Synopsis

Calls the Amazon Cognito Identity Provider ListUsers API operation.

Syntax

Description

Lists users and their basic details in a user pool. Amazon Cognito evaluates Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies in requests for this API operation. For this operation, you must use IAM credentials to authorize requests, and you must grant yourself the corresponding IAM permission in a policy. Learn more

This cmdlet automatically pages all available results to the pipeline - parameters related to iteration are only needed if you want to manually control the paginated output. To disable autopagination, use -NoAutoIteration.

Parameters

-AttributesToGet <String[]>
A JSON array of user attribute names, for example given_name, that you want Amazon Cognito to include in the response for each user. When you don't provide an AttributesToGet parameter, Amazon Cognito returns all attributes for each user.Use AttributesToGet with required attributes in your user pool, or in conjunction with Filter. Amazon Cognito returns an error if not all users in the results have set a value for the attribute you request. Attributes that you can't filter on, including custom attributes, must have a value set in every user profile before an AttributesToGet parameter returns results.

Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
Amazon.PowerShell.Cmdlets.CGIP.AmazonCognitoIdentityProviderClientCmdlet.ClientConfig

Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Filter <String>
A filter string of the form "AttributeNameFilter-Type "AttributeValue"". Quotation marks within the filter string must be escaped using the backslash (\) character. For example, "family_name = \"Reddy\"".
  • AttributeName: The name of the attribute to search for. You can only search for one attribute at a time.
  • Filter-Type: For an exact match, use =, for example, "given_name = \"Jon\"". For a prefix ("starts with") match, use ^=, for example, "given_name ^= \"Jon\"".
  • AttributeValue: The attribute value that must be matched for each user.
If the filter string is empty, ListUsers returns all users in the user pool.You can only search for the following standard attributes:
  • username (case-sensitive)
  • email
  • phone_number
  • name
  • given_name
  • family_name
  • preferred_username
  • cognito:user_status (called Status in the Console) (case-insensitive)
  • status (called Enabled in the Console) (case-sensitive)
  • sub
Custom attributes aren't searchable.You can also list users with a client-side filter. The server-side filter matches no more than one attribute. For an advanced search, use a client-side filter with the --query parameter of the list-users action in the CLI. When you use a client-side filter, ListUsers returns a paginated list of zero or more users. You can receive multiple pages in a row with zero results. Repeat the query with each pagination token that is returned until you receive a null pagination token value, and then review the combined result. For more information about server-side and client-side filtering, see FilteringCLI output in the Command Line Interface User Guide. For more information, see Searching for Users Using the ListUsers API and Examples of Using the ListUsers API in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Limit <Int32>
Maximum number of users to be returned.
Note: In AWSPowerShell and AWSPowerShell.NetCore this parameter is used to limit the total number of items returned by the cmdlet.
In AWS.Tools this parameter is simply passed to the service to specify how many items should be returned by each service call.
Pipe the output of this cmdlet into Select-Object -First to terminate retrieving data pages early and control the number of items returned.If a value for this parameter is not specified the cmdlet will use a default value of '60'.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesMaxItems
-NoAutoIteration <SwitchParameter>
By default the cmdlet will auto-iterate and retrieve all results to the pipeline by performing multiple service calls. If set, the cmdlet will retrieve only the next 'page' of results using the value of PaginationToken as the start point.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-PaginationToken <String>
This API operation returns a limited number of results. The pagination token is an identifier that you can present in an additional API request with the same parameters. When you include the pagination token, Amazon Cognito returns the next set of items after the current list. Subsequent requests return a new pagination token. By use of this token, you can paginate through the full list of items.
Note: This parameter is only used if you are manually controlling output pagination of the service API call.
In order to manually control output pagination, use '-PaginationToken $null' for the first call and '-PaginationToken $AWSHistory.LastServiceResponse.PaginationToken' for subsequent calls.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
AliasesNextToken
-PassThru <SwitchParameter>
Changes the cmdlet behavior to return the value passed to the UserPoolId parameter. The -PassThru parameter is deprecated, use -Select '^UserPoolId' instead. This parameter will be removed in a future version.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-Select <String>
Use the -Select parameter to control the cmdlet output. The default value is 'Users'. Specifying -Select '*' will result in the cmdlet returning the whole service response (Amazon.CognitoIdentityProvider.Model.ListUsersResponse). Specifying the name of a property of type Amazon.CognitoIdentityProvider.Model.ListUsersResponse will result in that property being returned. Specifying -Select '^ParameterName' will result in the cmdlet returning the selected cmdlet parameter value.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-UserPoolId <String>
The user pool ID for the user pool on which the search should be performed.
Required?True
Position?1
Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)

Common Credential and Region Parameters

-AccessKey <String>
The AWS access key for the user account. This can be a temporary access key if the corresponding session token is supplied to the -SessionToken parameter.
Required?False

Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)
-EndpointUrl <String>
The endpoint to make the call against.Note: This parameter is primarily for internal AWS use and is not required/should not be specified for normal usage. The cmdlets normally determine which endpoint to call based on the region specified to the -Region parameter or set as default in the shell (via Set-DefaultAWSRegion). Only specify this parameter if you must direct the call to a specific custom endpoint.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByPropertyName)
-NetworkCredential <PSCredential>
Used with SAML-based authentication when ProfileName references a SAML role profile. Contains the network credentials to be supplied during authentication with the configured identity provider's endpoint. This parameter is not required if the user's default network identity can or should be used during authentication.
Required?False
Position?Named
Accept pipeline input?True (ByValue, ByPropertyName)
-ProfileLocation <String>
Used to specify the name and location of the ini-format credential file (shared with the AWS CLI and other AWS SDKs)If this optional parameter is omitted this cmdlet will search the encrypted credential file used by the AWS SDK for .NET and AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio first. If the profile is not found then the cmdlet will search in the ini-format credential file at the default location: (user's home directory)\.aws\credentials.If this parameter is specified then this cmdlet will only search the ini-format credential file at the location given.As the current folder can vary in a shell or during script execution it is advised that you use specify a fully qualified path instead of a relative path.
Required?False
