Options

--user-pool-id (string)

The user pool ID for the user pool you want to describe.

--client-id (string)

The app client ID of the app associated with the user pool.

--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. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.

Global Options

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command’s default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

  • json

  • text

  • table

  • yaml

  • yaml-stream

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

Turn on/off color output.

  • on

  • off

  • auto

--no-sign-request (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-binary-format (string)

The formatting style to be used for binary blobs. The default format is base64. The base64 format expects binary blobs to be provided as a base64 encoded string. The raw-in-base64-out format preserves compatibility with AWS CLI V1 behavior and binary values must be passed literally. When providing contents from a file that map to a binary blob fileb:// will always be treated as binary and use the file contents directly regardless of the cli-binary-format setting. When using file:// the file contents will need to properly formatted for the configured cli-binary-format.

  • base64

  • raw-in-base64-out

--no-cli-pager (boolean)

Disable cli pager for output.

--cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

--no-cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Disable automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

Output

UserPoolClient -> (structure)

The user pool client from a server response to describe the user pool client.

UserPoolId -> (string)

The user pool ID for the user pool client.

ClientName -> (string)

The client name from the user pool request of the client type.

ClientId -> (string)

The ID of the client associated with the user pool.

ClientSecret -> (string)

The client secret from the user pool request of the client type.

LastModifiedDate -> (timestamp)

The date the user pool client was last modified.

CreationDate -> (timestamp)

The date the user pool client was created.

RefreshTokenValidity -> (integer)

The refresh token time limit. After this limit expires, your user can’t use their refresh token. To specify the time unit for RefreshTokenValidity as seconds , minutes , hours , or days , set a TokenValidityUnits value in your API request.

For example, when you set RefreshTokenValidity as 10 and TokenValidityUnits as days , your user can refresh their session and retrieve new access and ID tokens for 10 days.

The default time unit for RefreshTokenValidity in an API request is days. You can’t set RefreshTokenValidity to 0. If you do, Amazon Cognito overrides the value with the default value of 30 days. Valid range is displayed below in seconds.

If you don’t specify otherwise in the configuration of your app client, your refresh tokens are valid for 30 days.

AccessTokenValidity -> (integer)

The access token time limit. After this limit expires, your user can’t use their access token. To specify the time unit for AccessTokenValidity as seconds , minutes , hours , or days , set a TokenValidityUnits value in your API request.

For example, when you set AccessTokenValidity to 10 and TokenValidityUnits to hours , your user can authorize access with their access token for 10 hours.

The default time unit for AccessTokenValidity in an API request is hours. Valid range is displayed below in seconds.

If you don’t specify otherwise in the configuration of your app client, your access tokens are valid for one hour.

IdTokenValidity -> (integer)

The ID token time limit. After this limit expires, your user can’t use their ID token. To specify the time unit for IdTokenValidity as seconds , minutes , hours , or days , set a TokenValidityUnits value in your API request.

For example, when you set IdTokenValidity as 10 and TokenValidityUnits as hours , your user can authenticate their session with their ID token for 10 hours.

The default time unit for AccessTokenValidity in an API request is hours. Valid range is displayed below in seconds.

If you don’t specify otherwise in the configuration of your app client, your ID tokens are valid for one hour.

TokenValidityUnits -> (structure)

The time units used to specify the token validity times of each token type: ID, access, and refresh.

AccessToken -> (string)

A time unit of seconds , minutes , hours , or days for the value that you set in the AccessTokenValidity parameter. The default AccessTokenValidity time unit is hours.

IdToken -> (string)

A time unit of seconds , minutes , hours , or days for the value that you set in the IdTokenValidity parameter. The default IdTokenValidity time unit is hours.

RefreshToken -> (string)

A time unit of seconds , minutes , hours , or days for the value that you set in the RefreshTokenValidity parameter. The default RefreshTokenValidity time unit is days.

ReadAttributes -> (list)

The Read-only attributes.

(string)

WriteAttributes -> (list)

The writeable attributes.

(string)

ExplicitAuthFlows -> (list)

The authentication flows that you want your user pool client to support. For each app client in your user pool, you can sign in your users with any combination of one or more flows, including with a user name and Secure Remote Password (SRP), a user name and password, or a custom authentication process that you define with Lambda functions.

Note

If you don’t specify a value for ExplicitAuthFlows , your user client supports ALLOW_REFRESH_TOKEN_AUTH , ALLOW_USER_SRP_AUTH , and ALLOW_CUSTOM_AUTH .

Valid values include:

  • ALLOW_ADMIN_USER_PASSWORD_AUTH : Enable admin based user password authentication flow ADMIN_USER_PASSWORD_AUTH . This setting replaces the ADMIN_NO_SRP_AUTH setting. With this authentication flow, your app passes a user name and password to Amazon Cognito in the request, instead of using the Secure Remote Password (SRP) protocol to securely transmit the password.

  • ALLOW_CUSTOM_AUTH : Enable Lambda trigger based authentication.

  • ALLOW_USER_PASSWORD_AUTH : Enable user password-based authentication. In this flow, Amazon Cognito receives the password in the request instead of using the SRP protocol to verify passwords.

  • ALLOW_USER_SRP_AUTH : Enable SRP-based authentication.

  • ALLOW_REFRESH_TOKEN_AUTH : Enable authflow to refresh tokens.

