            It happened to me too. There are two ways I found, you have to create an IAM user for both of them.

            • Open IAM console and give necessary policies to IAM user for reaching your elasticsearch domain (or I attached "AdministratorAccess" policy only (It gives all access of AWS)), then you should use credentials of this IAM account.
            • Or open kibana -> security -> roles -> click all_access role -> mapped_users -> manage_mapping. Then you should add arn of your IAM user to backend roles. You have to use this user's credentials not "boto3.Session().get_credentials()" on your code to connect ES. I suggest the second one if you are not familiar with IAM roles and policies.

            Asked 2020-Jun-10 at 19:47

            I created an API with AWS API Gateway. One of the endpoints writes a message into an SQS queue. The content is a JSON which is created by a mapping template. The API endpoint (POST) receives a payload in the body as JSON. I need the API params as well as the body in a Lambda function. I use SQS to ensure each transaction is handled eventually by a Lambda function. So, I designed the mapping template in API gateway as follows:

            Get identity provider oauth tokens in AWS cognito user pool
            Asked 2020-May-02 at 15:24

            Is there ANY possible way to get an identity providers oauth tokens when signing them up for a user pool? I need offline access to a google users access and refresh tokens. So far I've tried:

            1) Using the amazon-cognito-auth-js library

            I'm able to create a user but there is no way to get the oauth access and refresh tokens. It looks like attribute mapping should achieve this, but in the mapping select box there is no option for access/refresh tokens.

            2) Login with google javascript api and create user via cognitoidentityserviceprovider.adminCreateUser

            This flow would be:

            • Login via gapi and get the oauth authorization_code
            • Send authorization_code to an HTTP lambda function to exchange for access and refresh tokens.
            • Create a new userpool user with adminCreateUser
            • Add the refresh / access tokens to this user.

            Although, it appears as if there is no way to adminCreateUser with an identity provider. Only username / password.

            3) Login with gapi and make an ajax call to oauth2/idpresponse

            Similar to the last flow, I would:

            • Login via gapi and get the oauth authorization_code

            • Send authorization_code to an HTTP lambda function to exchange for access and refresh tokens.

            • Make a GET request to https:.auth.us-east-1.amazoncognito.com/oauth2/idpresponse?code= which appears to be the step in the amazon-cognito-auth-js library that signs up a new user.

            • Add the refresh / access tokens to this user.

            The GET request to oauth2/idpresponse always fails though. There are other required query parameters besides authorization_code which I don't know how to get (state?).

            Here's answer if someone would encounter same issue

            CAUTION - Doing it incorrectly, you expose sensitive attributes to client.

            You need to create 2 versions of attributes - custom and dev:custom, map oidc provider attributes to custom ones (looks like dev:custom aren't mappable), then in TokenGeneration_HostedAuth trigger you need to get these custom attributes, set dev:custom ones, then delete customs.

            Seems like a tweak, but I don't see another way of doing it and keeping tokens safe.

            Solution for that is to create custom attributes in your user pool, then map these attributes for identity provider. Looks something like:

            How to configure Serverless Cognito Lambda Tiggers
            Asked 2020-Apr-11 at 06:09

            Using the Serverless framework to create a Cognito User Pool as well as several lambdas to be used for cognito events during TOPT SMS Authorization. Everything is created however the lambda functions are not registered with Cognito.

            Relatively new to Serverless jut can't seem to get them to connect. Have tried pool names as others have tried to mark as already present at the end of creation the pool is there and the lambdas are there but there is no connection.

            Currently following another post tried changing user pool to CognitoUserPoolMyUserPool and then in lambda referencing it as MyUserPool. Have also tried just CognitoUserPool in both locations and neither work.

            I've copied pasted your code (and added relevant Lambda functions) and it works for me.

            I've tested the PreSignUp with the following command: aws cognito-idp admin-create-user --region --user-pool-id --username

            While not showing in the AWS Console Lambda UI, the triggers do show up in the Cognito->User Pools->dev-user-pool->Triggers, which is confusing.

            You must check "Lambda Proxy Integration" in your method integration on API gateway, to receive the stage information.

            To use a stage variable to customize the HTTP integration endpoint, you must first configure a stage variable of a specified name, e.g., url, and then assign it a value, e.g., example.com. Next, from your method configuration, set up an HTTP proxy integration, and instead of entering the endpoint's URL, you can tell API Gateway to use the stage variable value, http://${stageVariables.url}. This value tells API Gateway to substitute your stage variable ${} at runtime, depending on which stage your API is running. You can reference stage variables in a similar way to specify a Lambda function name, an AWS Service Proxy path, or an AWS role ARN in the credentials field.

            If your ES cluster is created in a VPC, then you need networking access to it. I would recommend creating a cluster with 'Public access' instead, which is still subject to your access policy.

            If you want a VPC cluster, and you want to access it (either ES directly, or Kibana) from outside that VPC, then you will need to VPN into the VPC, or do some routing that enables it to be exposed. The latter might be a bit tricky when the instances running your cluster aren't directly available to you, but you should be able to do it with some combination of Internet gateways, NAT gateways, security groups, routing tables, etc.
