@@securityinaction1018 we want to expose existing API and manage in a API management platform. Unfortunately AWS API GW is suggested 😅.

Ok. If you want to use a AzureAD M2M client_credentials token for securing APIs hosted in AWS API GW, you can either use custom authorizer or JWT authorizer. JWT authorizer supports only HTTP APIs docs.aws.amazon.com/apigateway/latest/developerguide/http-api-jwt-authorizer.html

1. You can link the user profiles. Refer docs.aws.amazon.com/cognito/latest/developerguide/cognito-user-pools-identity-federation-consolidate-users.html 2. Did you change the grant type to authorization code in Cognito app client? That should not affect AD login. Please try to login using a incognito window instead of using existing session. 3. Hosted UI is mandatory for external identity provider login

How can I prevent duplicate account creation during signing and signup. An issue I identified arises when a user registers with their email and later signs in using social identity providers like Azure AD or Facebook.
When you say duplicate accounts, I assume you are referring to two accounts with same email address but different user names. Am I correct? In this case, you need to write a custom lambda function to link the federated user from AzureAD or Facebook with the local user profile which has the same email address.

Hi, I want to make sure that all users in my Cognito user pool have been authenticated by Azure AD. So, no one should be able to sign up unless they they do it through Azure AD. Are there any additional considerations I should have in order to achieve this? I'd greatly appreciate any information on this! Thank you.
There are couple of things that you can do. 1. Disable self-registration in the user pool so that no one can register a profile 2. In the App client configuration, enable only AzureAD as the Identity provider. This will make sure that only AAD users can access this client.

In general, you cannot trust a email address coming from any IdP because anyone can create random email addresses. The only exception is when Google is the IdP because Google already does multiple verifications. Also, if it is a trusted customer like top banks, insurance or other organizations who manages the IdP, it is fine.
@@securityinaction1018 if I already logged in with my identity provider in my client app, just want to access AWS service (chat) via OIDC. Without popping up UI to enter the client credentials, directly can access chat sliently via OIDC?
If both the client apps i.e. the app that you are logging in first and the chat app uses the same OIDC provider, it should perform a single sign-on i.e. user don't have to enter the credentials again. Can you confirm if both these apps are integrated with same IdP? Also, are you using Cognito or AzureAD for both the client app and chat app.
I'm trying to authenticate my mobile app user to Amazon connect chat. How do I basically authenticate? Via oidc or SSO. I thought SSO would work only for web apps. Right now I am not using any AWS service and IDP is 10x. I appreciate your inputs
Even a mobile app can open an inline browser to initiate the OIDC flow. I have not tried that myself. But, you should be able to find some samples in google.
This error means family_name and email is not set for this user profile. This can be due to AzureAD not properly configured to send these claims back to Cognito. You need to verify the AzureAD settings. Please like, subscribe & share!! Thanks in advance.
@@securityinaction1018 indeed, the account I was trying to login, did not had email addreess, neither first and last name, but how come? when I create a new user in AzureAD, I would expect to automatically generate these for me, but it doesn't. I need to manually fill in those fields, as you did What if the admin does not want to add those fields? maybe AD provides some custom attribute mapping wich evaluates to those fields?
It is entirely up to the Admin to decide whether to collect those details from the user. I don't know how AzureAD handles required fields. I guess there should be some way to make these fields mandatory or optional. In Cognito, you can set these fields as mandatory or optional
