Paws::CognitoIdentity - Perl Interface to AWS Amazon Cognito Identity

  use Paws;

  my $obj = Paws->service('CognitoIdentity')->new;
  my $res = $obj->Method(
    Arg1 => $val1,
    Arg2 => [ 'V1', 'V2' ],
    # if Arg3 is an object, the HashRef will be used as arguments to the constructor
    # of the arguments type
    Arg3 => { Att1 => 'Val1' },
    # if Arg4 is an array of objects, the HashRefs will be passed as arguments to
    # the constructor of the arguments type

Amazon Cognito

Amazon Cognito is a web service that delivers scoped temporary credentials to mobile devices and other untrusted environments. Amazon Cognito uniquely identifies a device and supplies the user with a consistent identity over the lifetime of an application.

Using Amazon Cognito, you can enable authentication with one or more third-party identity providers (Facebook, Google, or Login with Amazon), and you can also choose to support unauthenticated access from your app. Cognito delivers a unique identifier for each user and acts as an OpenID token provider trusted by AWS Security Token Service (STS) to access temporary, limited-privilege AWS credentials.

To provide end-user credentials, first make an unsigned call to GetId. If the end user is authenticated with one of the supported identity providers, set the "Logins" map with the identity provider token. "GetId" returns a unique identifier for the user.

Next, make an unsigned call to GetCredentialsForIdentity. This call expects the same "Logins" map as the "GetId" call, as well as the "IdentityID" originally returned by "GetId". Assuming your identity pool has been configured via the SetIdentityPoolRoles operation, "GetCredentialsForIdentity" will return AWS credentials for your use. If your pool has not been configured with "SetIdentityPoolRoles", or if you want to follow legacy flow, make an unsigned call to GetOpenIdToken, which returns the OpenID token necessary to call STS and retrieve AWS credentials. This call expects the same "Logins" map as the "GetId" call, as well as the "IdentityID" originally returned by "GetId". The token returned by "GetOpenIdToken" can be passed to the STS operation AssumeRoleWithWebIdentity to retrieve AWS credentials.

If you want to use Amazon Cognito in an Android, iOS, or Unity application, you will probably want to make API calls via the AWS Mobile SDK. To learn more, see the AWS Mobile SDK Developer Guide.

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::CognitoIdentity::CreateIdentityPool

Returns: a Paws::CognitoIdentity::IdentityPool instance

Creates a new identity pool. The identity pool is a store of user identity information that is specific to your AWS account. The limit on identity pools is 60 per account. You must use AWS Developer credentials to call this API.

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::CognitoIdentity::DeleteIdentities

Returns: a Paws::CognitoIdentity::DeleteIdentitiesResponse instance

Deletes identities from an identity pool. You can specify a list of 1-60 identities that you want to delete.

You must use AWS Developer credentials to call this API.

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::CognitoIdentity::DeleteIdentityPool

Returns: nothing

Deletes a user pool. Once a pool is deleted, users will not be able to authenticate with the pool.

You must use AWS Developer credentials to call this API.

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::CognitoIdentity::DescribeIdentity

Returns: a Paws::CognitoIdentity::IdentityDescription instance

Returns metadata related to the given identity, including when the identity was created and any associated linked logins.

You must use AWS Developer credentials to call this API.

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::CognitoIdentity::DescribeIdentityPool

Returns: a Paws::CognitoIdentity::IdentityPool instance

Gets details about a particular identity pool, including the pool name, ID description, creation date, and current number of users.

You must use AWS Developer credentials to call this API.

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::CognitoIdentity::GetCredentialsForIdentity

Returns: a Paws::CognitoIdentity::GetCredentialsForIdentityResponse instance

Returns credentials for the the provided identity ID. Any provided logins will be validated against supported login providers. If the token is for cognito-identity.amazonaws.com, it will be passed through to AWS Security Token Service with the appropriate role for the token.

This is a public API. You do not need any credentials to call this API.

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::CognitoIdentity::GetId

Returns: a Paws::CognitoIdentity::GetIdResponse instance

Generates (or retrieves) a Cognito ID. Supplying multiple logins will create an implicit linked account.

token+";"+tokenSecret.

This is a public API. You do not need any credentials to call this API.

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::CognitoIdentity::GetIdentityPoolRoles

Returns: a Paws::CognitoIdentity::GetIdentityPoolRolesResponse instance

Gets the roles for an identity pool.

