Amazon Cognito user pool LOGOUT endpoint is not working as expected

Question

In Amazon Cognito Developer Guide - LOGOUT endpoint https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cognito/latest/developerguide/logout-endpoint.html

It says the only required request parameter for logout endpoint is `client_id`

But when I call the logout endpoint with my client_id it is throwing an error `Required String parameter 'redirect_uri' is not present` (screenshot https://drive.google.com/file/d/1i14NI6s-ygzvyNWYprURn6wqZD8IMO6I/view?usp=sharing)

This is the URL I used for logout `https://.auth.us-east-1.amazoncognito.com/logout?client_id=` (I just redirected my web application to this URL for logout)

Accepted Answer

When logging out of Cognito, I have had success using the following format:

https:///logout?client_id=&logout_uri=

In your Cognito User Pool, under the App Client settings, you will need to add the URL for your logged-out page in the "Sign out URLs" text box.

You can have your loggedout.html page redirect users to a different page if needed.

Answer

Don't forget to urlencode "logout_uri" in a GET call if your framework isn't doing it for you (for example when testing from a browser manually).

For sending to https://locahost/ for example I did the following:

```
https://blrefactor.auth.us-east-1.amazoncognito.com/logout?logout_uri=https%3A%2F%2Flocalhost&client_id=xxxx
```

Also, adding to the current answer for clarity.
The docs say EITHER:
 **logout_uri** OR **redirect_uri** are required. [doc link](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cognito/latest/developerguide/logout-endpoint.html)

Logout_uri is used when sending back to a static logout page.
redirect_uri is used to redirect to a page that can request login and maintain state. In that case things like "response_type" are also required.
