[ aws . cognito-idp ]
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 Pinpoint . 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 Services service, Amazon Simple Notification Service might place your account in the SMS sandbox. In * sandbox mode * , 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 SMS message settings for Amazon Cognito user pools in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .
Creates a new Amazon Cognito user pool and sets the password policy for the 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.

--user-attribute-update-settings
(structure)
The settings for updates to user attributes. These settings include the property
AttributesRequireVerificationBeforeUpdate
, a user-pool setting that tells Amazon Cognito how to handle changes to the value of your users' email address and phone number attributes. For more information, see Verifying updates to email addresses and phone numbers .AttributesRequireVerificationBeforeUpdate -> (list)
Requires that your user verifies their email address, phone number, or both before Amazon Cognito updates the value of that attribute. When you update a user attribute that has this option activated, Amazon Cognito sends a verification message to the new phone number or email address. Amazon Cognito doesn’t change the value of the attribute until your user responds to the verification message and confirms the new value.
You can verify an updated email address or phone number with a VerifyUserAttribute API request. You can also call the AdminUpdateUserAttributes API and set
email_verified
orphone_number_verified
to true.When
AttributesRequireVerificationBeforeUpdate
is false, your user pool doesn't require that your users verify attribute changes before Amazon Cognito updates them. In a user pool whereAttributesRequireVerificationBeforeUpdate
is false, API operations that change attribute values can immediately update a user’sphone_number

field, you activate the Amazon Cognito device-remembering feature.ChallengeRequiredOnNewDevice -> (boolean)
When true, a remembered device can sign in with device authentication instead of SMS and time-based one-time password (TOTP) factors for multi-factor authentication (MFA).
Note
Whether or notChallengeRequiredOnNewDevice
is true, users who sign in with devices that have not been confirmed or remembered must still provide a second factor in a user pool that requires MFA.DeviceOnlyRememberedOnUserPrompt -> (boolean)
When true, Amazon Cognito doesn't automatically remember a user's device when your app sends a ConfirmDevice API request. In your app, create a prompt for your user to choose whether they want to remember their device. Return the user's choice in an UpdateDeviceStatus API request.
When
DeviceOnlyRememberedOnUserPrompt
isfalse
, Amazon Cognito immediately remembers devices that you register in aConfirmDevice
API request.

--email-configuration
(structure)
The email configuration of your user pool. The email configuration type sets your preferred sending method, Amazon Web Services Region, and sender for messages from your user pool.
SourceArn -> (string)
The ARN of a verified email address or an address from a verified domain in Amazon SES. You can set a
SourceArn
email from a verified domain only with an API request. You can set a verified email address, but not an address in a verified domain, in the Amazon Cognito console. Amazon Cognito uses the email address that you provide in one of the following ways, depending on the value that you specify for theEmailSendingAccount
parameter:
- If you specify
COGNITO_DEFAULT
, Amazon Cognito uses this address as the custom FROM address when it emails your users using its built-in email account.- If you specify
DEVELOPER
, Amazon Cognito emails your users with this address by calling Amazon SES on your behalf.The Region value of the
SourceArn
parameter must indicate a supported Amazon Web Services Region of your user pool. Typically, the Region in theSourceArn
and the user pool Region are the same. For more information, see Amazon SES email configuration regions in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .ReplyToEmailAddress -> (string)
The destination to which the receiver of the email should reply.EmailSendingAccount -> (string)
Specifies whether Amazon Cognito uses its built-in functionality to send your users email messages, or uses your Amazon Simple Email Service email configuration. Specify one of the following values:
COGNITO_DEFAULTWhen Amazon Cognito emails your users, it uses its built-in email functionality. When you use the default option, Amazon Cognito allows only a limited number of emails each day for your user pool. For typical production environments, the default email limit is less than the required delivery volume. To achieve a higher delivery volume, specify DEVELOPER to use your Amazon SES email configuration.
To look up the email delivery limit for the default option, see Limits in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .
The default FROM address is
no-reply@verificationemail.com
. To customize the FROM address, provide the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an Amazon SES verified email address for theSourceArn
parameter.DEVELOPERWhen Amazon Cognito emails your users, it uses your Amazon SES configuration. Amazon Cognito calls Amazon SES on your behalf to send email from your verified email address. When you use this option, the email delivery limits are the same limits that apply to your Amazon SES verified email address in your Amazon Web Services account.
If you use this option, provide the ARN of an Amazon SES verified email address for the
SourceArn
parameter.Before Amazon Cognito can email your users, it requires additional permissions to call Amazon SES on your behalf. When you update your user pool with this option, Amazon Cognito creates a service-linked role , which is a type of role in your Amazon Web Services account. This role contains the permissions that allow you to access Amazon SES and send email messages from your email address. For more information about the service-linked role that Amazon Cognito creates, see Using Service-Linked Roles for Amazon Cognito in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .
From -> (string)
Either the sender’s email address or the sender’s name with their email address. For example,testuser@example.com
orTest User <testuser@example.com>
. This address appears before the body of the email.ConfigurationSet -> (string)
The set of configuration rules that can be applied to emails sent using Amazon Simple Email Service. A configuration set is applied to an email by including a reference to the configuration set in the headers of the email. Once applied, all of the rules in that configuration set are applied to the email. Configuration sets can be used to apply the following types of rules to emails:
Event publishingAmazon Simple Email Service can track the number of send, delivery, open, click, bounce, and complaint events for each email sent. Use event publishing to send information about these events to other Amazon Web Services services such as and Amazon CloudWatch
IP pool managementWhen leasing dedicated IP addresses with Amazon Simple Email Service, you can create groups of IP addresses, called dedicated IP pools. You can then associate the dedicated IP pools with configuration sets.

