```
{
  "Type" : "AWS::Cognito::UserPoolIdentityProvider",
  "Properties" : {
      "[AttributeMapping](#cfn-cognito-userpoolidentityprovider-attributemapping)" : {Key: Value, ...},
      "[IdpIdentifiers](#cfn-cognito-userpoolidentityprovider-idpidentifiers)" : [ String, ... ],

```

## Properties
<a name="aws-resource-cognito-userpoolidentityprovider-properties"></a>

`AttributeMapping`  <a name="cfn-cognito-userpoolidentityprovider-attributemapping"></a>
A mapping of IdP attributes to standard and custom user pool attributes. Specify a user pool attribute as the key of the key-value pair, and the IdP attribute claim name as the value.  
*Required*: No  
*Type*: Object of String  
*Pattern*: `^([\p{L}\p{Z}\p{N}_.:/=+\-@]*)$`  
*Update requires*: [No interruption](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/using-cfn-updating-stacks-update-behaviors.html#update-no-interrupt)

`IdpIdentifiers`  <a name="cfn-cognito-userpoolidentityprovider-idpidentifiers"></a>
An array of IdP identifiers, for example `"IdPIdentifiers": [ "MyIdP", "MyIdP2" ]`. Identifiers are friendly names that you can pass in the `idp_identifier` query parameter of requests to the [Authorize endpoint](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cognito/latest/developerguide/authorization-endpoint.html) to silently redirect to sign-in with the associated IdP. Identifiers in a domain format also enable the use of [email-address matching with SAML providers](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cognito/latest/developerguide/cognito-user-pools-managing-saml-idp-naming.html).   
*Required*: No  
*Type*: Array of String  
*Minimum*: `0`  
*Maximum*: `50`  
*Update requires*: [No interruption](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/UserGuide/using-cfn-updating-stacks-update-behaviors.html#update-no-interrupt)

`ProviderDetails`  <a name="cfn-cognito-userpoolidentityprovider-providerdetails"></a>
The scopes, URLs, and identifiers for your external identity provider. The following examples describe the provider detail keys for each IdP type. These values and their schema are subject to change. Social IdP `authorize_scopes` values must match the values listed here.    
OpenID Connect (OIDC)  
Amazon Cognito accepts the following elements when it can't discover endpoint URLs from `oidc_issuer`: `attributes_url`, `authorize_url`, `jwks_uri`, `token_url`.

The value of `MetadataFile` must be the plaintext metadata document with all quote (") characters escaped by backslashes.  
Describe response: `"ProviderDetails": { "IDPInit": "true", "IDPSignout": "true", "EncryptedResponses" : "true", "ActiveEncryptionCertificate": "[certificate]", "MetadataURL": "https://auth.example.com/sso/saml/metadata", "RequestSigningAlgorithm": "rsa-sha256", "SLORedirectBindingURI": "https://auth.example.com/slo/saml", "SSORedirectBindingURI": "https://auth.example.com/sso/saml" }`

## Return values
<a name="aws-resource-cognito-userpoolidentityprovider-return-values"></a>

### Ref
<a name="aws-resource-cognito-userpoolidentityprovider-return-values-ref"></a>

When you pass the logical ID of this resource to the intrinsic `Ref` function, `Ref` returns physicalResourceId, which is “ProviderName". For example:

 `{ "Ref": "testProvider" }` 

For the Amazon Cognito identity provider `testProvider`, Ref returns the name of the identity provider.

For more information about using the `Ref` function, see [https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/intrinsic-function-reference-ref.html](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSCloudFormation/latest/TemplateReference/intrinsic-function-reference-ref.html).
