Verify User Attribute

cognitoidentityprovider_verify_user_attribute R Documentation

Submits a verification code for a signed-in user who has added or changed a value of an auto-verified attribute

Description

Submits a verification code for a signed-in user who has added or changed a value of an auto-verified attribute. When successful, the user's attribute becomes verified and the attribute email_verified or phone_number_verified becomes true.

If your user pool requires verification before Amazon Cognito updates the attribute value, this operation updates the affected attribute to its pending value.

Authorize this action with a signed-in user's access token. It must include the scope aws.cognito.signin.user.admin.

Amazon Cognito doesn't evaluate Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies in requests for this API operation. For this operation, you can't use IAM credentials to authorize requests, and you can't grant IAM permissions in policies. For more information about authorization models in Amazon Cognito, see Using the Amazon Cognito user pools API and user pool endpoints.
