Code examples for Amazon Cognito Identity Provider using AWS SDKs
The following code examples show you how to use Amazon Cognito Identity Provider with an AWS software development kit (SDK).
Actions are code excerpts from larger programs and must be run in context. While actions show you how to call individual service functions, you can see actions in context in their related scenarios.
Scenarios are code examples that show you how to accomplish specific tasks by calling multiple functions within a service or combined with other AWS services.