SnsCallerArn -> (string)
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Amazon SNS caller. This is the ARN of the IAM role in your Amazon Web Services account that Amazon Cognito will use to send SMS messages. SMS messages are subject to a spending limit .ExternalId -> (string)
The external ID provides additional security for your IAM role. You can use an
ExternalId
with the IAM role that you use with Amazon SNS to send SMS messages for your user pool. If you provide anExternalId
, your Amazon Cognito user pool includes it in the request to assume your IAM role. You can configure the role trust policy to require that Amazon Cognito, and any principal, provide theExternalID
. If you use the Amazon Cognito Management Console to create a role for SMS multi-factor authentication (MFA), Amazon Cognito creates a role with the required permissions and a trust policy that demonstrates use of theExternalId
.For more information about the
ExternalId
of a role, see How to use an external ID when granting access to your Amazon Web Services resources to a third partySnsRegion -> (string)
The Amazon Web Services Region to use with Amazon SNS integration. You can choose the same Region as your user pool, or a supported Legacy Amazon SNS alternate Region .

custom:
prefix, and developer attributes with adev:
prefix. For more information, see User pool attributes .Developer-only attributes are a legacy feature of user pools, are read-only to all app clients. You can create and update developer-only attributes only with IAM-authenticated API operations. Use app client read/write permissions instead.
Name -> (string)
The name of your user pool attribute. When you create or update a user pool, adding a schema attribute creates a custom or developer-only attribute. When you add an attribute with aName
value ofMyAttribute
, Amazon Cognito creates the custom attributecustom:MyAttribute

istrue
, Amazon Cognito creates your attribute asdev:MyAttribute
. In an operation that describes a user pool, Amazon Cognito returns this value asvalue
for standard attributes,custom:value
for custom attributes, anddev:value
for developer-only attributes..AttributeDataType -> (string)
The data format of the values for your attribute. When you choose anAttributeDataType
, Amazon Cognito validates the input against the data type. A custom attribute value in your user's ID token is always a string, for example"custom:isMember" : "true"