You must use AWS Developer credentials to call this API.

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::CognitoIdentity::GetOpenIdToken

Returns: a Paws::CognitoIdentity::GetOpenIdTokenResponse instance

Gets an OpenID token, using a known Cognito ID. This known Cognito ID is returned by GetId. You can optionally add additional logins for the identity. Supplying multiple logins creates an implicit link.

The OpenId token is valid for 15 minutes.

This is a public API. You do not need any credentials to call this API.

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::CognitoIdentity::GetOpenIdTokenForDeveloperIdentity

Returns: a Paws::CognitoIdentity::GetOpenIdTokenForDeveloperIdentityResponse instance

Registers (or retrieves) a Cognito "IdentityId" and an OpenID Connect token for a user authenticated by your backend authentication process. Supplying multiple logins will create an implicit linked account. You can only specify one developer provider as part of the "Logins" map, which is linked to the identity pool. The developer provider is the "domain" by which Cognito will refer to your users.

You can use "GetOpenIdTokenForDeveloperIdentity" to create a new identity and to link new logins (that is, user credentials issued by a public provider or developer provider) to an existing identity. When you want to create a new identity, the "IdentityId" should be null. When you want to associate a new login with an existing authenticated/unauthenticated identity, you can do so by providing the existing "IdentityId". This API will create the identity in the specified "IdentityPoolId".

You must use AWS Developer credentials to call this API.

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::CognitoIdentity::ListIdentities

Returns: a Paws::CognitoIdentity::ListIdentitiesResponse instance

Lists the identities in a pool.

You must use AWS Developer credentials to call this API.

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::CognitoIdentity::ListIdentityPools

Returns: a Paws::CognitoIdentity::ListIdentityPoolsResponse instance

Lists all of the Cognito identity pools registered for your account.

This is a public API. You do not need any credentials to call this API.

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::CognitoIdentity::LookupDeveloperIdentity

Returns: a Paws::CognitoIdentity::LookupDeveloperIdentityResponse instance

Retrieves the "IdentityID" associated with a "DeveloperUserIdentifier" or the list of "DeveloperUserIdentifier"s associated with an "IdentityId" for an existing identity. Either "IdentityID" or "DeveloperUserIdentifier" must not be null. If you supply only one of these values, the other value will be searched in the database and returned as a part of the response. If you supply both, "DeveloperUserIdentifier" will be matched against "IdentityID". If the values are verified against the database, the response returns both values and is the same as the request. Otherwise a "ResourceConflictException" is thrown.

You must use AWS Developer credentials to call this API.

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::CognitoIdentity::MergeDeveloperIdentities

Returns: a Paws::CognitoIdentity::MergeDeveloperIdentitiesResponse instance

Merges two users having different "IdentityId"s, existing in the same identity pool, and identified by the same developer provider. You can use this action to request that discrete users be merged and identified as a single user in the Cognito environment. Cognito associates the given source user ("SourceUserIdentifier") with the "IdentityId" of the "DestinationUserIdentifier". Only developer-authenticated users can be merged. If the users to be merged are associated with the same public provider, but as two different users, an exception will be thrown.

You must use AWS Developer credentials to call this API.

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::CognitoIdentity::SetIdentityPoolRoles

Returns: nothing

Sets the roles for an identity pool. These roles are used when making calls to "GetCredentialsForIdentity" action.

You must use AWS Developer credentials to call this API.

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::CognitoIdentity::UnlinkDeveloperIdentity

Returns: nothing

Unlinks a "DeveloperUserIdentifier" from an existing identity. Unlinked developer users will be considered new identities next time they are seen. If, for a given Cognito identity, you remove all federated identities as well as the developer user identifier, the Cognito identity becomes inaccessible.

This is a public API. You do not need any credentials to call this API.

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::CognitoIdentity::UnlinkIdentity

Returns: nothing

Unlinks a federated identity from an existing account. Unlinked logins will be considered new identities next time they are seen. Removing the last linked login will make this identity inaccessible.

This is a public API. You do not need any credentials to call this API.

Each argument is described in detail in: Paws::CognitoIdentity::UpdateIdentityPool

Returns: a Paws::CognitoIdentity::IdentityPool instance

Updates a user pool.

You must use AWS Developer credentials to call this API.
