and max length of 128.

Link to this function

tag_resource(resource_arn, tags)

View Source

Assigns a set of tags to the specified Amazon Cognito identity pool. A tag is a label that you can use to categorize and manage identity pools in different ways, such as by purpose, owner, environment, or other criteria.

AWS API Docs

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 an identity pool, one for testing and another for production, you might assign an Environment tag key to both identity pools. The value of this key might be Test for one identity 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 identity pools. In an IAM policy, you can constrain permissions for identity pools based on specific tags or tag values.

You can use this action up to 5 times per second, per account. An identity pool can have as many as 50 tags.
