createIdentitySource

Adds an identity source to a policy store–an Amazon Cognito user pool or OpenID Connect (OIDC) identity provider (IdP).

After you create an identity source, you can use the identities provided by the IdP as proxies for the principal in authorization queries that use the IsAuthorizedWithToken or BatchIsAuthorizedWithToken API operations. These identities take the form of tokens that contain claims about the user, such as IDs, attributes and group memberships. Identity sources provide identity (ID) tokens and access tokens. Verified Permissions derives information about your user and session from token claims. Access tokens provide action context to your policies, and ID tokens provide principal Attributes.

Tokens from an identity source user continue to be usable until they expire. Token revocation and resource deletion have no effect on the validity of a token in your policy store

To reference a user from this identity source in your Cedar policies, refer to the following syntax examples.

• Amazon Cognito user pool: Namespace::[Entity type]::[User pool ID]|[user principal attribute], for example MyCorp::User::us-east-1_EXAMPLE|a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE11111.

• OpenID Connect (OIDC) provider: Namespace::[Entity type]::[entityIdPrefix]|[user principal attribute], for example MyCorp::User::MyOIDCProvider|a1b2c3d4-5678-90ab-cdef-EXAMPLE22222. Verified Permissions is eventually consistent. It can take a few seconds for a new or changed element to propagate through the service and be visible in the results of other Verified Permissions operations.
