Cognito

Recently, I worked on a project that required users to be able to sign in with their Google account and users to be able to link their Google account with their Cognito account. I found that there is not much information on the internet about how to do this. So I decided to write this article to share my experience. I will show you how to link a Cognito account with a Google account in the front end and back end.

Assume that you have a Cognito user pool and you want to create an API that allows user to access to API without any authentication. This article will show you how to do that.
