Describe the bug
We have a custom attribute in cognito that is of "number" type.
We'd like to use this attribute as part of owner authorization via the identityClaim attribute.
The field is stored in dynamo as a "Float" type.
In the vtl resolver however, the identityClaim is returned as a string, and so the owner authorization comparison fails (string compared to float) and so owner authorization never works.
I'll send example code / screenshot to [email protected]
Expected behavior
-
JWT Token decoding should respect cognito attribute type (something that is a number should be returned as number not string)
-
Owner authorization should work with both strings and numbers

Additional information
At minimum this should be documented in amplify cli docs, that owner authorization only works with string fields.
