describe_user_pool(
    user_pool_id: UserPoolIdType,
    *,
    config_overrides: Optional[CognitoIdentityProviderClientConfig] = None,
) -> DescribeUserPoolResponse

Given a user pool ID, returns configuration information. This operation is useful when you want to inspect an existing user pool and programmatically replicate the configuration to another user pool.

Amazon Cognito evaluates Identity and Access Management (IAM) policies in requests for this API operation. For this operation, you must use IAM credentials to authorize requests, and you must grant yourself the corresponding IAM permission in a policy.

  • ResourceNotFoundException –

    This exception is thrown when the Amazon Cognito service can't find the requested resource.

  • TooManyRequestsException –

    This exception is thrown when the user has made too many requests for a given operation.
