Admin Confirm Sign Up

cognitoidentityprovider_admin_confirm_sign_up

R Documentation

Confirms user sign-up as an administrator

Description

Confirms user sign-up as an administrator. Unlike confirm_sign_up, your IAM credentials authorize user account confirmation. No confirmation code is required.

This request sets a user account active in a user pool that requires confirmation of new user accounts before they can sign in. You can configure your user pool to not send confirmation codes to new users and instead confirm them with this API operation on the back end.

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.

To configure your user pool to require administrative confirmation of users, set AllowAdminCreateUserOnly to true in a create_user_pool or update_user_pool request.

Usage

cognitoidentityprovider_admin_confirm_sign_up(UserPoolId, Username,
  ClientMetadata)

Arguments

UserPoolId	[required] The ID of the user pool where you want to confirm a user's sign-up request.
Username	[required] The username of the user that you want to query or modify. The value of this parameter is typically your user's username, but it can be any of their alias attributes. If username isn't an alias attribute in your user pool, this value must be the sub of a local user or the username of a user from a third-party IdP.
ClientMetadata	A map of custom key-value pairs that you can provide as input for any custom workflows that this action triggers. If your user pool configuration includes triggers, the AdminConfirmSignUp API action invokes the Lambda function that is specified for the post confirmation trigger. When Amazon Cognito invokes this function, it passes a JSON payload, which the function receives as input. In this payload, the clientMetadata attribute provides the data that you assigned to the ClientMetadata parameter in your AdminConfirmSignUp request. In your function code in Lambda, you can process the ClientMetadata value to enhance your workflow for your specific needs. For more information, see Customizing user pool Workflows with Lambda Triggers in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide. When you use the ClientMetadata parameter, note that Amazon Cognito won't do the following: Store the ClientMetadata value. This data is available only to Lambda triggers that are assigned to a user pool to support custom workflows. If your user pool configuration doesn't include triggers, the ClientMetadata parameter serves no purpose. Validate the ClientMetadata value. Encrypt the ClientMetadata value. Don't send sensitive information in this parameter.

Value

An empty list.
