GetCSVHeader

Given a user pool ID, generates a comma-separated value (CSV) list populated with available user attributes in the user pool. This list is the header for the CSV file that determines the users in a user import job. Save the content of CSVHeader in the response as a .csv file and populate it with the usernames and attributes of users that you want to import. For more information about CSV user import, see Importing users from a CSV file.
