Question

I am trying to use aws api gateway authorizer with cognito user pool. It is working fine when i test using aws api gateway console.

But when i try enabling the auth

Answer 1

If you are not checking scope at OAuth Scopes in method execution block of API gateway it will only take id-token.

Once you will have set OAuth scope restriction on request it will start taking access token automatically.
