AWS Cognito Authentication with Escape

Description

The 'Cognito User Password' preset is designed for authentication using AWS Cognito with username and password credentials:

  • AWS Cognito Integration: Leverages AWS Cognito, a comprehensive user identity and data synchronization service, for authentication.
  • Regional Configuration: Allows specifying the AWS region where the Cognito service is hosted, ensuring proper routing and compliance with data residency requirements.
  • Client Credentials: Utilizes a client ID and client secret for secure OAuth requests within the Cognito framework.
  • User Authentication: Facilitates the creation and authentication of users with a username and password.

This preset is ideal for systems that use AWS Cognito for managing user authentication, providing a seamless integration with the AWS ecosystem.
