Options

--user-pool-id (string)

The user pool ID for the user pool where you want to create a user pool client.

--client-name (string)

The client name for the user pool client you would like to create.

--generate-secret | --no-generate-secret (boolean)

Boolean to specify whether you want to generate a secret for the user pool client being created.

--refresh-token-validity (integer)

The refresh token time limit. After this limit expires, your user can’t use their refresh token. To specify the time unit for RefreshTokenValidity as seconds , minutes , hours , or days , set a TokenValidityUnits value in your API request.

For example, when you set RefreshTokenValidity as 10 and TokenValidityUnits as days , your user can refresh their session and retrieve new access and ID tokens for 10 days.

The default time unit for RefreshTokenValidity in an API request is days. You can’t set RefreshTokenValidity to 0. If you do, Amazon Cognito overrides the value with the default value of 30 days. Valid range is displayed below in seconds.

If you don’t specify otherwise in the configuration of your app client, your refresh tokens are valid for 30 days.

--access-token-validity (integer)

The access token time limit. After this limit expires, your user can’t use their access token. To specify the time unit for AccessTokenValidity as seconds , minutes , hours , or days , set a TokenValidityUnits value in your API request.

For example, when you set AccessTokenValidity to 10 and TokenValidityUnits to hours , your user can authorize access with their access token for 10 hours.

The default time unit for AccessTokenValidity in an API request is hours. Valid range is displayed below in seconds.

If you don’t specify otherwise in the configuration of your app client, your access tokens are valid for one hour.

--id-token-validity (integer)

The ID token time limit. After this limit expires, your user can’t use their ID token. To specify the time unit for IdTokenValidity as seconds , minutes , hours , or days , set a TokenValidityUnits value in your API request.

For example, when you set IdTokenValidity as 10 and TokenValidityUnits as hours , your user can authenticate their session with their ID token for 10 hours.

The default time unit for IdTokenValidity in an API request is hours. Valid range is displayed below in seconds.

If you don’t specify otherwise in the configuration of your app client, your ID tokens are valid for one hour.

--token-validity-units (structure)

The units in which the validity times are represented. The default unit for RefreshToken is days, and default for ID and access tokens are hours.

AccessToken -> (string)

A time unit of seconds , minutes , hours , or days for the value that you set in the AccessTokenValidity parameter. The default AccessTokenValidity time unit is hours. AccessTokenValidity duration can range from five minutes to one day.

IdToken -> (string)

A time unit of seconds , minutes , hours , or days for the value that you set in the IdTokenValidity parameter. The default IdTokenValidity time unit is hours. IdTokenValidity duration can range from five minutes to one day.

RefreshToken -> (string)

A time unit of seconds , minutes , hours , or days for the value that you set in the RefreshTokenValidity parameter. The default RefreshTokenValidity time unit is days. RefreshTokenValidity duration can range from 60 minutes to 10 years.

Shorthand Syntax:

AccessToken=string,IdToken=string,RefreshToken=string

JSON Syntax:

{
  "AccessToken": "seconds"|"minutes"|"hours"|"days",
  "IdToken": "seconds"|"minutes"|"hours"|"days",
  "RefreshToken": "seconds"|"minutes"|"hours"|"days"
}

--read-attributes (list)

The list of user attributes that you want your app client to have read access to. After your user authenticates in your app, their access token authorizes them to read their own attribute value for any attribute in this list. An example of this kind of activity is when your user selects a link to view their profile information. Your app makes a GetUser API request to retrieve and display your user’s profile data.

When you don’t specify the ReadAttributes for your app client, your app can read the values of email_verified , phone_number_verified , and the Standard attributes of your user pool. When your user pool app client has read access to these default attributes, ReadAttributes doesn’t return any information. Amazon Cognito only populates ReadAttributes in the API response if you have specified your own custom set of read attributes.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--write-attributes (list)

The list of user attributes that you want your app client to have write access to. After your user authenticates in your app, their access token authorizes them to set or modify their own attribute value for any attribute in this list. An example of this kind of activity is when you present your user with a form to update their profile information and they change their last name. Your app then makes an UpdateUserAttributes API request and sets family_name to the new value.

