Use AWS SDK

Amplify Android v1 is deprecated as of June 1st, 2024. No new features or bug fixes will be added. Dependencies may become outdated and potentially introduce compatibility issues.

Please use the latest version (v2) of Amplify Library for Android to get started. Refer to the upgrade guide for instructions on upgrading your application to the latest version.

Amplify libraries should be used for all new cloud connected applications. If you are currently using the AWS Mobile SDK for Android, you can access the documentation here.

For advanced use cases where Amplify does not provide the functionality you're looking for, you can retrieve the escape hatch to access the underlying SDK.

The escape hatch provides access to the underlying AWSMobileClient instance.

AWSMobileClient mobileClient = (AWSMobileClient) Amplify.Auth.getPlugin("awsCognitoAuthPlugin").getEscapeHatch();

val cognitoAuthPlugin = Amplify.Auth.getPlugin("awsCognitoAuthPlugin")
val mobileClient = cognitoAuthPlugin.escapeHatch as AWSMobileClient

val cognitoAuthPlugin = Amplify.Auth.getPlugin("awsCognitoAuthPlugin")
val mobileClient = cognitoAuthPlugin.escapeHatch as AWSMobileClient

AWSMobileClient mobileClient =
    (AWSMobileClient) RxAmplify.Auth.getPlugin("awsCognitoAuthPlugin").getEscapeHatch();

You can use the escape hatch to federatedSignIn with a valid token from other social providers. Find more details here

mobileClient.federatedSignIn(IdentityProvider.FACEBOOK.toString(), "<FACEBOOK_TOKEN_HERE>", new Callback<UserStateDetails>() {
    @Override
    public void onResult(final UserStateDetails userStateDetails) {
        //Handle the result
    @Override
    public void onError(Exception e) {
        Log.e(TAG, "sign-in error", e);
