Delete the user pool added by AWS Amplify

Viewed 5921

I'm developing a React Native app and using AWS Amplify with Amazon Cognito for authentication. I've added the authentication for the app using Amplify CLI (amplify add auth). The problem is I need to add/remove the required attributes for the sign up, but those cannot be changed after the user pool is created.

My question is how can I delete the currently added user pool using the CLI, and making sure that the changes are reflected in aws-exports.js?

I figured it out. As mentioned here, it's not in amplify-cli docs, but you can remove a single category (in this case auth) like this:

amplify remove <category>

So, in this case, it would be

amplify remove auth

And, then

amplify push
aws cognito-idp delete-user-pool --user-pool-id youruserpoolid
