aws-cognito-idp: Create a new Cognito user pool.
$ aws cognito-idp create-user-pool --pool-name ${name}
try on your machine
The command "aws cognito-idp create-user-pool --pool-name ${name}" is used to create a user pool in Amazon Cognito, a service provided by Amazon Web Services (AWS) for user authentication and authorization. The command takes in a pool name as a parameter, which is specified using the ${name} variable.
Here's a breakdown of the command:
- "aws cognito-idp" is the AWS CLI command for interacting with the Amazon Cognito Identity Provider service.
- "create-user-pool" is the specific command to create a user pool in Cognito.
- "--pool-name" is an option used to specify the name of the user pool. It is followed by "${name}", which is a placeholder for the actual pool name. You might replace "${name}" with the desired name of the user pool.
By running this command, you can create a user pool with the provided name in Amazon Cognito, allowing you to manage and authenticate users in your application.
