Cognito API - Add the ability to request an MFA SMS code be re-sent #5578

Closed alan-wint closed 2 weeks ago

alan-wint commented 2 months ago

Describe the feature

Sometimes a user will not get an MFA code sent by Cognito via SMS. Please add a method to request re-sending the MFA code via SMS.

Use Case

Sometimes a user will not get an MFA code sent by Cognito via SMS. This can be due to a multitude of reasons:

  1. The user had the phone number disabled (multi-SIM)
  2. The cellular network was down
  3. The reception was too poor
  4. The user was in flight mode

Proposed Solution

Add a method for requesting that the MFA code be re-sent via SMS. It should be rate-limited (configurable per-pool), to prevent abuse.

Other Information

There is definitely a demand for this across AWS products: https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-js/issues/3488 https://github.com/aws-amplify/amplify-js/issues/6676 We have a workaround which involves re-logging in, but its not really a good way to do things.

According to the comments, the Cognito team has their eyes in the Amplify tracking issue https://github.com/aws-amplify/amplify-js/issues/6676 -

Hello everyone, the Cognito team is collecting feedback since they are planning on enabling this feature. If you are open to having us reach out and get your feedback on our proposed experience, can you please send us an email to aws-amplify-customer@amazon.com with the subject of Resend MFA feedback

So I recommend to reach out to the Cognito team by sending them an email. This feature must be supported as a Cognito API in order to be available in the SDKs.

Please add your comments and thumbs ups in the issue Cognito team is tracking - https://github.com/aws-amplify/amplify-js/issues/6676 - or send an email as instructed.

Closing this, there's no action pending on the Java SDK team.
