Add social provider sign-in

Prerequisites

An app setup according to the getting started walkthrough

When configuring social sign-in through the Amplify CLI, it's important to exercise caution when designating attributes as "required." Different social identity providers have varied scopes in terms of the information they respond back to Cognito with. User pool attributes that are initially set up as "required" cannot be changed later, and may require you to migrate the users or create a new user pool.

Setup Your Auth Provider

Create a developer account with Facebook.
Sign In with your Facebook credentials.
Choose My Apps from the top navigation bar, and on the page that loads choose Create App.
For your use case, choose Set up Facebook Login.
For platform, choose Website and select No, I'm not building a game.

On the left navigation bar, choose Settings and then Basic.

Configure Auth Category

Once you have the social provider configured, run the following in your project’s root folder

amplify add auth     ## "amplify update auth" if already configured

Choose the following options (the last steps are specific to Facebook here but are similar for other providers):

? Do you want to use the default authentication and security configuration?
    `Default configuration with Social Provider (Federation)`
? How do you want users to be able to sign in?
    `Username`
? Do you want to configure advanced settings?
    `No, I am done.`
? What domain name prefix do you want to use?
    `(default)`
? Enter your redirect signin URI:
    `myapp://callback/`

    `myapp://signout/`
? Do you want to add another redirect signout URI
? Select the social providers you want to configure for your user pool:
    `<choose your provider and follow the prompts to input the proper tokens>`

Run amplify push to publish your changes. Once finished, it will display an auto generated URL for your web UI. You can retrieve your user pool domain URL at anytime by running amplify status using the CLI.

You need to now inform your auth provider of this URL:

Click Save.

Federated sign-in does not invoke any Custom authentication challenge Lambda triggers, Migrate user Lambda trigger, Custom message Lambda trigger, or Custom sender Lambda triggers in your user pool. For information on the supported Lambda triggers refer to the AWS documentation

Update AndroidManifest.xml

Add the following activity and queries tag to your app's AndroidManifest.xml file, replacing myapp with your redirect URI prefix if necessary:

<application ...>
  <activity
      android:name="com.amplifyframework.auth.cognito.activities.HostedUIRedirectActivity"
      android:exported="true">
      <intent-filter>
          <action android:name="android.intent.action.VIEW" />
          <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
          <category android:name="android.intent.category.BROWSABLE" />
          <data android:scheme="myapp" />
      </intent-filter>
  </activity>
</application>

Sweet! You're now ready to launch sign in with your social provider's web UI.

For now, just add this method to the onCreate method of MainActivity with whatever provider you're using (shown with Facebook below):

// Replace facebook with your chosen auth provider such as google, amazon, or apple
Amplify.Auth.signInWithSocialWebUI(
    AuthProvider.facebook(),
    result -> Log.i("AuthQuickstart", result.toString()),
    error -> Log.e("AuthQuickstart", error.toString())

// Replace facebook with your chosen auth provider such as google, amazon, or apple
Amplify.Auth.signInWithSocialWebUI(
    AuthProvider.facebook(),
    { Log.i("AuthQuickstart", "Sign in OK: $it") },
    { Log.e("AuthQuickstart", "Sign in failed", it) }

    // Replace facebook with your chosen auth provider such as google, amazon, or apple
    val result = Amplify.Auth.signInWithSocialWebUI(AuthProvider.facebook(), this)
    Log.i("AuthQuickstart", "Sign in OK: $result")
} catch (error: AuthException) {
    Log.e("AuthQuickstart", "Sign in failed", error)

// Replace facebook with your chosen auth provider such as google, amazon, or apple
RxAmplify.Auth.signInWithSocialWebUI(AuthProvider.facebook(), this)
    .subscribe(
        result -> Log.i("AuthQuickstart", result.toString()),
        error -> Log.e("AuthQuickstart", error.toString())