When you don’t specify the WriteAttributes for your app client, your app can write the values of the Standard attributes of your user pool. When your user pool has write access to these default attributes, WriteAttributes doesn’t return any information. Amazon Cognito only populates WriteAttributes in the API response if you have specified your own custom set of write attributes.

If your app client allows users to sign in through an IdP, this array must include all attributes that you have mapped to IdP attributes. Amazon Cognito updates mapped attributes when users sign in to your application through an IdP. If your app client does not have write access to a mapped attribute, Amazon Cognito throws an error when it tries to update the attribute. For more information, see Specifying IdP Attribute Mappings for Your user pool .

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--explicit-auth-flows (list)

The authentication flows that you want your user pool client to support. For each app client in your user pool, you can sign in your users with any combination of one or more flows, including with a user name and Secure Remote Password (SRP), a user name and password, or a custom authentication process that you define with Lambda functions.

Note

If you don’t specify a value for ExplicitAuthFlows , your user client supports ALLOW_REFRESH_TOKEN_AUTH , ALLOW_USER_SRP_AUTH , and ALLOW_CUSTOM_AUTH .

Valid values include:

  • ALLOW_ADMIN_USER_PASSWORD_AUTH : Enable admin based user password authentication flow ADMIN_USER_PASSWORD_AUTH . This setting replaces the ADMIN_NO_SRP_AUTH setting. With this authentication flow, your app passes a user name and password to Amazon Cognito in the request, instead of using the Secure Remote Password (SRP) protocol to securely transmit the password.
  • ALLOW_CUSTOM_AUTH : Enable Lambda trigger based authentication.
  • ALLOW_USER_PASSWORD_AUTH : Enable user password-based authentication. In this flow, Amazon Cognito receives the password in the request instead of using the SRP protocol to verify passwords.
  • ALLOW_USER_SRP_AUTH : Enable SRP-based authentication.
  • ALLOW_REFRESH_TOKEN_AUTH : Enable authflow to refresh tokens.

In some environments, you will see the values ADMIN_NO_SRP_AUTH , CUSTOM_AUTH_FLOW_ONLY , or USER_PASSWORD_AUTH . You can’t assign these legacy ExplicitAuthFlows values to user pool clients at the same time as values that begin with ALLOW_ , like ALLOW_USER_SRP_AUTH .

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

Where valid values are:
  ADMIN_NO_SRP_AUTH
  CUSTOM_AUTH_FLOW_ONLY
  USER_PASSWORD_AUTH
  ALLOW_ADMIN_USER_PASSWORD_AUTH
  ALLOW_CUSTOM_AUTH
  ALLOW_USER_PASSWORD_AUTH
  ALLOW_USER_SRP_AUTH
  ALLOW_REFRESH_TOKEN_AUTH

--supported-identity-providers (list)

A list of provider names for the identity providers (IdPs) that are supported on this client. The following are supported: COGNITO , Facebook , Google , SignInWithApple , and LoginWithAmazon . You can also specify the names that you configured for the SAML and OIDC IdPs in your user pool, for example MySAMLIdP or MyOIDCIdP .

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--callback-urls (list)

A list of allowed redirect (callback) URLs for the IdPs.

A redirect URI must:

  • Be an absolute URI.
  • Be registered with the authorization server.
  • Not include a fragment component.

See OAuth 2.0 - Redirection Endpoint .

Amazon Cognito requires HTTPS over HTTP except for http://localhost for testing purposes only.

App callback URLs such as myapp://example are also supported.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--logout-urls (list)

A list of allowed logout URLs for the IdPs.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--default-redirect-uri (string)

The default redirect URI. In app clients with one assigned IdP, replaces redirect_uri in authentication requests. Must be in the CallbackURLs list.

A redirect URI must:

  • Be an absolute URI.
  • Be registered with the authorization server.
  • Not include a fragment component.

For more information, see Default redirect URI .

Amazon Cognito requires HTTPS over HTTP except for http://localhost for testing purposes only.

App callback URLs such as myapp://example are also supported.

