Adds a configuration and trust relationship between a third-party identity provider (IdP) and a user pool¶

Description¶

Adds a 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.

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.

Usage¶

cognitoidentityprovider_create_identity_provider(UserPoolId,
  ProviderName, ProviderType, ProviderDetails, AttributeMapping,
  IdpIdentifiers, AcrMapping)

Arguments¶

• UserPoolId

  [required] The Id of the user pool where you want to create an IdP.

• ProviderName

  [required] The name that you want to assign to the IdP. You can pass the identity provider name in the identity_provider query parameter of requests to the Authorize endpoint to silently redirect to sign-in with the associated IdP.

• ProviderType

  [required] The type of IdP that you want to add. Amazon Cognito supports OIDC, SAML 2.0, Login With Amazon, Sign In With Apple, Google, and Facebook IdPs.

• ProviderDetails

  [required] 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.

  Create or update request: "ProviderDetails": { "attributes_request_method": "GET", "attributes_url": "https://auth.example.com/userInfo", "authorize_scopes": "openid profile email", "authorize_url": "https://auth.example.com/authorize", "client_id": "1example23456789", "client_secret": "provider-app-client-secret", "jwks_uri": "https://auth.example.com/.well-known/jwks.json", "oidc_issuer": "https://auth.example.com", "token_url": "https://example.com/token" }

• 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.

• 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.

• AcrMapping

  A mapping between the authentication context class reference (ACR) levels of your user pool and the ACR values of the external OpenID Connect (OIDC) identity provider (IdP). The map is keyed by level, from Level1 through Level4, and each value is the ACR value that the IdP uses for the corresponding level. Amazon Cognito uses this mapping to translate a requested user pool ACR level to the value that the IdP expects, and to map an ACR value that the IdP returns back to a user pool level. When the IdP returns an ACR value that isn't mapped, Amazon Cognito resolves it to the lowest level. Only OIDC IdPs support ACR mapping.

  Setting AcrMapping is available in all feature plans. It isn't restricted to the Essentials or Plus feature plan.
