I am developing an app in swift, and I use AWS mobile services for authentication and AWS Lambda to do some backend processing. I had everything working fine, and one day (after leaving the app for a month or so), it started throwing this error:
GetId failed. Error is [Error Domain=com.amazonaws.AWSCognitoIdentityProviderErrorDomain Code=-1000 "Authentication delegate not set" UserInfo {NSLocalizedDescription=Authentication delegate not set}]
Unable to refresh. Error is [Error Domain=com.amazonaws.AWSCognitoIdentityProviderErrorDomain Code=-1000 "Authentication delegate not set"
It's killing me, because it was already working. What could have changed?
In appDelegate, I have:
func application(_ application: UIApplication, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions launchOptions: [UIApplicationLaunchOptionsKey : Any]? = nil) -> Bool {
// Uncomment to turn on logging, look for "Welcome to AWS!" to confirm success
AWSDDLog.add(AWSDDTTYLogger.sharedInstance)
AWSDDLog.sharedInstance.logLevel = .error
// Instantiate AWSMobileClient to get AWS user credentials
return AWSMobileClient.sharedInstance().interceptApplication(application, didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:launchOptions)
}
It actually throws the error before I make any invocation, so I think the lines above may be triggering the problem?
To login, I do the following, in my main viewController:
override func viewDidLoad() {
super.viewDidLoad()
if !AWSSignInManager.sharedInstance().isLoggedIn {
presentAuthUIViewController()
}
else{
getCredentials()
}
...
}
func presentAuthUIViewController() {
let config = AWSAuthUIConfiguration()
config.enableUserPoolsUI = true
config.backgroundColor = UIColor.white
config.logoImage = #imageLiteral(resourceName: "logoQ")
config.isBackgroundColorFullScreen = true
config.canCancel = true
AWSAuthUIViewController.presentViewController(
with: self.navigationController!,
configuration: config, completionHandler: { (provider:
AWSSignInProvider, error: Error?) in
if error == nil {
self.getCredentials()
} else {
// end user faced error while loggin in, take any required action here.
}
})
}
func getCredentials() {
let serviceConfiguration = AWSServiceConfiguration(region: .USEast1, credentialsProvider: nil)
let userPoolConfiguration = AWSCognitoIdentityUserPoolConfiguration(clientId: "id",
clientSecret: "secret",
poolId: "id")
AWSCognitoIdentityUserPool.register(with: serviceConfiguration, userPoolConfiguration: userPoolConfiguration, forKey: "key")
let pool = AWSCognitoIdentityUserPool(forKey: "key")
if let username = pool.currentUser()?.username {
userName = username
}
It loggs in, and I retrieve the user name.
Any tips? I followed some of the instructions in other posts but they didn't work, plus what most disconcerts me is that it was working!
Thanks in advance
So, not 100% sure of what was going on, but as I understand it there was a problem with the credentials for the user in the user pool. I reset the password and all started working fine again!
If anyone needs more details just ask, and if anyone understands this better let me know..