--allowed-o-auth-flows (list)

The OAuth grant types that you want your app client to generate. To create an app client that generates client credentials grants, you must add client_credentials as the only allowed OAuth flow.

code

Use a code grant flow, which provides an authorization code as the response. This code can be exchanged for access tokens with the /oauth2/token endpoint.

implicit

Issue the access token (and, optionally, ID token, based on scopes) directly to your user.

client_credentials

Issue the access token from the /oauth2/token endpoint directly to a non-person user using a combination of the client ID and client secret.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

Where valid values are:
  code
  implicit
  client_credentials

--allowed-o-auth-scopes (list)

The allowed OAuth scopes. Possible values provided by OAuth are phone , email , openid , and profile . Possible values provided by Amazon Web Services are aws.cognito.signin.user.admin . Custom scopes created in Resource Servers are also supported.

(string)

Syntax:

"string" "string" ...

--allowed-o-auth-flows-user-pool-client | --no-allowed-o-auth-flows-user-pool-client (boolean)

Set to true to use OAuth 2.0 features in your user pool app client.

AllowedOAuthFlowsUserPoolClient must be true before you can configure the following features in your app client.
  • CallBackURLs : Callback URLs.
  • LogoutURLs : Sign-out redirect URLs.
  • AllowedOAuthScopes : OAuth 2.0 scopes.
  • AllowedOAuthFlows : Support for authorization code, implicit, and client credentials OAuth 2.0 grants.

To use OAuth 2.0 features, configure one of these features in the Amazon Cognito console or set AllowedOAuthFlowsUserPoolClient to true in a CreateUserPoolClient or UpdateUserPoolClient API request. If you don’t set a value for AllowedOAuthFlowsUserPoolClient in a request with the CLI or SDKs, it defaults to false .

--analytics-configuration (structure)

The user pool analytics configuration for collecting metrics and sending them to your Amazon Pinpoint campaign.

Note

In Amazon Web Services Regions where Amazon Pinpoint isn’t available, user pools only support sending events to Amazon Pinpoint projects in Amazon Web Services Region us-east-1. In Regions where Amazon Pinpoint is available, user pools support sending events to Amazon Pinpoint projects within that same Region.

ApplicationId -> (string)

The application ID for an Amazon Pinpoint application.

ApplicationArn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an Amazon Pinpoint project. You can use the Amazon Pinpoint project to integrate with the chosen user pool Client. Amazon Cognito publishes events to the Amazon Pinpoint project that the app ARN declares.

RoleArn -> (string)

The ARN of an Identity and Access Management role that authorizes Amazon Cognito to publish events to Amazon Pinpoint analytics.

ExternalId -> (string)

The external ID.

UserDataShared -> (boolean)

If UserDataShared is true , Amazon Cognito includes user data in the events that it publishes to Amazon Pinpoint analytics.

Shorthand Syntax:

ApplicationId=string,ApplicationArn=string,RoleArn=string,ExternalId=string,UserDataShared=boolean

JSON Syntax:

{
  "ApplicationId": "string",
  "ApplicationArn": "string",
  "RoleArn": "string",
  "ExternalId": "string",
  "UserDataShared": true|false
}

--prevent-user-existence-errors (string)

Errors and responses that you want Amazon Cognito APIs to return during authentication, account confirmation, and password recovery when the user doesn’t exist in the user pool. When set to ENABLED and the user doesn’t exist, authentication returns an error indicating either the username or password was incorrect. Account confirmation and password recovery return a response indicating a code was sent to a simulated destination. When set to LEGACY , those APIs return a UserNotFoundException exception if the user doesn’t exist in the user pool.

Valid values include:

  • ENABLED - This prevents user existence-related errors.
  • LEGACY - This represents the early behavior of Amazon Cognito where user existence related errors aren’t prevented.

Defaults to LEGACY when you don’t provide a value.

Possible values:

  • LEGACY
  • ENABLED

--enable-token-revocation | --no-enable-token-revocation (boolean)

Activates or deactivates token revocation. For more information about revoking tokens, see RevokeToken .

If you don’t include this parameter, token revocation is automatically activated for the new user pool client.

--enable-propagate-additional-user-context-data | --no-enable-propagate-additional-user-context-data (boolean)

Activates the propagation of additional user context data. For more information about propagation of user context data, see Adding advanced security to a user pool . If you don’t include this parameter, you can’t send device fingerprint information, including source IP address, to Amazon Cognito advanced security. You can only activate EnablePropagateAdditionalUserContextData in an app client that has a client secret.

