cognito-backup ๐ซโ๐พ
Amazon doesn't have any way of backing up their AWS Cognito User Pools and Groups.
So in my frustrating times working with AWS Cognito, I wrote this tool. cognito-backup
is a simple CLI for backing up the user data, and can also restore afterwards. Note: AWS has no way of extracting the passwords of your users so you need to store these separately ๐ต
Requirements
Requires node 12 or newer
Install
npm install -g cognito-backup
Usage
Backup all users in a single user pool:
cognito-backup backup-users <user-pool-id> <options>
Backup all users in all user pools for this account:
cognito-backup backup-all-users <options>
Restore users to a single user pool:
cognito-backup restore-users <user-pool-id> <temp-password>
Backup/export all groups in a single user pool:
cognito-backup backup-groups <user-pool-id> <options>
Restore/import groups to a single user pool (Note: run this before restoring users)
cognito-backup restore-groups <user-pool-id> <options>
Run cognito-backup
for complete usage.
Examples
cognito-backup backup-users eu-west-1_1_12345
cognito-backup backup-users eu-west-1_1_12345 --region eu-west-1 --file mypool.json
