amazon-cognito-auth-js Passwordless authentication

Hi Team,

Would it be possible to enable 'passwordless' flow as described in Tim Hunt's talk at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8DDIxqIW1sM&feature=youtu.be&t=3020 ?

Same applies to any other challenge-response authentication - is it available, or is it an upcoming feature? (I didn't get a chance to test that yet, just wanted to get a general sense)

Thanks

Yes, challenge based flows are on the roadmap.

@itrestian what is the status?

i am attempting to authenticate with a custom auth flow (see #25 https://github.com/aws/amazon-cognito-identity-js) and i am being told i have the incorrect username and password. i am fairly certain the username is correct.

edit: challenge answer did not match the challenge but the error thrown was 'Invalid Username or Password'

@yuntuowang this would require major changes or AWS cognito already have the API to do this kind of authentication?

Thank you!

Hi @guilhermedecampo, it is on our roadmap. At this point, it is hard to comment on ETA.

+1 It would be awesome to have. I guess I won't use Cognito as it's not shipped yet 😞.

It's actually doable @Jolg42

Thanks @VicFrolov! So I guess that if it's doable with the Amplify lib it should be doable here in the Cognito Auth SDK too but it's not implemented yet?
