UpdateIdentityProvider

Modifies the configuration and trust relationship between a third-party identity provider (IdP) and a user pool. Amazon Cognito accepts sign-in with third-party identity providers through managed login and OIDC relying-party libraries. For more information, see Third-party IdP sign-in.

Note

Amazon Cognito evaluates AWS 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.

Request Parameters

For information about the parameters that are common to all actions, see Common Parameters.

The request accepts the following data in JSON format.

AttributeMapping

A mapping of IdP attributes to standard and custom user pool attributes. Specify a user pool attribute as the key of the key-value pair, and the IdP attribute claim name as the value.

Type: String to string map

Key Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 32.

Value Length Constraints: Minimum length of 0. Maximum length of 131072.

Required: No

IdpIdentifiers

An array of IdP identifiers, for example "IdPIdentifiers": [ "MyIdP", "MyIdP2" ]. Identifiers are friendly names that you can pass in the idp_identifier query parameter of requests to the Authorize endpoint to silently redirect to sign-in with the associated IdP. Identifiers in a domain format also enable the use of email-address matching with SAML providers.

Type: Array of strings

Array Members: Minimum number of 0 items. Maximum number of 50 items.

Length Constraints: Minimum length of 1. Maximum length of 40.

Pattern: [\w\s+=.@-]+

Required: No

ProviderDetails

The scopes, URLs, and identifiers for your external identity provider. The following examples describe the provider detail keys for each IdP type. These values and their schema are subject to change. Social IdP authorize_scopes values must match the values listed here.

OpenID Connect (OIDC)

Amazon Cognito accepts the following elements when it can't discover endpoint URLs from oidc_issuer: attributes_url, authorize_url, jwks_uri, token_url.
