How to get user attributes (username, email, etc.) using cognito identity id

Question

I have AWS Cognito Identity Pool that is configured with Cognito User Pool as an authentication provider.

Assume I have identity ID of an identity in Cognito Identit

Answer 1

I faced the similar issue and after too much of scratching i was not able to find the exact way of pulling out the details. My usecase was to get the details in android APP. After looking into their AWSMobile client API code. I found below and it is working from me.

Log.i(TAG, "User Details"+ AWSMobileClient.getInstance().getUserAttributes().toString());

Recommendation - Try use AWSMobileclient incase you are using it for Android Development as this is new library that is recommended for development.
