AWS Cognito Switch User to Federated Account

Yes, it is. I'm assuming that Facebook is added directly to the Userpool as an IdP.

Splitting your query into 2 parts:

1. User signs up using username & password. Later, he wants to link his Facebook account
This is pretty easy. Give an option in your UI and use the AdminLinkProviderForUser API to link Facebook/Google account to the user. Now, when the user signs in using this Facebook/Google account next time, Cognito will treat it as the native user & generate token for the same. Of course, the Facebook info will be mentioned in the identities claim. If the user wants to remove this Facebook/Google link later, it is possible using the AdminDisableProviderForUser API call.

2. User signs up using Facebook
This is a bit tricky since Facebook login will automatically create a user in your Userpool with status EXTERNAL_PROVIDER (unlike native users who have CONFIRMED status). As the name suggests, this user can only be logged in using the relevant external provider - Facebook in this case. If the user wants to login using a username password, a new account will have to be created using SignUp API or AdminCreateUser API. Also, this account can not be linked to the previous Facebook account using AdminLinkProviderForUser because a pre-requisite is that no Facebook user with the same details (email etc.) should exist in the Userpool. But at this moment, we have an auto-created Facebook user with EXTERNAL_PROVIDER status.

So, in short, you would have to - create a new user using SignUp or AdminCreateUser API, delete the auto-created Facebook user & Finally link the Facebook account as mentioned in case 1.