In some environments, you will see the values ADMIN_NO_SRP_AUTH , CUSTOM_AUTH_FLOW_ONLY , or USER_PASSWORD_AUTH . You can’t assign these legacy ExplicitAuthFlows values to user pool clients at the same time as values that begin with ALLOW_ , like ALLOW_USER_SRP_AUTH .

(string)

SupportedIdentityProviders -> (list)

A list of provider names for the IdPs that this client supports. The following are supported: COGNITO , Facebook , Google , SignInWithApple , LoginWithAmazon , and the names of your own SAML and OIDC providers.

(string)

CallbackURLs -> (list)

A list of allowed redirect (callback) URLs for the IdPs.

A redirect URI must:

  • Be an absolute URI.

  • Be registered with the authorization server.

  • Not include a fragment component.

See OAuth 2.0 - Redirection Endpoint .

Amazon Cognito requires HTTPS over HTTP except for http://localhost for testing purposes only.

App callback URLs such as myapp://example are also supported.

(string)

LogoutURLs -> (list)

A list of allowed logout URLs for the IdPs.

(string)

DefaultRedirectURI -> (string)

The default redirect URI. Must be in the CallbackURLs list.

A redirect URI must:

  • Be an absolute URI.

  • Be registered with the authorization server.

  • Not include a fragment component.

See OAuth 2.0 - Redirection Endpoint .

Amazon Cognito requires HTTPS over HTTP except for http://localhost for testing purposes only.

App callback URLs such as myapp://example are also supported.

AllowedOAuthFlows -> (list)

The allowed OAuth flows.

code

Use a code grant flow, which provides an authorization code as the response. This code can be exchanged for access tokens with the /oauth2/token endpoint.

implicit

Issue the access token (and, optionally, ID token, based on scopes) directly to your user.

client_credentials

Issue the access token from the /oauth2/token endpoint directly to a non-person user using a combination of the client ID and client secret.

(string)

AllowedOAuthScopes -> (list)

The OAuth scopes that your app client supports. Possible values that OAuth provides are phone , email , openid , and profile . Possible values that Amazon Web Services provides are aws.cognito.signin.user.admin . Amazon Cognito also supports custom scopes that you create in Resource Servers.

(string)

AllowedOAuthFlowsUserPoolClient -> (boolean)

Set to true if the client is allowed to follow the OAuth protocol when interacting with Amazon Cognito user pools.

AnalyticsConfiguration -> (structure)

The Amazon Pinpoint analytics configuration for the user pool client.

Note

Amazon Cognito user pools only support sending events to Amazon Pinpoint projects in the US East (N. Virginia) us-east-1 Region, regardless of the Region where the user pool resides.

ApplicationId -> (string)

The application ID for an Amazon Pinpoint application.

ApplicationArn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an Amazon Pinpoint project. You can use the Amazon Pinpoint project to integrate with the chosen user pool Client. Amazon Cognito publishes events to the Amazon Pinpoint project that the app ARN declares.

RoleArn -> (string)

The ARN of an Identity and Access Management role that authorizes Amazon Cognito to publish events to Amazon Pinpoint analytics.

ExternalId -> (string)

The external ID.

UserDataShared -> (boolean)

If UserDataShared is true , Amazon Cognito includes user data in the events that it publishes to Amazon Pinpoint analytics.

PreventUserExistenceErrors -> (string)

Errors and responses that you want Amazon Cognito APIs to return during authentication, account confirmation, and password recovery when the user doesn’t exist in the user pool. When set to ENABLED and the user doesn’t exist, authentication returns an error indicating either the username or password was incorrect. Account confirmation and password recovery return a response indicating a code was sent to a simulated destination. When set to LEGACY , those APIs return a UserNotFoundException exception if the user doesn’t exist in the user pool.

Valid values include:

  • ENABLED - This prevents user existence-related errors.

  • LEGACY - This represents the old behavior of Amazon Cognito where user existence related errors aren’t prevented.

EnableTokenRevocation -> (boolean)

Indicates whether token revocation is activated for the user pool client. When you create a new user pool client, token revocation is activated by default. For more information about revoking tokens, see RevokeToken .

EnablePropagateAdditionalUserContextData -> (boolean)

When EnablePropagateAdditionalUserContextData is true, Amazon Cognito accepts an IpAddress value that you send in the UserContextData parameter. The UserContextData parameter sends information to Amazon Cognito advanced security for risk analysis. You can send UserContextData when you sign in Amazon Cognito native users with the InitiateAuth and RespondToAuthChallenge API operations.

When EnablePropagateAdditionalUserContextData is false, you can’t send your user’s source IP address to Amazon Cognito advanced security with unauthenticated API operations. EnablePropagateAdditionalUserContextData doesn’t affect whether you can send a source IP address in a ContextData parameter with the authenticated API operations AdminInitiateAuth and AdminRespondToAuthChallenge .

You can only activate EnablePropagateAdditionalUserContextData in an app client that has a client secret. For more information about propagation of user context data, see Adding user device and session data to API requests .

AuthSessionValidity -> (integer)

Amazon Cognito creates a session token for each API request in an authentication flow. AuthSessionValidity is the duration, in minutes, of that session token. Your user pool native user must respond to each authentication challenge before the session expires.