--auth-session-validity (integer)

Amazon Cognito creates a session token for each API request in an authentication flow. AuthSessionValidity is the duration, in minutes, of that session token. Your user pool native user must respond to each authentication challenge before the session expires.

--cli-input-json | --cli-input-yaml (string) Reads arguments from the JSON string provided. The JSON string follows the format provided by --generate-cli-skeleton. If other arguments are provided on the command line, those values will override the JSON-provided values. It is not possible to pass arbitrary binary values using a JSON-provided value as the string will be taken literally. This may not be specified along with --cli-input-yaml.

--generate-cli-skeleton (string) Prints a JSON skeleton to standard output without sending an API request. If provided with no value or the value input, prints a sample input JSON that can be used as an argument for --cli-input-json. Similarly, if provided yaml-input it will print a sample input YAML that can be used with --cli-input-yaml. If provided with the value output, it validates the command inputs and returns a sample output JSON for that command. The generated JSON skeleton is not stable between versions of the AWS CLI and there are no backwards compatibility guarantees in the JSON skeleton generated.

Global Options

--debug (boolean)

Turn on debug logging.

--endpoint-url (string)

Override command’s default URL with the given URL.

--no-verify-ssl (boolean)

By default, the AWS CLI uses SSL when communicating with AWS services. For each SSL connection, the AWS CLI will verify SSL certificates. This option overrides the default behavior of verifying SSL certificates.

--no-paginate (boolean)

Disable automatic pagination. If automatic pagination is disabled, the AWS CLI will only make one call, for the first page of results.

--output (string)

The formatting style for command output.

  • json
  • text
  • table
  • yaml
  • yaml-stream

--query (string)

A JMESPath query to use in filtering the response data.

--profile (string)

Use a specific profile from your credential file.

--region (string)

The region to use. Overrides config/env settings.

--version (string)

Display the version of this tool.

--color (string)

Turn on/off color output.

  • on
  • off
  • auto

--no-sign-request (boolean)

Do not sign requests. Credentials will not be loaded if this argument is provided.

--ca-bundle (string)

The CA certificate bundle to use when verifying SSL certificates. Overrides config/env settings.

--cli-read-timeout (int)

The maximum socket read time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket read will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-connect-timeout (int)

The maximum socket connect time in seconds. If the value is set to 0, the socket connect will be blocking and not timeout. The default value is 60 seconds.

--cli-binary-format (string)

The formatting style to be used for binary blobs. The default format is base64. The base64 format expects binary blobs to be provided as a base64 encoded string. The raw-in-base64-out format preserves compatibility with AWS CLI V1 behavior and binary values must be passed literally. When providing contents from a file that map to a binary blob fileb:// will always be treated as binary and use the file contents directly regardless of the cli-binary-format setting. When using file:// the file contents will need to properly formatted for the configured cli-binary-format.

  • base64
  • raw-in-base64-out

--no-cli-pager (boolean)

Disable cli pager for output.

--cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Automatically prompt for CLI input parameters.

--no-cli-auto-prompt (boolean)

Examples

Note

To use the following examples, you must have the AWS CLI installed and configured. See the Getting started guide in the AWS CLI User Guide for more information.

Unless otherwise stated, all examples have unix-like quotation rules. These examples will need to be adapted to your terminal’s quoting rules. See Using quotation marks with strings in the AWS CLI User Guide .

To create a user pool client

This example creates a new user pool client with two explicit authorization flows: USER_PASSWORD_AUTH and ADMIN_NO_SRP_AUTH.

Command:

aws cognito-idp create-user-pool-client --user-pool-id us-west-2_aaaaaaaaa  --client-name MyNewClient --no-generate-secret --explicit-auth-flows "USER_PASSWORD_AUTH" "ADMIN_NO_SRP_AUTH"

The client name from the user pool request of the client type.

ClientId -> (string)

The ID of the client associated with the user pool.

ClientSecret -> (string)

The client secret from the user pool request of the client type.

LastModifiedDate -> (timestamp)

The date and time when the item was modified. Amazon Cognito returns this timestamp in UNIX epoch time format. Your SDK might render the output in a human-readable format like ISO 8601 or a Java Date object.

CreationDate -> (timestamp)

The date and time when the item was created. Amazon Cognito returns this timestamp in UNIX epoch time format. Your SDK might render the output in a human-readable format like ISO 8601 or a Java Date object.

