Hi @inv-bismillahkhans,

Thanks for reporting. The current behavior of unlink expects a user pool to exist, else it would throw an error. I will discuss with the team on this particular use-case and get back to you.

I am facing the same issue, did you find a solution ?

[reeslabree]

likewise - can't reconnect a user pool because I can't unlink it, can't unlink it because it's gone

[sanghvian]

Same @abhi7cr - can you please provide an update on this ?

Amplify CLI is the recommended approach for making the required updates. I will close this ticket
