Cognito Custom Auth session duration

0

Hi, I'm looking for a way to change the default Cognito custom auth session timeout.

As explained at the end of this tutorial here: https://aws.amazon.com/fr/blogs/mobile/implementing-passwordless-email-authentication-with-amazon-cognito/

default timeout is 3 minutes.

Is it possible to change to another value ?

Hi Sebastian,

To adjust this period, change your app client Authentication flow session duration.

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cognito/latest/developerguide/amazon-cognito-user-pools-authentication-flow.html.

Hope it helps/inspires you ;)

  • Hello, thanks for taking the time to help me ! I'm aware of token duration, but this token is not related to custom auth session timeout unfortunately. Thanks for the more recent, and comprehensive tutorial from Yan Cui, schemas are really helpful in this tutorial. Unfortunately the session timeout is not mentioned.

  • What about this? https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cognito/latest/developerguide/amazon-cognito-user-pools-authentication-flow.html.

    Check the part: To adjust this period, change your app client Authentication flow session duration.

    Updated answer above too.

  • Thank you so much @alatech, this is exactly the parameter i was looking for, and of course it was just in front of my eyes !