RefreshTokenValidity -> (integer)

The refresh token time limit. After this limit expires, your user can’t use their refresh token. To specify the time unit for RefreshTokenValidity as seconds , minutes , hours , or days , set a TokenValidityUnits value in your API request.

For example, when you set RefreshTokenValidity as 10 and TokenValidityUnits as days , your user can refresh their session and retrieve new access and ID tokens for 10 days.

The default time unit for RefreshTokenValidity in an API request is days. You can’t set RefreshTokenValidity to 0. If you do, Amazon Cognito overrides the value with the default value of 30 days. Valid range is displayed below in seconds.

If you don’t specify otherwise in the configuration of your app client, your refresh tokens are valid for 30 days.

AccessTokenValidity -> (integer)

The access token time limit. After this limit expires, your user can’t use their access token. To specify the time unit for AccessTokenValidity as seconds , minutes , hours , or days , set a TokenValidityUnits value in your API request.

For example, when you set AccessTokenValidity to 10 and TokenValidityUnits to hours , your user can authorize access with their access token for 10 hours.

The default time unit for AccessTokenValidity in an API request is hours. Valid range is displayed below in seconds.

If you don’t specify otherwise in the configuration of your app client, your access tokens are valid for one hour.

IdTokenValidity -> (integer)

The ID token time limit. After this limit expires, your user can’t use their ID token. To specify the time unit for IdTokenValidity as seconds , minutes , hours , or days , set a TokenValidityUnits value in your API request.

For example, when you set IdTokenValidity as 10 and TokenValidityUnits as hours , your user can authenticate their session with their ID token for 10 hours.

The default time unit for IdTokenValidity in an API request is hours. Valid range is displayed below in seconds.

If you don’t specify otherwise in the configuration of your app client, your ID tokens are valid for one hour.

TokenValidityUnits -> (structure)

The time units used to specify the token validity times of each token type: ID, access, and refresh.

AccessToken -> (string)

A time unit of seconds , minutes , hours , or days for the value that you set in the AccessTokenValidity parameter. The default AccessTokenValidity time unit is hours. AccessTokenValidity duration can range from five minutes to one day.

IdToken -> (string)

A time unit of seconds , minutes , hours , or days for the value that you set in the IdTokenValidity parameter. The default IdTokenValidity time unit is hours. IdTokenValidity duration can range from five minutes to one day.

RefreshToken -> (string)

A time unit of seconds , minutes , hours , or days for the value that you set in the RefreshTokenValidity parameter. The default RefreshTokenValidity time unit is days. RefreshTokenValidity duration can range from 60 minutes to 10 years.

ReadAttributes -> (list)

The list of user attributes that you want your app client to have read access to. After your user authenticates in your app, their access token authorizes them to read their own attribute value for any attribute in this list. An example of this kind of activity is when your user selects a link to view their profile information. Your app makes a GetUser API request to retrieve and display your user’s profile data.

When you don’t specify the ReadAttributes for your app client, your app can read the values of email_verified , phone_number_verified , and the Standard attributes of your user pool. When your user pool app client has read access to these default attributes, ReadAttributes doesn’t return any information. Amazon Cognito only populates ReadAttributes in the API response if you have specified your own custom set of read attributes.

(string)

WriteAttributes -> (list)

The list of user attributes that you want your app client to have write access to. After your user authenticates in your app, their access token authorizes them to set or modify their own attribute value for any attribute in this list. An example of this kind of activity is when you present your user with a form to update their profile information and they change their last name. Your app then makes an UpdateUserAttributes API request and sets family_name to the new value.

When you don’t specify the WriteAttributes for your app client, your app can write the values of the Standard attributes of your user pool. When your user pool has write access to these default attributes, WriteAttributes doesn’t return any information. Amazon Cognito only populates WriteAttributes in the API response if you have specified your own custom set of write attributes.

If your app client allows users to sign in through an IdP, this array must include all attributes that you have mapped to IdP attributes. Amazon Cognito updates mapped attributes when users sign in to your application through an IdP. If your app client does not have write access to a mapped attribute, Amazon Cognito throws an error when it tries to update the attribute. For more information, see Specifying IdP Attribute Mappings for Your user pool .

