Optional: This environment variable is a dictionary that represent the well known JWKs assigned to your user pool by AWS Cognito. You can find the keys for your user pool by substituting in your AWS region and pool id for the following example.
https://cognito-idp.{aws-region}.amazonaws.com/{user-pool-id}/.well-known/jwks.json
Example Value (Not Real):
COGNITO_JWKS={"keys": [{"alg": "RS256","e": "AQAB","kid": "123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP","kty": "RSA","n": "123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP","use": "sig"},{"alg": "RS256","e": "AQAB","kid": "123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP","kty": "RSA","n": "123456789ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOP","use": "sig"}]}

refresh_token='optional-refresh-token',
access_token='optional-access-token',
access_key='optional-access-key',
secret_key='optional-secret-key')- user_pool_id: Cognito User Pool ID
- client_id: Cognito User Pool Application client ID
- client_secret: App client secret (if app client is configured with client secret)
- username: User Pool username
- id_token: ID Token returned by authentication

Used when you only need information about the user pool (ex. list users in the user pool)
from warrant import Cognito
u = Cognito('your-user-pool-id','your-client-id')Used when the user has not logged in yet. Start with these arguments when you plan to authenticate with either SRP (authenticate) or admin_authenticate (admin_initiate_auth).
from warrant import Cognito
u = Cognito('your-user-pool-id','your-client-id',
username='bob')Used after the user has already authenticated and you need to build a new Cognito instance (ex. for use in a view).
from warrant import Cognito
u = Cognito('your-user-pool-id','your-client-id',
id_token='your-id-token',
refresh_token='your-refresh-token',
access_token='your-access-token')Register a user to the user pool
Important: The arguments for add_base_attributes and add_custom_attributes methods depend on your user pool's configuration, and make sure the client id (app id) used has write permissions for the attriubtes you are trying to create. Example, if you want to create a user with a given_name equal to Johnson make sure the client_id you're using has permissions to edit or create given_name for a user in the pool.
from warrant import Cognito
u = Cognito('your-user-pool-id', 'your-client-id')
u.add_base_attributes(email='[email protected]', some_random_attr='random value')
u.register('username', 'password')Register with custom attributes.
Firstly, add custom attributes on 'General settings -> Attributes' page. Secondly, set permissions on 'Generals settings-> App clients-> Show details-> Set attribute read and write permissions' page.
from warrant import Cognito
u = Cognito('your-user-pool-id', 'your-client-id')
u.add_base_attributes(email='[email protected]', some_random_attr='random value')
u.add_custom_attributes(state='virginia', city='Centreville')
u.register('username', 'password')- username: User Pool username
- password: User Pool password
- attr_map: Attribute map to Cognito's attributes

The AWSSRP class is used to perform SRP(Secure Remote Password protocol) authentication.
This is the preferred method of user authentication with AWS Cognito.
The process involves a series of authentication challenges and responses, which if successful,
results in a final response that contains ID, access and refresh tokens.
The AWSSRP class takes a username, password, cognito user pool id, cognito app id, an optional
client secret (if app client is configured with client secret), an optional pool_region or boto3 client.
Afterwards, the authenticate_user class method is used for SRP authentication.
