Does AWS Cognito support issuing opaque access tokens instead of JWT formatted access tokens?

0

I have read most of the documentation and couldn't find any trusted resources to confirm if the access tokens issued by Cognito can be opaque.

I believe at this time Cognito only supports JWTs and does not support opaque tokens. One possibility to explore would be customizing the access token to add an opaque value to a customer defined claim, but I have not attempted this.

Hope this helps!