.DeveloperOnlyAttribute -> (boolean)
Note
You should use WriteAttributes in the user pool client to control how attributes can be mutated for new use cases instead of usingDeveloperOnlyAttribute
.Specifies whether the attribute type is developer only. This attribute can only be modified by an administrator. Users won't be able to modify this attribute using their access token. For example,
DeveloperOnlyAttribute
can be modified using AdminUpdateUserAttributes but can't be updated using UpdateUserAttributes.Mutable -> (boolean)
Specifies whether the value of the attribute can be changed.
Any user pool attribute whose value you map from an IdP attribute must be mutable, with a parameter value of
true
. Amazon Cognito updates mapped attributes when users sign in to your application through an IdP. If an attribute is immutable, Amazon Cognito throws an error when it attempts to update the attribute. For more information, see Specifying Identity Provider Attribute Mappings for Your User Pool .Required -> (boolean)

, or for email,email@example.com
orEMaiL@eXamplE.Com
. For most use cases, set case sensitivity toFalse
(case insensitive) as a best practice. When usernames and email addresses are case insensitive, Amazon Cognito treats any variation in case as the same user, and prevents a case variation from being assigned to the same attribute for a different user.This configuration is immutable after you set it. For more information, see UsernameConfigurationType .
CaseSensitive -> (boolean)
Specifies whether user name case sensitivity will be applied for all users in the user pool through Amazon Cognito APIs. For most use cases, set case sensitivity to
False
(case insensitive) as a best practice. When usernames and email addresses are case insensitive, users can sign in as the same user when they enter a different capitalization of their user name.Valid values include:
TrueEnables case sensitivity for all username input. When this option is set to
True
, users must sign in using the exact capitalization of their given username, such as “UserName”. This is the default value.FalseEnables case insensitivity for all username input. For example, when this option is set to

Specifies whether the value of the attribute can be changed.
Any user pool attribute whose value you map from an IdP attribute must be mutable, with a parameter value of
true
. Amazon Cognito updates mapped attributes when users sign in to your application through an IdP. If an attribute is immutable, Amazon Cognito throws an error when it attempts to update the attribute.

