Overview

Note:

When passing ForgotPasswordRequest as input to an Aws::Client method, you can use a vanilla Hash:

{
  client_id: "ClientIdType", # required
  secret_hash: "SecretHashType",
  user_context_data: {
    encoded_data: "StringType",
  },
  username: "UsernameType", # required
  analytics_metadata: {
    analytics_endpoint_id: "StringType",
  },
  client_metadata: {
    "StringType" => "StringType",
  },
}

Represents the request to reset a user's password.

Instance Attribute Details

#analytics_metadataTypes::AnalyticsMetadataType

The Amazon Pinpoint analytics metadata for collecting metrics for ForgotPassword calls.

Returns:

#client_idString

The ID of the client associated with the user pool.

Returns:

  • (String)

    The ID of the client associated with the user pool.

#client_metadataHash<String,String>

A map of custom key-value pairs that you can provide as input for any custom workflows that this action triggers.

You create custom workflows by assigning AWS Lambda functions to user pool triggers. When you use the ForgotPassword API action, Amazon Cognito invokes any functions that are assigned to the following triggers: pre sign-up, custom message, and user migration. When Amazon Cognito invokes any of these functions, it passes a JSON payload, which the function receives as input. This payload contains a clientMetadata attribute, which provides the data that you assigned to the ClientMetadata parameter in your ForgotPassword request. In your function code in AWS Lambda, you can process the clientMetadata value to enhance your workflow for your specific needs.

For more information, see Customizing User Pool Workflows with Lambda Triggers in the Amazon Cognito Developer Guide.

Take the following limitations into consideration when you use the ClientMetadata parameter:

  • Amazon Cognito does not store the ClientMetadata value. This data is available only to AWS Lambda triggers that are assigned to a user pool to support custom workflows. If your user pool configuration does not include triggers, the ClientMetadata parameter serves no purpose.

  • Amazon Cognito does not validate the ClientMetadata value.

  • Amazon Cognito does not encrypt the the ClientMetadata value, so don\'t use it to provide sensitive information.

Returns:

  • (Hash<String,String>)

    A map of custom key-value pairs that you can provide as input for any custom workflows that this action triggers.

#secret_hashString

A keyed-hash message authentication code (HMAC) calculated using the secret key of a user pool client and username plus the client ID in the message.

Returns:

  • (String)

    A keyed-hash message authentication code (HMAC) calculated using the secret key of a user pool client and username plus the client ID in the message.

#user_context_dataTypes::UserContextDataType

Contextual data such as the user\'s device fingerprint, IP address, or location used for evaluating the risk of an unexpected event by Amazon Cognito advanced security.

Returns:

  • (Types::UserContextDataType)

    Contextual data such as the user\'s device fingerprint, IP address, or location used for evaluating the risk of an unexpected event by Amazon Cognito advanced security.

#usernameString

The user name of the user for whom you want to enter a code to reset a forgotten password.

Returns:

  • (String)

    The user name of the user for whom you want to enter a code to reset a forgotten password.
