Container for the parameters to the CreateUserPoolClient operation. Creates an app client in a user pool. This operation sets basic and advanced configuration options.
Unlike app clients created in the console, Amazon Cognito doesn't automatically assign a branding style to app clients that you configure with this API operation. Managed login and classic hosted UI pages aren't available for your client until after you apply a branding style.
If you don't provide a value for an attribute, Amazon Cognito sets it to its default value.
Amazon Cognito evaluates Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies in requests for this API operation. For this operation, you must use IAM credentials to authorize requests, and you must grant yourself the corresponding IAM permission in a policy.

AnalyticsConfiguration | Amazon.CognitoIdentityProvider.Model.AnalyticsConfigurationType |
Gets and sets the property AnalyticsConfiguration. The user pool analytics configuration for collecting metrics and sending them to your Amazon Pinpoint campaign.

Gets and sets the property CallbackURLs. A list of allowed redirect, or callback, URLs for managed login authentication. These URLs are the paths where you want to send your users' browsers after they complete authentication with managed login or a third-party IdP. Typically, callback URLs are the home of an application that uses OAuth or OIDC libraries to process authentication outcomes. A redirect URI must meet the following requirements:
See OAuth 2.0 - Redirection Endpoint. Amazon Cognito requires HTTPS over HTTP except for http://localhost for testing purposes only. App callback URLs such as myapp://example are also supported. |

ExplicitAuthFlows | System.Collections.Generic.List<System.String> |
Gets and sets the property ExplicitAuthFlows. The authentication flows that you want your user pool client to support. For each app client in your user pool, you can sign in your users with any combination of one or more flows, including with a user name and Secure Remote Password (SRP), a user name and password, or a custom authentication process that you define with Lambda functions.

RefreshTokenRotation | Amazon.CognitoIdentityProvider.Model.RefreshTokenRotationType |

When you don't specify the If your app client allows users to sign in through an IdP, this array must include all attributes that you have mapped to IdP attributes. Amazon Cognito updates mapped attributes when users sign in to your application through an IdP. If your app client does not have write access to a mapped attribute, Amazon Cognito throws an error when it tries to update the attribute. For more information, see Specifying IdP Attribute Mappings for Your user pool. |
The following example creates an app client with all configurable properties set to an example value. The resulting user pool client connects to an analytics client, allows sign-in with username and password, and has two external identity providers associated with it.
