Request Syntax

response = client.create_resource_server(
    UserPoolId='string',
    Identifier='string',
    Name='string',
    Scopes=[
        {
            'ScopeName': 'string',
            'ScopeDescription': 'string'
        },
    ]
)
Parameters:

  • UserPoolId (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    The ID of the user pool where you want to create a resource server.

  • Identifier (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    A unique resource server identifier for the resource server. The identifier can be an API friendly name like solar-system-data. You can also set an API URL like https://solar-system-data-api.example.com as your identifier.

    Amazon Cognito represents scopes in the access token in the format $resource-server-identifier/$scope. Longer scope-identifier strings increase the size of your access tokens.

  • Name (string) –

    [REQUIRED]

    A friendly name for the resource server.

  • Scopes (list) –

    A list of custom scopes. Each scope is a key-value map with the keys ScopeName and ScopeDescription. The name of a custom scope is a combination of ScopeName and the resource server Name in this request, for example MyResourceServerName/MyScopeName.

    • (dict) –

      One custom scope associated with a user pool resource server. This data type is a member of ResourceServerScopeType. For more information, see Scopes, M2M, and API authorization with resource servers.

      This data type is a request parameter of CreateResourceServer and a response parameter of DescribeResourceServer.

      • ScopeName (string) – [REQUIRED]

        The name of the scope. Amazon Cognito renders custom scopes in the format resourceServerIdentifier/ScopeName. For example, if this parameter is exampleScope in the resource server with the identifier exampleResourceServer, you request and receive the scope exampleResourceServer/exampleScope.

      • ScopeDescription (string) – [REQUIRED]

        A friendly description of a custom scope.

Return type:

dict