The settings for updates to user attributes. These settings include the property
AttributesRequireVerificationBeforeUpdate
, a user-pool setting that tells Amazon Cognito how to handle changes to the value of your users' email address and phone number attributes. For more information, see Verifying updates to email addresses and phone numbers .AttributesRequireVerificationBeforeUpdate -> (list)
Requires that your user verifies their email address, phone number, or both before Amazon Cognito updates the value of that attribute. When you update a user attribute that has this option activated, Amazon Cognito sends a verification message to the new phone number or email address. Amazon Cognito doesn’t change the value of the attribute until your user responds to the verification message and confirms the new value.
You can verify an updated email address or phone number with a VerifyUserAttribute API request. You can also call the AdminUpdateUserAttributes API and set
email_verified
orphone_number_verified
to true.When
AttributesRequireVerificationBeforeUpdate
is false, your user pool doesn't require that your users verify attribute changes before Amazon Cognito updates them. In a user pool whereAttributesRequireVerificationBeforeUpdate
is false, API operations that change attribute values can immediately update a user’sphone_number
attribute.(string)
MfaConfiguration -> (string)
Can be one of the following values:
OFF
- MFA tokens aren't required and can't be specified during user registration.ON
- MFA tokens are required for all user registrations. You can only specify required when you're initially creating a user pool.OPTIONAL
- Users have the option when registering to create an MFA token.DeviceConfiguration -> (structure)
The device-remembering configuration for a user pool. A null value indicates that you have deactivated device remembering in your user pool.
Note
When you provide a value for anyDeviceConfiguration
field, you activate the Amazon Cognito device-remembering feature.ChallengeRequiredOnNewDevice -> (boolean)
When true, a remembered device can sign in with device authentication instead of SMS and time-based one-time password (TOTP) factors for multi-factor authentication (MFA).
Note
Whether or notChallengeRequiredOnNewDevice
is true, users who sign in with devices that have not been confirmed or remembered must still provide a second factor in a user pool that requires MFA.DeviceOnlyRememberedOnUserPrompt -> (boolean)
When true, Amazon Cognito doesn't automatically remember a user's device when your app sends a ConfirmDevice API request. In your app, create a prompt for your user to choose whether they want to remember their device. Return the user's choice in an UpdateDeviceStatus API request.
When
DeviceOnlyRememberedOnUserPrompt
isfalse
, Amazon Cognito immediately remembers devices that you register in aConfirmDevice
API request.EstimatedNumberOfUsers -> (integer)
A number estimating the size of the user pool.EmailConfiguration -> (structure)
The email configuration of your user pool. The email configuration type sets your preferred sending method, Amazon Web Services Region, and sender for messages from your user pool.
SourceArn -> (string)
The ARN of a verified email address or an address from a verified domain in Amazon SES. You can set a
SourceArn
email from a verified domain only with an API request. You can set a verified email address, but not an address in a verified domain, in the Amazon Cognito console. Amazon Cognito uses the email address that you provide in one of the following ways, depending on the value that you specify for theEmailSendingAccount
parameter:
- If you specify
COGNITO_DEFAULT
, Amazon Cognito uses this address as the custom FROM address when it emails your users using its built-in email account.- If you specify
DEVELOPER
, Amazon Cognito emails your users with this address by calling Amazon SES on your behalf.The Region value of the
SourceArn
parameter must indicate a supported Amazon Web Services Region of your user pool. Typically, the Region in theSourceArn
and the user pool Region are the same. For more information, see Amazon SES email configuration regions in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .ReplyToEmailAddress -> (string)
The destination to which the receiver of the email should reply.EmailSendingAccount -> (string)
Specifies whether Amazon Cognito uses its built-in functionality to send your users email messages, or uses your Amazon Simple Email Service email configuration. Specify one of the following values:
COGNITO_DEFAULTWhen Amazon Cognito emails your users, it uses its built-in email functionality. When you use the default option, Amazon Cognito allows only a limited number of emails each day for your user pool. For typical production environments, the default email limit is less than the required delivery volume. To achieve a higher delivery volume, specify DEVELOPER to use your Amazon SES email configuration.
To look up the email delivery limit for the default option, see Limits in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .
The default FROM address is
no-reply@verificationemail.com
. To customize the FROM address, provide the Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an Amazon SES verified email address for theSourceArn
parameter.DEVELOPERWhen Amazon Cognito emails your users, it uses your Amazon SES configuration. Amazon Cognito calls Amazon SES on your behalf to send email from your verified email address. When you use this option, the email delivery limits are the same limits that apply to your Amazon SES verified email address in your Amazon Web Services account.
If you use this option, provide the ARN of an Amazon SES verified email address for the
SourceArn
parameter.Before Amazon Cognito can email your users, it requires additional permissions to call Amazon SES on your behalf. When you update your user pool with this option, Amazon Cognito creates a service-linked role , which is a type of role in your Amazon Web Services account. This role contains the permissions that allow you to access Amazon SES and send email messages from your email address. For more information about the service-linked role that Amazon Cognito creates, see Using Service-Linked Roles for Amazon Cognito in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .

orTest User <testuser@example.com>
. This address appears before the body of the email.ConfigurationSet -> (string)
The set of configuration rules that can be applied to emails sent using Amazon Simple Email Service. A configuration set is applied to an email by including a reference to the configuration set in the headers of the email. Once applied, all of the rules in that configuration set are applied to the email. Configuration sets can be used to apply the following types of rules to emails:
Event publishingAmazon Simple Email Service can track the number of send, delivery, open, click, bounce, and complaint events for each email sent. Use event publishing to send information about these events to other Amazon Web Services services such as and Amazon CloudWatch
IP pool managementWhen leasing dedicated IP addresses with Amazon Simple Email Service, you can create groups of IP addresses, called dedicated IP pools. You can then associate the dedicated IP pools with configuration sets.
SmsConfiguration -> (structure)
The SMS configuration with the settings that your Amazon Cognito user pool must use to send an SMS message from your Amazon Web Services account through Amazon Simple Notification Service. To send SMS messages with Amazon SNS in the Amazon Web Services Region that you want, the Amazon Cognito user pool uses an Identity and Access Management (IAM) role in your Amazon Web Services account.
SnsCallerArn -> (string)
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Amazon SNS caller. This is the ARN of the IAM role in your Amazon Web Services account that Amazon Cognito will use to send SMS messages. SMS messages are subject to a spending limit .ExternalId -> (string)
The external ID provides additional security for your IAM role. You can use an
ExternalId
with the IAM role that you use with Amazon SNS to send SMS messages for your user pool. If you provide anExternalId
, your Amazon Cognito user pool includes it in the request to assume your IAM role. You can configure the role trust policy to require that Amazon Cognito, and any principal, provide theExternalID
. If you use the Amazon Cognito Management Console to create a role for SMS multi-factor authentication (MFA), Amazon Cognito creates a role with the required permissions and a trust policy that demonstrates use of theExternalId
.For more information about the
ExternalId
of a role, see How to use an external ID when granting access to your Amazon Web Services resources to a third partySnsRegion -> (string)
The Amazon Web Services Region to use with Amazon SNS integration. You can choose the same Region as your user pool, or a supported Legacy Amazon SNS alternate Region .

