Amazon Cognito Session Management

Amazon Cognito now supports session management for user pools, providing visibility and control over user sessions. This feature allows you to manage single sign-on (SSO) and token sessions, list active sessions, and revoke sessions on demand. You can also configure SSO session durations and set a maximum number of active token sessions per user.

Session details include session type, app client ID, device type, last activity time and location, and initial sign-in time. You can manage sessions via the AWS Management Console, API, AWS CLI, SDKs, and AWS CloudFormation.

What to do

  • Configure session durations for your app clients.
  • Set a maximum number of active token sessions per user.
  • Manage sessions using the AWS Management Console, API, AWS CLI, SDKs, or AWS CloudFormation.
