If
MessageActionisn't set, the default is to send a welcome message via email or phone (SMS).This action might generate an SMS text message. Starting June 1, 2021, US telecom carriers require you to register an origination phone number before you can send SMS messages to US phone numbers. If you use SMS text messages in Amazon Cognito, you must register a phone number with . Amazon Cognito uses the registered number automatically. Otherwise, Amazon Cognito users who must receive SMS messages might not be able 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 Simple Notification Service might place your account in the SMS sandbox. In , you can send messages only to verified phone numbers. After you test your app while in the sandbox environment, you can move out of the sandbox and into production. For more information, see 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
AdminCreateUserwithSUPPRESSfor theMessageActionparameter, and Amazon Cognito won't send any email.In either case, the user will be in the
FORCE_CHANGE_PASSWORDstate until they sign in and change their password.AdminCreateUserrequires developer credentials. -

xAmzTargetAwsCognitoIdentityProviderServiceAdminDisableProviderForUser.adminDisableProviderForUserPrevents the user from signing in with the specified external (SAML or social) identity provider (IdP). If the user that you want to deactivate is a Amazon Cognito user pools native username + password user, they can't use their password to sign in. If the user to deactivate is a linked external IdP user, any link between that user and an existing user is removed. When the external user signs in again, and the user is no longer attached to the previously linked
DestinationUser, the user must create a new user account. See .This action is enabled only for admin access and requires developer credentials.
The
ProviderNamemust match the value specified when creating an IdP for the pool.To deactivate a native username + password user, the
ProviderNamevalue must beCognitoand theProviderAttributeNamemust beCognito_Subject. TheProviderAttributeValuemust be the name that is used in the user pool for the user.The
ProviderAttributeNamemust always beCognito_Subjectfor social IdPs. TheProviderAttributeValuemust 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
ProviderAttributeNameandProviderAttributeValuemust be the same values that were used for theSourceUserwhen the identities were originally linked usingAdminLinkProviderForUsercall. (If the linking was done withProviderAttributeNameset toCognito_Subject, the same applies here). However, if the user has already signed in, theProviderAttributeNamemust beCognito_SubjectandProviderAttributeValuemust be the subject of the SAML assertion. -
xAmzTargetAwsCognitoIdentityProviderServiceAdminDisableUser.adminDisableUserDeactivates a user and revokes all access tokens for the user. A deactivated user can't sign in, but still appears in the responses to

xAmzTargetAwsCognitoIdentityProviderServiceAdminLinkProviderForUser.adminLinkProviderForUserLinks an existing user account in a user pool (
DestinationUser) to an identity from an external IdP (SourceUser) based on a specified attribute name and value from the external IdP. 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. You can then use the federated user identity 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. When the user signs in with a federated user identity, they sign in as the existing user account.
The maximum number of federated identities linked to a user is five.
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 IdPs and provider attributes that have been trusted by the application owner.

xAmzTargetAwsCognitoIdentityProviderServiceAdminResetUserPassword.adminResetUserPasswordResets 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.

-
xAmzTargetAwsCognitoIdentityProviderServiceAssociateSoftwareToken.associateSoftwareTokenBegins setup of time-based one-time password (TOTP) multi-factor authentication (MFA) for a user, with a unique private key that Amazon Cognito generates and returns in the API response. You can authorize an
AssociateSoftwareTokenrequest with either the user's access token, or a session string from a challenge response that you received from Amazon Cognito.Amazon Cognito disassociates an existing software token when you verify the new token in a API request. If you don't verify the software token and your user pool doesn't require MFA, the user can then authenticate with user name and password credentials alone. If your user pool requires TOTP MFA, Amazon Cognito generates an
MFA_SETUPorSOFTWARE_TOKEN_SETUPchallenge each time your user signs. Complete setup withAssociateSoftwareTokenandVerifySoftwareToken.After you set up software token MFA for your user, Amazon Cognito generates a
SOFTWARE_TOKEN_MFAchallenge when they authenticate. Respond to this challenge with your user's TOTP. -

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
Environmenttag key to both user pools. The value of this key might beTestfor one user pool, andProductionfor 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 Identity and Access Management 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.

xAmzTargetAwsCognitoIdentityProviderServiceUpdateUserPoolDomain.updateUserPoolDomainUpdates 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 can't 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 Amazon Web Services 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 .
