Description

When creating a Cognito identity provider, a user group is automatically created with some default options. This means that if I want to change the user group, I have to take the following actions -

• Put the aws_cognito_identity_provider in one module and the aws_cognito_user_group in another.
• Deploy all resources except for the user group - terraform apply -target module.elasticsearch -target module.coginto-idp. Ensure that the user pool ID and the group name are output.
• Import the user group - terraform import module.cognito-idp[0].aws_cognito_user_group.kibana {user_pool_id}/{group_name}.
• Deploy the user group resource - terraform apply -target module.cognito-user-group.

In this case, I need to update the role_arn argument. When the user group is automatically created, this argument is omitted.

New or Affected Resource(s)

• aws_cognito_identity_provider

Potential Terraform Configuration

My request is that we be allowed to create one or more user groups and then reference those groups when creating an identity provider. This would mean that a single terraform apply would be able to do everything.

resource "aws_cognito_user_group" "kibana" {
  description  = "Autogenerated group for users who sign in using Keycloak"
  name         = "${aws_cognito_user_pool.kibana.id}_Keycloak"
  user_pool_id = aws_cognito_user_pool.kibana.id
  role_arn     = aws_iam_role.kibana_master.arn
}

resource "aws_cognito_identity_provider" "keycloak" {
  user_pool_id  = aws_cognito_user_pool.kibana.id
  provider_name = "Keycloak"
  provider_type = "OIDC"

  provider_details = {
    ...
  }

  attribute_mapping = {
    ...
  }

  user_groups = [
    aws_cognito_user_group.kibana.id
  ]
}