The reason why the SMS configuration can't send the messages to your users.
This message might include comma-separated values to describe why your SMS configuration can't send messages to user pool end users.
InvalidSmsRoleAccessPolicyExceptionThe Identity and Access Management role that Amazon Cognito uses to send SMS messages isn't properly configured. For more information, see SmsConfigurationType .
SNSSandboxThe Amazon Web Services account is in the SNS SMS Sandbox and messages will only reach verified end users. This parameter won’t get populated with SNSSandbox if the user creating the user pool doesn’t have SNS permissions. To learn how to move your Amazon Web Services account out of the sandbox, see Moving out of the SMS sandbox .
EmailConfigurationFailure -> (string)
Deprecated. Review error codes from API requests withEventSource:cognito-idp.amazonaws.com
in CloudTrail for information about problems with user pool email configuration.Domain -> (string)
The domain prefix, if the user pool has a domain associated with it.CustomDomain -> (string)
A custom domain name that you provide to Amazon Cognito. This parameter applies only if you use a custom domain to host the sign-up and sign-in pages for your application. An example of a custom domain name might be
auth.example.com
.For more information about adding a custom domain to your user pool, see Using Your Own Domain for the Hosted UI .
AdminCreateUserConfig -> (structure)
The configuration for
AdminCreateUser
requests.AllowAdminCreateUserOnly -> (boolean)

if only the administrator is allowed to create user profiles. Set toFalse
if users can sign themselves up via an app.UnusedAccountValidityDays -> (integer)
The user account expiration limit, in days, after which a new account that hasn't signed in is no longer usable. To reset the account after that time limit, you must call
AdminCreateUser
again, specifying"RESEND"
for theMessageAction
parameter. The default value for this parameter is 7.Note
If you set a value forTemporaryPasswordValidityDays
inPasswordPolicy
, that value will be used, andUnusedAccountValidityDays
will be no longer be an available parameter for that user pool.InviteMessageTemplate -> (structure)

False
, users can sign in using either "username" or "Username". This configuration is immutable once it has been set. For more information, see UsernameConfigurationType .CaseSensitive -> (boolean)
Specifies whether user name case sensitivity will be applied for all users in the user pool through Amazon Cognito APIs. For most use cases, set case sensitivity to
False
(case insensitive) as a best practice. When usernames and email addresses are case insensitive, users can sign in as the same user when they enter a different capitalization of their user name.Valid values include:
TrueEnables case sensitivity for all username input. When this option is set to
True
, users must sign in using the exact capitalization of their given username, such as “UserName”. This is the default value.FalseEnables case insensitivity for all username input. For example, when this option is set to
False
, users can sign in usingusername
,USERNAME
, orUserName
. This option also enables bothpreferred_username
andusername
attribute.Arn -> (string)
The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) for the user pool.AccountRecoverySetting -> (structure)
The available verified method a user can use to recover their password when they call
ForgotPassword
. You can use this setting to define a preferred method when a user has more than one method available. With this setting, SMS doesn't qualify for a valid password recovery mechanism if the user also has SMS multi-factor authentication (MFA) activated. In the absence of this setting, Amazon Cognito uses the legacy behavior to determine the recovery method where SMS is preferred through email.RecoveryMechanisms -> (list)