(string)

ExplicitAuthFlows -> (list)

The authentication flows that you want your user pool client to support. For each app client in your user pool, you can sign in your users with any combination of one or more flows, including with a user name and Secure Remote Password (SRP), a user name and password, or a custom authentication process that you define with Lambda functions.

Note

If you don’t specify a value for ExplicitAuthFlows , your user client supports ALLOW_REFRESH_TOKEN_AUTH , ALLOW_USER_SRP_AUTH , and ALLOW_CUSTOM_AUTH .

Valid values include:

  • ALLOW_ADMIN_USER_PASSWORD_AUTH : Enable admin based user password authentication flow ADMIN_USER_PASSWORD_AUTH . This setting replaces the ADMIN_NO_SRP_AUTH setting. With this authentication flow, your app passes a user name and password to Amazon Cognito in the request, instead of using the Secure Remote Password (SRP) protocol to securely transmit the password.
  • ALLOW_CUSTOM_AUTH : Enable Lambda trigger based authentication.
  • ALLOW_USER_PASSWORD_AUTH : Enable user password-based authentication. In this flow, Amazon Cognito receives the password in the request instead of using the SRP protocol to verify passwords.
  • ALLOW_USER_SRP_AUTH : Enable SRP-based authentication.
  • ALLOW_REFRESH_TOKEN_AUTH : Enable authflow to refresh tokens.

In some environments, you will see the values ADMIN_NO_SRP_AUTH , CUSTOM_AUTH_FLOW_ONLY , or USER_PASSWORD_AUTH . You can’t assign these legacy ExplicitAuthFlows values to user pool clients at the same time as values that begin with ALLOW_ , like ALLOW_USER_SRP_AUTH .

(string)

The application ID for an Amazon Pinpoint application.

ApplicationArn -> (string)

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of an Amazon Pinpoint project. You can use the Amazon Pinpoint project to integrate with the chosen user pool Client. Amazon Cognito publishes events to the Amazon Pinpoint project that the app ARN declares.

RoleArn -> (string)

The ARN of an Identity and Access Management role that authorizes Amazon Cognito to publish events to Amazon Pinpoint analytics.

ExternalId -> (string)

The external ID.

UserDataShared -> (boolean)

If UserDataShared is true , Amazon Cognito includes user data in the events that it publishes to Amazon Pinpoint analytics.

PreventUserExistenceErrors -> (string)

Errors and responses that you want Amazon Cognito APIs to return during authentication, account confirmation, and password recovery when the user doesn’t exist in the user pool. When set to ENABLED and the user doesn’t exist, authentication returns an error indicating either the username or password was incorrect. Account confirmation and password recovery return a response indicating a code was sent to a simulated destination. When set to LEGACY , those APIs return a UserNotFoundException exception if the user doesn’t exist in the user pool.

Valid values include:

  • ENABLED - This prevents user existence-related errors.
  • LEGACY - This represents the early behavior of Amazon Cognito where user existence related errors aren’t prevented.

Defaults to LEGACY when you don’t provide a value.

EnableTokenRevocation -> (boolean)

Indicates whether token revocation is activated for the user pool client. When you create a new user pool client, token revocation is activated by default. For more information about revoking tokens, see RevokeToken .

EnablePropagateAdditionalUserContextData -> (boolean)

When EnablePropagateAdditionalUserContextData is true, Amazon Cognito accepts an IpAddress value that you send in the UserContextData parameter. The UserContextData parameter sends information to Amazon Cognito advanced security for risk analysis. You can send UserContextData when you sign in Amazon Cognito native users with the InitiateAuth and RespondToAuthChallenge API operations.

When EnablePropagateAdditionalUserContextData is false, you can’t send your user’s source IP address to Amazon Cognito advanced security with unauthenticated API operations. EnablePropagateAdditionalUserContextData doesn’t affect whether you can send a source IP address in a ContextData parameter with the authenticated API operations AdminInitiateAuth and AdminRespondToAuthChallenge .

You can only activate EnablePropagateAdditionalUserContextData in an app client that has a client secret. For more information about propagation of user context data, see Adding user device and session data to API requests .

AuthSessionValidity -> (integer)

Amazon Cognito creates a session token for each API request in an authentication flow. AuthSessionValidity is the duration, in minutes, of that session token. Your user pool native user must respond to each authentication challenge before the session expires.
