I think more context is needed here, But as far as I understand. You have identity to login using your credentials but You are not authorized to change password or might not be able to do Write operations. Please check if you have write permission.

    Yes i can login using my credentials but cannot change the password by using the changePassword() method provided in the AWS Cognito Docs. Concerning the write permission i think i have the right to write, where can i check, because in the user attributes password is not listed.
