Can we add AWS IAM users to AWS Cognito Pool

0 votes
I have a user pool which is authenticated via AWS SDK using the federated identities. But the users were created manually in the Cognito UI.But the requirement is to authenticate the user if they already resides in AWS as an IAM user. Since AWS cognito does not provide a workflow to import the IAM users to Cognito pool, do we have another way to accomplish it?

For now, that seems unlikely. Because if AWS Cognito Federated Identities allows, federating an external identity provider to grant AWS access, then the other way around is not possible.

Plus we don’t have methods in AWS IAM SDK to verify AWS Username and Password, which also limits verifying them through your own implementation.
