Possible to retrieve user created date? #68

Closed andyfurniss4 closed 5 years ago

Me again.

I can see in Cognito that there's a 'Created Date' field but I can't figure out how to get hold of this value programatically. It's not returned in the collection attributes and I can't see a method to get it explicitly. Is it possible?

Hi,

Iirc, the creation date is not a cognito attribute, it is rather returned by calling the AdminGetUser api: https://docs.aws.amazon.com/cognito-user-identity-pools/latest/APIReference/API_AdminGetUser.html

You can look into implementing this by yourself if you are in a hurry (for this, use the CognitoUserPool instance available through the ServiceCollection, it contains the pool id property).

I am pinning this issue to track adding it into the CognitoUser class and the FindBy* methods of the UserManager but can not give an eta

This issue can be easily remedied by simply creating a created_at custom attribute and setting the value when creating the user.

I'll close this, as a workaround is available, we may pull this into v2
