Inputs

NameDescriptionTypeDefaultRequired
additional_tag_mapAdditional key-value pairs to add to each map in tags_as_list_of_maps. Not added to tags or id.
This is for some rare cases where resources want additional configuration of tags
and therefore take a list of maps with tag key, value, and additional configuration.
map(string){}no
admin_create_user_configThe configuration for AdminCreateUser requestsmap(any){}no
admin_create_user_config_allow_admin_create_user_onlySet to true if only the administrator is allowed to create user profiles. Set to false if users can sign themselves up via an appbooltrueno
admin_create_user_config_email_messageThe message template for email messages. Must contain {username} and {####} placeholders, for username and temporary password, respectivelystring"{username}, your temporary password is {####}"no
admin_create_user_config_email_subjectThe subject line for email messagesstring"Your verification code"no
admin_create_user_config_sms_messageThe message template for SMS messages. Must contain {username} and {####} placeholders, for username and temporary password, respectivelystring"Your username is {username} and temporary password is {####}"no
alias_attributesAttributes supported as an alias for this user pool. Possible values: phone_number, email, or preferred_username. Conflicts with username_attributeslist(string)nullno
attributesID element. Additional attributes (e.g. workers or cluster) to add to id,
in the order they appear in the list. New attributes are appended to the
end of the list. The elements of the list are joined by the delimiter
and treated as a single ID element.
list(string)[]no
auto_verified_attributesThe attributes to be auto-verified. Possible values: email, phone_numberlist(string)[]no
client_access_token_validityTime limit, between 5 minutes and 1 day, after which the access token is no longer valid and cannot be used. This value will be overridden if you have entered a value in token_validity_units.number60no

client_nameThe name of the application clientstringnullno
client_prevent_user_existence_errorsChoose which errors and responses are returned by Cognito APIs during authentication, account confirmation, and password recovery when the user does not exist in the user pool. When set to ENABLED and the user does not exist, authentication returns an error indicating either the username or password was incorrect, and account confirmation and password recovery return a response indicating a code was sent to a simulated destination. When set to LEGACY, those APIs will return a UserNotFoundException exception if the user does not exist in the user pool.stringnullno
client_read_attributesList of user pool attributes the application client can read fromlist(string)[]no
client_refresh_token_validityThe time limit in days refresh tokens are valid for. Must be between 60 minutes and 3650 days. This value will be overridden if you have entered a value in token_validity_unitsnumber30no

contextSingle object for setting entire context at once.
See description of individual variables for details.
Leave string and numeric variables as null to use default value.
Individual variable settings (non-null) override settings in context object,
except for attributes, tags, and additional_tag_map, which are merged.

deletion_protection(Optional) When active, DeletionProtection prevents accidental deletion of your user pool. Before you can delete a user pool that you have protected against deletion, you must deactivate this feature. Valid values are ACTIVE and INACTIVE, Default value is INACTIVE.string"INACTIVE"no
delimiterDelimiter to be used between ID elements.
Defaults to - (hyphen). Set to "" to use no delimiter at all.
stringnullno
descriptor_formatsDescribe additional descriptors to be output in the descriptors output map.
Map of maps. Keys are names of descriptors. Values are maps of the form
{<br/> format = string<br/> labels = list(string)<br/>}
(Type is any so the map values can later be enhanced to provide additional options.)
format is a Terraform format string to be passed to the format() function.
labels is a list of labels, in order, to pass to format() function.
Label values will be normalized before being passed to format() so they will be
identical to how they appear in id.
Default is {} (descriptors output will be empty).

label_key_caseControls the letter case of the tags keys (label names) for tags generated by this module.
Does not affect keys of tags passed in via the tags input.
Possible values: lower, title, upper.
Default value: title.
stringnullno
label_orderThe order in which the labels (ID elements) appear in the id.
Defaults to ["namespace", "environment", "stage", "name", "attributes"].
You can omit any of the 6 labels ("tenant" is the 6th), but at least one must be present.
list(string)nullno
label_value_caseControls the letter case of ID elements (labels) as included in id,
set as tag values, and output by this module individually.
Does not affect values of tags passed in via the tags input.
Possible values: lower, title, upper and none (no transformation).
Set this to title and set delimiter to "" to yield Pascal Case IDs.
Default value: lower.
stringnullno
labels_as_tagsSet of labels (ID elements) to include as tags in the tags output.
Default is to include all labels.
Tags with empty values will not be included in the tags output.
Set to [] to suppress all generated tags.
Notes:
The value of the name tag, if included, will be the id, not the name.
Unlike other null-label inputs, the initial setting of labels_as_tags cannot be
changed in later chained modules. Attempts to change it will be silently ignored.
