SourceArn (string) --

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of a verified email address in Amazon SES. This email address is used in one of the following ways, depending on the value that you specify for the EmailSendingAccount parameter:
- If you specify COGNITO_DEFAULT , Amazon Cognito uses this address as the custom FROM address when it emails your users by 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.
ReplyToEmailAddress (string) --

The destination to which the receiver of the email should reply to.
EmailSendingAccount (string) --

Specifies whether Amazon Cognito emails your users by using its built-in email functionality or your Amazon SES email configuration. Specify one of the following values:

COGNITO_DEFAULT

When 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 below 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 Amazon Cognito in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .

The default FROM address is no-reply@verificationemail.com. To customize the FROM address, provide the ARN of an Amazon SES verified email address for the SourceArn parameter.

DEVELOPER

When 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 AWS account.

If you use this option, you must 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 IAM role, in your AWS account. This role contains the permissions that allow Amazon Cognito to access Amazon SES and send email messages with your 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 .

type SmsConfiguration

dict

param SmsConfiguration

The SMS configuration.

SnsCallerArn (string) -- [REQUIRED]

The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of the Amazon Simple Notification Service (SNS) caller.
ExternalId (string) --

The external ID.

type UserPoolTags

dict

param UserPoolTags

The tag keys and values to assign to the user pool. A tag is a label that you can use to categorize and manage user pools in different ways, such as by purpose, owner, environment, or other criteria.

(string) --
- (string) --

type AdminCreateUserConfig

dict

param AdminCreateUserConfig

The configuration for AdminCreateUser requests.

AllowAdminCreateUserOnly (boolean) --

Set to True if only the administrator is allowed to create user profiles. Set to False if users can sign themselves up via an app.
UnusedAccountValidityDays (integer) --

The user account expiration limit, in days, after which the account is no longer usable. To reset the account after that time limit, you must call AdminCreateUser again, specifying "RESEND" for the MessageAction parameter. The default value for this parameter is 7.

Note

If you set a value for TemporaryPasswordValidityDays in PasswordPolicy , that value will be used and UnusedAccountValidityDays will be deprecated for that user pool.
InviteMessageTemplate (dict) --

The message template to be used for the welcome message to new users.

See also Customizing User Invitation Messages .
- SMSMessage (string) --
  
  The message template for SMS messages.
- EmailMessage (string) --
  
  The message template for email messages.
- EmailSubject (string) --
  
  The subject line for email messages.

type Schema

list

param Schema

(dict) --

Contains information about the schema attribute.
- Name (string) --
  
  A schema attribute of the name type.
- AttributeDataType (string) --
  
  The attribute data type.
- DeveloperOnlyAttribute (boolean) --
  
  Specifies whether the attribute type is developer only.
- Mutable (boolean) --
  
  Specifies whether the value of the attribute can be changed.
  
  For any user pool attribute that's mapped to an identity provider attribute, you must set this parameter to true . Amazon Cognito updates mapped attributes when users sign in to your application through an identity provider. 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) --
  
  Specifies whether a user pool attribute is required. If the attribute is required and the user does not provide a value, registration or sign-in will fail.

    - ChallengeRequiredOnNewDevice (boolean) --
      
      Indicates whether a challenge is required on a new device. Only applicable to a new device.
    - DeviceOnlyRememberedOnUserPrompt (boolean) --
      
      If true, a device is only remembered on user prompt.
  - EstimatedNumberOfUsers (integer) --
    
    A number estimating the size of the user pool.
  - EmailConfiguration (dict) --
    
    The email configuration.
    - SourceArn (string) --
      
      The Amazon Resource Name (ARN) of a verified email address in Amazon SES. This email address is used in one of the following ways, depending on the value that you specify for the EmailSendingAccount parameter:
      - If you specify COGNITO_DEFAULT , Amazon Cognito uses this address as the custom FROM address when it emails your users by 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.
    - ReplyToEmailAddress (string) --
      
      The destination to which the receiver of the email should reply to.
    - EmailSendingAccount (string) --
      
      Specifies whether Amazon Cognito emails your users by using its built-in email functionality or your Amazon SES email configuration. Specify one of the following values:
      
      COGNITO_DEFAULT
      
      When 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 below 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 Amazon Cognito in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide .
      
      The default FROM address is no-reply@verificationemail.com. To customize the FROM address, provide the ARN of an Amazon SES verified email address for the SourceArn parameter.
      
      DEVELOPER
      
      When 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 AWS account.
      
      If you use this option, you must 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 IAM role, in your AWS account. This role contains the permissions that allow Amazon Cognito to access Amazon SES and send email messages with your 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 .
