Sign Out Federated(google) users

** Which Category is your question related to? ** AWS Amplify ** What AWS Services are you utilizing? ** Cognito ** Provide additional details e.g. code snippets **

Hello,

I am using AWS amplify to SignUp and SignIn my user pool users and federated users in the pool,

For Cognito User pool user’s I use,

Auth.signIn(this.username, this.password)

and for federated(Google) users to log in to the pool, I use,

Auth.federatedSignIn() method.

Now the issue is on SignOut.

When I do

Auth.signOut()

it only signOut users who had signIn with Auth.signIn(this.username, this.password) method.

it doesnt SignOut federated users.

Please help.

@Reenagrg100 the trick is using this property:

ephemeralWebSession (Boolean) | Prevent re-use cookies of previous session (openAuth only) [true/false]

It will not store cookies from Amplify, so whenever the federated UI is presented, it will be a fresh page. The library I shared with you is using Safari as a modal (when using the openAuth method). It’s the required method by Apple for them to approve your iOS app. I’m not sure if there is another library out there that can handle this feature, but you will need to further investigate in that case on your own, sorry.

Thank you so much, @cristhian-boc !! I know about this library to open the in-app browser. The same behaviour is achieved by react-native safari view library. Well I’ll look into it how can I achieve same in my case.

@csepulv the local storage is cleared automatically on signout call.

Sorry, but this is not working as expected. Local storage is not cleared automatically when calling Auth.signout().
