See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Synopsis

  describe-identity-pool
--identity-pool-id <value>
[--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml]
[--generate-cli-skeleton <value>]
[--cli-auto-prompt <value>]

Options

--identity-pool-id (string)

An identity pool ID in the format REGION:GUID.

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command.

--cli-auto-prompt (boolean) Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

See ‘aws help’ for descriptions of global parameters.

Examples

To describe an identity pool

This example describes an identity pool.

Command:

aws cognito-identity describe-identity-pool --identity-pool-id "us-west-2:11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111"

Output:

{
  "IdentityPoolId": "us-west-2:11111111-1111-1111-1111-111111111111",
  "IdentityPoolName": "MyIdentityPool",
  "AllowUnauthenticatedIdentities": false,
  "CognitoIdentityProviders": [
      {
          "ProviderName": "cognito-idp.us-west-2.amazonaws.com/us-west-2_111111111",
          "ClientId": "3n4b5urk1ft4fl3mg5e62d9ado",
          "ServerSideTokenCheck": false
      }
  ]
}

Output

IdentityPoolId -> (string)

An identity pool ID in the format REGION:GUID.

IdentityPoolName -> (string)

A string that you provide.

AllowUnauthenticatedIdentities -> (boolean)

TRUE if the identity pool supports unauthenticated logins.

AllowClassicFlow -> (boolean)

Enables or disables the Basic (Classic) authentication flow. For more information, see Identity Pools (Federated Identities) Authentication Flow in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .

SupportedLoginProviders -> (map)

Optional key:value pairs mapping provider names to provider app IDs.

key -> (string)

value -> (string)

DeveloperProviderName -> (string)

The “domain” by which Cognito will refer to your users.

OpenIdConnectProviderARNs -> (list)

A list of OpendID Connect provider ARNs.

(string)

CognitoIdentityProviders -> (list)

A list representing an Amazon Cognito user pool and its client ID.

(structure)

A provider representing an Amazon Cognito user pool and its client ID.

ProviderName -> (string)

The provider name for an Amazon Cognito user pool. For example, cognito-idp.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/us-east-1_123456789 .

ClientId -> (string)

The client ID for the Amazon Cognito user pool.

ServerSideTokenCheck -> (boolean)

TRUE if server-side token validation is enabled for the identity provider’s token.

Once you set ServerSideTokenCheck to TRUE for an identity pool, that identity pool will check with the integrated user pools to make sure that the user has not been globally signed out or deleted before the identity pool provides an OIDC token or AWS credentials for the user.

If the user is signed out or deleted, the identity pool will return a 400 Not Authorized error.

SamlProviderARNs -> (list)

An array of Amazon Resource Names (ARNs) of the SAML provider for your identity pool.

(string)

IdentityPoolTags -> (map)

The tags that are assigned to the identity pool. A tag is a label that you can apply to identity pools to categorize and manage them in different ways, such as by purpose, owner, environment, or other criteria.

key -> (string)

value -> (string)
